The Big Reveal!

This is it, Exchangelings! Look at all those beautiful bylines!

( The Big Reveal )

You may now take your bows, fangirl/boy openly, thank each other face to face, publicly honour your betas, and repost with glee to the four winds. (But especially to the Good Omens Library.)

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank my amazing co-mods, waxbean and vulgarweed and double-thank our pinch-hitters who came through for us by creating such wonderful gifts in an incredibly brief period of time.

I'd also like to honour our ultimate guessing champions, sticktothestory for fic and littlewolfstar for art. Well done, you two!

And for everyone who's still working their way through the bounty, feedback is still appreciated whether the author/artist is anonymous or not...

Stay tuned, everyone, for the stats post, and we'll see you next year!

The Great Stats Post

For those who are interested, here's how the stats break down:

2005: 48 total gifts produced and given by 44 unique artists and authors

2006: 66 total gifts produced and given; 9 people created more than one gift, 3 people joined as pinch-hitters

2007: 74 total gifts produced and given; 4 people created more than one gift ⁽¹⁾; 4 people joined as pinch-hitters ⁽²⁾; 4 people entirely failed to thank their gifters; and 7 people flaked ⁽³⁾ out of 75 original participants (about 10%). The non-thankers and flakes are thus banned from participating next year.

And: 11 people have participated in all three exchanges so far.

1. Many thanks to refche, emerald_embers, googlebrat, and quantum_witch

2. Many thanks to sticktothestory, xylodemon, eldanis, and violet_quill

3. People who dropped out officially with notification are not classed as flakes, so don't panic! If you're really not sure, e-mail us privately at goodomens_exchange (at) gmail (dot) com and we'll be glad to let you know which category you fall under.
