  [SynList] Weekly Synopses List for xx/yy/zz

Perhaps we might ask people to classify their fics by tone, e.g. as one
of: Spoof, comedy, drama, grim, or dark. 

I'll make that optional, I always find it hard to clasify my own fics, for
example. Comedy/drama? They sometimes border on parody, they do have grim
tones at times, it all gets a bit murky. Of course, I'll be asking that people
label lemons as such(heh, it'll probably get them more readers in the end,
I know what you hentais are really like), further tags such as [dark] would
be entirely the authors choice.

6) Synopses would be compiled both alphabetically and under Series, for
  example:

  Acting like a Zurk         by Jeff Flogle <jeff@blah.com>
  
  This fic is about blah blah...

  Fleecing a rabbit          by Anthony Gerbil <angerbil@ral.com>

Hey, I missed these fics. Could someone send 'em to me? :-)

See? Now you know why we need something like this. Not only does it help
people choose prioraties, but if they somehow miss something, they can 
find out about it in the Synopses List.

Gary (well, I *tried* E-mailing these addresses...)

Their addresses probably melted under the 200-posts-a-day heat. ^_-
Pity you missed those fics, they were incredible. (send their fics? I 
couldn't do THAT, that's the author's responsibility. :P  )
