You give people too much credit. It will be twilight.

And to throw in my two cents. I wouldn't mind a nonfiction poll. I think with the right amount of discussion it could be quite interesting and diverse (though I would keep it completely separate from this).

So long as it's fictional. You'll have to send your autobiographical selections directly to me Wink


Let's just say there are a lot of bridges to be under in Portland...



Anyways yeah I could be down for more of a poll like best movies instead of a tourney, which would be a little too daunting especially on a lot of schedules these days.

Would it be best to retitle as "Best Ever Novels"?

(Including graphic novels of course...)
