Hi Ainae,
I know this year we didn't allow NC17 stories to compete. I think
there's good reasons to consider changing that, but before I presented
them I wanted to ask: is this one of those topics that's not open for
discussion? If so, I'll accept it; if not, I'll present my reasons for
why I think they maybe should be allowed.

If we allowed NC-17 stories, we'd probably have to make this an adult
Yahoo-Group and I chose not to do that.

I don't think that's necessarily a problem... we aren't posting the
stories here. I think there might be a problem with posting links to
adult material, but at Henneth_Annun you can SSP NC17 material so long
as you don't post an exact link. You can post a description such as
"available in HASA Beta under the name Marta" or whatnot. Maybe for
NC17 stories we could just give the name of the archive where the
story is, and people could go find it without a direct link? Shouldn't
be very hard if they have the title and author's name
