I didn't make a note of it, but if I remember, a couple of days ago,
the number of stories with 2 reviews or less was well over 700 of the
1226 nominated. As of now, it's down to 686.
- browsing the pages, it looks like most of them do have a review or
two,
...I'm not seeing any zeros!! (Is that true or did I miss some?)
<shakes pom-poms and waggels butt in a happy dance>
Keep up the good work!!
(**remember the pink ones are deleted stories.)

When I get my ballots for a particular category, the pink doesn't show
up, but it may also be that neither do the withdrawn stories.
Certainly the words "No stories withdrawn on this page" have appeared
before.

read 638 or something.
if you go to 'overview' and 'browse stories' and look at the lower
filter, you have several options, most of them are only for stories
you've reviewd, but I'm pretty sure the bottom one "stories with 2
reviews or less" is for all of the stories. ...maybe everyone
doesn't have that option?
<now more confused than ever>

*sigh* again. Ok, I spoke too soon. There are some stories (not in
pink) that are showing up that I haven't entered a review for, as I
can see from the Actions menu on the right. Which explains why that "2
or fewer" filter gives me more pages of reviewed stories than the one
that shows me every review I've done so far. So it is, weirdly,
independent of me, even though nothing in that filter should be,
supposedly, unless the filter override warned to be in place also
overrides the filter that attaches everything to my ID.
So I don't get it. Either the stories without any reviews yet just
*happen* to be clustered in the middle of the 28 pages of fics
generated by the "2 or fewer reviews" filter, or it's a question to
pose to tech support.

Well, my poem "The Council of Elrond" was still showing 0 reviews this
morning. There may be draft or tentative reviews for it, but it doesn't have any
final reviews.
But great work!

have ever reviewed. I found some nice stories I had never seen before.

I wrote to Anthony, to point out the problem and he said the filter queried
the review database and not the story database, so in effect a story has to
have a review in order to show up in the filter.
