Massive Kudos for AO3!

[rusty_armour]

Although I've only contributed 35 works towards this total (the last one being just over a year ago), I'm still thrilled about this milestone and proud to be a part of AO3! Congratulations to everyone who has helped AO3 get this far!

A great milestone for AO3! I think 35 works, of high quality, is a big deal, so congratulations to you for your contribution!

A great milestone for AO3!

I'm glad you think so! I really think it's a testament to their success! :-)

Well...I wouldn't say they were all high quality, but I appreciate your extremely kind compliment all the same! Thank you! :-D

Here's to another 1,000,000! :)

Here, here! And congratulations on the role you've played in helping AO3 reach this milestone! :-D

*joins you in celebrating*

yay for you and AO3!

[rusty-armour.livejournal.com]

Well, you have a ton more fic on AO3 than I do, so I should really be saying yay for you! And you should definitely be celebrating! You've earned it! :-D

Wow. I had no idea so many fanworks had been posted. That's really something to celebrate! I checked my account and it turns out I have contributed 29 fics. Well done on your 35 fics!

And speaking of something else fandom-related - we have been able to find Murdoch Mysteries on Netflix. I especially loved that episode when Murdoch had to go under cover as a gay man. It was hilarious.

It is a pretty staggering statistic! I mean, I've read a lot of fic on AO3 over the years, but it's nothing compared to the number of fanworks that have been posted! As you say, it really is something to celebrate! :-)

I checked my account and it turns out I have contributed 29 fics. Well done on your 35 fics!

Ah, yes, but you haven't posted all of your fic on AO3, while I've posted most of mine. In terms of completed fic, you beat me hands down! You're the one who should be congratulated! :-D

Oh, that's wonderful! I'm so glad you've been enjoying the series! :-) Watching Murdoch go under cover as a gay man was hilarious. I think one of the show's strengths is its comedy.

Wow, 1 million is quite a few.

I have a count of 35 as well, although I suppose it is technically 36... one is still marked anon. I hit that a little more recently with my rather ambitious Yuletide. :)

Yes, one million is quite a few. *g* Congratulations for your own role in reaching this milestone. :-)

Congrats on the thirty-five! A mere sixteen on my part (and most pretty short). However, I have 204 subscriptions! I wonder what the record for subscriptions is? I'm sure I'm a piker, but I'd love to know.

YAY for a million works! It's so strange to think of a time when it didn't exist!

[jackycomelately.livejournal.com]

I mean I've subscribed to 204 people, not that 204 people have subscribed to me! Hee! Although actually I loved to know that number as well (who the top names are).

[rusty-armour.livejournal.com]

Hee, hee, hee! I thought that was probably what you meant -- not that you don't deserve to have 204 people subscribed to you! :-) It would be interesting to know what the number is. I certainly wouldn't make that list. I doubt that there are even ten people subscribed to me. *g*

Congrats on the thirty-five! A mere sixteen on my part (and most pretty short).

And congrats on your sixteen! I think sixteen is an awesome number considering that you haven't been writing fic that long. My 35 represents more years of fic than I'd care to say. *g*

However, I have 204 subscriptions! I wonder what the record for subscriptions is? I'm sure I'm a piker, but I'd love to know.

If 204 isn't the record, it should be! That is seriously impressive loyalty on your part! :-D I only have 8 subscriptions -- and at least a couple of those were me clicking on "subscription" by accident when downloading fic. I do have 95 bookmarks, which isn't as impressive as 204 subscriptions, I know. *g*

YAY for a million works! It's so strange to think of a time when it didn't exist!

I KNOW! I'm not sure how I even managed to find fic before AO3. I'm there practically every day at some point to check my favourite tags. May AO3 have millions and millions more fanworks in the future! :-)
