New Archive! Pimp-pimp

Tien is running it, and I've tried it out.
It's very efficient, easy to navigate. FF.net without the immense size and pop-ups. There are some bugs here and there that Tien is working on.
Multi-fandom, plus original work.
It's by invitation only. You can be invited by Tien, invited by a current author, or put your email address in a request in the Forums, with a link to an example of your writing.
The goal appears to be to have an ff.net-style archive with only high-quality stories.
It will accept R and NC-17 rated stories soon (within the next couple of weeks). She is moving it to a new server that will allow this.
In the meantime I've uploaded all my 'First Signs of Magic' and 'Your Friendly Neighborhood Death Eater' -type stories. I'll pestering my friends (i.e. people that barely know me, but I managed to lay my hands on their email addresses and I love their stories ;) to stuff the archive with stories I like.
The only downside appears to be the name, which reminds me of 'Skynet' from Terminator 2. Eeep.
CLS stories are overlooked and reap few reviews. We discussed this a week or so ago. I told her that the same happens with my LotR fics - they build slow, which means the 'quick fix' readers (90% of those on the internet) bail halfway through. Which is shame, because her work is really powerful. So I passed her name along to Tien, who checked them out. She loved them, and has sent CLS an invitation to the archive. *Icarus beams... this is gonna make her day....*

epicycle responded to my review of Draco Veritas from, oh, months ago. Probably January. She's been reading 'Primer to the Dark Arts.' Likes the Harry/Ron. Really -? No kidding -?! Wow.
People really like my stories... well. I'll be damned.
I really never thought anyone would read them.
