AO3 hit count meme

[madeleone]

The deal is to pull up the stories that you have on AO3 (would work for any archive with hit counts enabled though) to see which are the top 10 in terms of hits. Then, I guess the idea is later you compare to see what changes there are. I have 24 posted so far but many are little drabbles or drabble series.

One thing I notice right now is that the top 4 fics all have LM/HG and or LM/HG/SS. The rest (# 5 thru 10) are all SS/HG fics. So even though I personally consider SS/HG my OTP right now my LM fics are getting higher hits. (Is Lucius gaining the upper hand over Severus in the competition for Hermione?) Hmmm... May have to check out the hit count at ffnet and see if this is a trend or just random.


I noticed a couple people have complaints about difficulty of posting at AO3 but I have never had a big problem posting things there. Or at least no more than at any other site. What is the difficulty, I wonder?

BTW: If anyone needs one, I have an invite available. :)
