Got to say this works! They did a great job! Don't know what I was expecting, but this surpassed it. I guess I am unemployed as a master list maintainer now!

It's really cool that they did this, but I personally prefer the old way. Theirs is really hard to navigate from a phone.

They have some phone specific instructions there. I think turning the phone its side might help a lot. I guess I will try using my phone and take a look. Works great on my comp.

Yeah, I see what you mean, but it is not that bad, it scrolls fast. Maybe use the contact form to suggest something to them?

Like anything, it will take some getting used to - but as someone who has spent no-kidding *hundreds* of hours maintaining a ML (and that was when there were only 4 contests and they weren't this big) - even if it does end up being a tiny bit less jazzy than the "old way" (I suspect it wont - just gotta get acclimated) - it will be fantastic for the listmamas and papas out there to actually get to use and enjoy the forums. The ML reliably atE a week to ten days of my life every round and quickly grew to the point that I wasn't able to do anything else. Not a complaint - I loved every bit of it - but a reminder that "a minor inconvenience, spread across hundreds of people" is a fair trade. :) My congrats to all of the list-mamas and list-papas out there who spread this concept out from its FFC origins to every corner of NYCM. When writers write, they "own" their stuff. When fanfic is so awesome it becomes canon - that's some S***, right there. Y'all turned the list from 'a crazy idea that worked' into NYCM canon, and generations of new NYCMers will benefit. Edited by nixie - 19 Oct 2021 at 11:39pm |

Point taken -- I didn't mean to seem ungrateful for all the work put in! I just mostly meant that it's easier to navigate as a static post than a windowed, scrollable document. I absolutely appreciate and am in perpetual awe of all of you potent listomancers!

I've read SO many stories already... and it's only been a few days. I mean, I know 250s are pretty short, but I almost never get a chance to read stories in the first week when (wo)manning a Master List. It's like Christmas. :)

Yup! And if my memory serves me it was Nixie that started the first list. So, many thanks to Nixie!

I like the new master list too, especially on my computer. On Android, it's easier to navigate if you check the "desktop site" option.
