We'll be editing the posts now to put all the author/artist and beta information in there as well, but it's going to take some time. Please have a little patience; we'll get there.

WHAAAAAAAT. I guessed penaltywaltz for Got Milk, and everyone else agreed with my guess and we all walked straight off a cliff that did not lead anywhere even close to language_escapes!

Aaaaaaaand *drumroll* congratulations to iwantthatcoat for being the single sneakiest human on the planet!

[iwantthatcoat]

I am honored by the title and intend to wear it well until it is likely stolen from me next Holmestice!

[venusinthenight]

I definitely wouldn't have guessed language_escapes for "Got Milk". SNEAKY SNEAKY.

[starfishstar]

I know! I made the same mistaken deduction about Elementary + art, and never looked back... language_escapes is always one of those sneaky chameleons around these parts.

(And yes, to respond to you at last, 221B Baker Towers was me! Of course it was! I'm so bad at disguising myself. I'm SO PLEASED by how we've increased that 'verses works on AO3 by, what, 40%? Yayyy.)

[tei]

It did occur to me that someone who didn’t offer art could have made Got Milk, but then it opened up so many possibilities that I would have had no guesses at all.

And YAY, that is a large percentage! 😊

[iwantthatcoat]

I adored both the 221B Baker Towers fics and I have never heard of it before! Where does it come from???

[language_escapes]

Muahahahahaha!

Although, y'know, to be fair to everyone guessing - I am openly REALLY BAD AT ART. I have no skill for it whatsoever. What I DO have is access to a basic graphic design program that I have to use at my job, and the login information memorized, so...

But I'm glad I wasn't easy to figure out!

[starfishstar]

iwantthatcoat, did you create a separate AO3 name SOLELY so you could leave a misdirecting comment on your own fic???

YOU WIN HOLMESTICE. :D

[sanguinity]

omfg, they did, they did, they did, and I've been howling with laughter ever since I first understood what they did and why! FOR WEEKS NOW I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE REST OF YOU TO FIND OUT.

Never again will someone be able to blithely say "but they kudosed it" on the guessing post...! Never. Again. About anyone. Not without the niggling thread of doubt...

[iwantthatcoat]

Well—- Ummmm—- Not SOLEY. I mean, I do intend to publish non-fandom works under that name... eventually. But—

Ok, yeah. Yeah I did.

And I think that you got it anyway (even if it was strictly impossible...or at least *highly improbable*) means you found me out.

[starfishstar]

Well, I think we all agree that iwantthatcoat wins this year's award for Holmesian Disguise, and that language_escapes is an un-catchable chameleon...and colebaltblue is also an un-catchable chameleon...and so is graycardinal... Gosh, what is this a chameleon sanctuary?

But another person snuck something past us, too: I had phoenixfalls placed for my own My Dearly Beloved Detective fic (thank you!) and never thought that maybe phoenixfalls, rather than keenir, wrote the Elementary pinch-hit as well. Nice!

Unfortunately I have to leave now, and I still owe a bunch of you responses, but back later; and once again this has been SO MUCH FUN! Thank you, mods!!

[phoenixfalls]

See, I was thinking that the combination of Elementary rarepair plus mature/explicit rating made Hollow Moon obviously me, and was amazed that you picked up on my MDBD titling habits to guess that one for me instead! :D

[orchid314]

Many thanks to the mods for running such a wonderful exchange and to mightymads for creating such a fantastic gift. I will definitely be back next year. Happy Solstice and Holmestice!

[sanguinity]

Oh, good! I'm glad you enjoyed yourself!

btw, we run the exchange twice a year -- you could come back and do it again as soon as the summer!

[mightymads]

I’m really happy that you liked the gift! (I was somewhat worried about it since I participated for the first time).

[alexcat]

Thanks again to lamplighter1890 for such a great fic! I have been in this exchange several times and realized that I don't actually know any of you. *Waves* Hello!

[milverton]

Hi :)) Same here. I participated one other time, under another username, a couple of years ago; glad I decided to give it another go. Getting to know y'all will probably improve my guessing post game next round....

[lamplighter1890]

Hi Alexcat, you are very welcome and I'm sorry my reply is soooo delinquent! I haven't been on any boards since New Year.

[elwinglyre]

I was right about a_different_equation, but so, so, wrong about my video and gift video! I got stumped! Thanks so much pagimag or two of the best video I've ever seen. You gave me inspiration!

[milverton]

Thanks again for my fic, fridaythegowerstreetcat! :d

This was definitely a highlight of the holiday season. Thank you, mods, for putting it all together. Looking forward to participating again!

[write_out]

So many great works this round! Thanks to everyone for participating and an extra big thank you to the mods for taking such good of us and keeping this exchange running so smoothly!

Now I'm off to get caught up!

[scfrankles]

Congratulations to everyone for their creativity and for their sneakiness! (I have never been so confused...)

And thank you to the mods for all their hard work ^___^

[lamplighter1890]

Yes! ditto for mods, and thank you SCFRANKLES for the great story you wrote for me!

[luthienberen]

Thank you for hosting and organising the entire event! It was super fun. My first Holmestice and definitely will return again :)

I am eager to go through the fanworks properly now for there is so much to choose. Thanks everyone for the great time!

[iwantthatcoat]

This was all so much fun! Thank you to everyone (esp the dear mods) ! My ego has been thoroughly bolstered in preparation for the new year by having been compared to some great writers. And I relish the opportunity to be truly sneaky. My real life demands such honesty that it really is wonderful to have an excuse to turn the deception up to 11.

Sadly, my new job is making it difficult to read and commemt on all the fic in the manner they deserve, but I will catch up!
