Reseeding Progress Report: FINISHED!
First of all we have some old pieces from JNW550: the two parts of Titaness , orignally published under his old alias of Stoneyman, as well as his short Megan's Day Off . If you like absurdly overpowered girls, these are the stories for you.
Also we have back a couple of classics from Argonaut: Snow Angel and the first installment of Mightora (completed with a link to the original cartoon and an awesome illustration by TGK, colored by Lfan).
Happy reading, everyone.

Kudos!

Well thanks to you, but the big one is still a couple of steps away.

For you to enjoy we have now:
All by our friend Ace191. I'm also pleased to say that we now have all his production from the old site back online (correct me if I'm wrong).
Also, for all the fans of mythology and medieval fantasy stories we have a boatload of stories by Argo:
- How Atalanta Kept the Bridge (part I , II , III )
- The Labours of Atalanta: Prologue
- Damsels and Dragons
Damsels and Dragons is also a sequel/homage to Anterion's Sebia , which was also reseeded.

Both of them are violent and unpleasant.

Several months ago when we had the horrible virus issues I must admit that I was pretty down. I was depressed about the shape our library was in, and I had just started working with NJAE to reseed TSOS when that hit. I thought it was a pretty terrible thing at the time, but now I think that it was the best thing that has ever happened to our site.
I know that it was a incredible pain in the ass for Fats in terms of time and money, but I think it also brought out the fact that taking care of a site like this is not just a job for one or two folks. I have really been impressed by all the people with the necessary skills who have stepped up to the plate to help out. The site is now better than ever and is continuing to improve daily.
I really would like to contribute more. I have several irons in the fire right now along with 3 TGK Pics to go along with them. Unfortunately, every time I think I am getting ahead at work, I get overloaded again. I am going to try to finish the two stories I have going now before starting on a third project that I would like to do. As usual, I have more ideas than time to complete them.
Once again, I just want to thank everyone who has pitched in to help dig us out of our most recent giant hole. I need to do a couple of
chores around the house today and then head into work. Maybe I will get a little time tonight to get back to writing.

First of all Ace, you're welcome.
Aside from that I think that the virus was something of mixed blessing. It was a pain, but it gave us the chance to finally reorganize the Library and to make it into what it was always meant to be.
As for contributing, I would love to read more of yours and, believe me, I knwo how you feel. I have at least 3-4 stories I want to write down, but I can't find the right moment to do it.

My Turn Now by Ace191 (and I correct my previous statement, now we have the full complement of Ace's works)
Payback's a Bitch by Argo
21st Century Magic: Gotcha! by YAGS.
Also we will get a Library shelf dedicated to the 21st Century Magic series running in the next days.

We got not one, not two, but three stories by Argo back in the Library (which should round up all his past entries).
So for your enjoyment we have:
Mask of Zorro [Revised] (a supergirl in a franchise I've never thought could host one)
TF4000 - Three Months Later
Finally we got Only a Movie a one time collaboration between Argo and Brad328.
About this one. I apologize to Brad for filing the story only under Argo's name, but the current version of the Library doesn't seem to support multiple authors.

Some of my own stories I'd practically forgotten about myself!
I'm glad to see "Birthday Wish" in the Library. Some of my earlier stories make me cringe now, but I've always been pleased with that one.
Do other authors have favorites among their own stories?

To make up for the time I finished another round up with the four chapters of JNW550's More Than Mortal
And the whole story is also shelf-worthy

You mean this?
When it comes to reseeding stories, we usually adapt the creation time of the story to fit it's original post time. This usually means that reseeds don't show up in the new stories ticker.
On that note I added a new Classic Sort Menu that sorts the stories by the amount of hits. Since they're in ascending order, the most popular (meaning having the most hits) stories are at the very buttom, while freshly submitted story will show up at the top regardless of the date we apply in the backend.
Here's a link that shows that the reseeded stories didn't get as much attention as new stories would have.

Also after submitting a story a moderator/admin/librarian must revise and approve it.
As Njae said the reseeded stories are dated back to their original appearence on this site (if any). This is the main reason I started this topic: to give those classic stories a little more time in the sun.

Please forgive me. I have the next two chapters half-written with a TGK Pic for one of them. I will make time in my schedule to get those two completed ASAP.

Turnabout is one of my all-time favourite stories. Am looking forward to reading more of it soon.

Since I got only one comment when I posted Chapters 13-14, I though no one was interested which subdued my motivation to work on it. I still can't believe that chapters 13 and 14 have 1300 hits, and the two installments prior had over 200O each.

This I would love to see. I was under the impression that the series was over. But now I think I can see at least two gaps for it to continue.

I'm glad that the Sort by Popularity view already had some positive effect if it motivates you to finish your story.

For today we have a double round-up special with DKC's Premeditated Providence (a personal favorite) and CavemanNinjaJoe's The Experiment Part 2 .
These two rounds up all the old entries from these two authors.
Once again, my compliments to CMJ for submitting the 300th entry.

A fair warning, some of these stories are a bit more brutal than our usual stuff and many skid dangerously close to NSFW territory.
As a personal recomendation, I think that the first three on the list are the best.
