Guessing Post

[holmesticemods]

Thank you so much for another wonderful round of Holmestice! The mods want to say THANK YOU to all the creators who joined us for this, our twentieth round -- especially given how tumultuous these last months have been. Being in this community with you is a joy and an honour.

Reveals and the Master List go up on June 20th. Until then, please enjoy and comment on all the lovely fanworks. Creators, please do NOT respond to Dreamwidth comments or post your works elsewhere on the Internet until reveals go up in the community. You may of course reply to comments on AO3, which preserves your anonymity.

In the meanwhile, stay tuned: treats are coming up! For anyone thinking of making a treat, we will accept treats right through until reveals, so if there's a prompt that inspires you, please have at it! Just use the regular submission guidelines and send your headers to holmesticemods@gmail.com.

If you'd like to guess who created what in this round, here's a list of all the contributors for the main gifts. (You'll have to put in some extra work to guess the treat-makers!) Go ahead and take a guess! It's all in good fun.

The thing is, if someone had handed me this fic without any other context and said, "Who do you think wrote this?" I would never have guessed it was by you. But you know how it is - a list of 34 creations and a list of 34 creators and you must have created something, and suddenly my chances of picking you out go up enormously. Only a handful of people were likely to have written it and I knew most of them had been having difficulties with deadlines so they were unlikely to have written my early bird gift and I'd assigned most of them elsewhere anyway. You ended up being the logical choice, which overrode my gut feeling that you and puns don't go together.

I am sorry that you didn't get the glory of going undetected though, after all that flaming work :P

Heh. I should have picked up one of those pinch hits. Let you guess me for the second work, while I glided silently under your radar with the first...

Ah, well! The best laid plans!
