Okay, here's an order for everyone:

Since it seems my start into the Ijiyatsu world is received pretty well, I would like for everyone to think about what they want their character in the Librarian Squad to be like. Because that would be important when I, or someone, wants to write more about the Librarian Squad.
(And it would help Sukima as reference material, who will likely be the one to draw a picture of our Squad for us, if we behave nicely  ;) )

So if you have any ideas or wishes what your character should be like (species, habits, personality, powers...), then write that down and maybe post it in the Librarian Stories thread I made.You could also make it a story if you want, everything is welcome.
If you don't want to do that, or don't care, then your character will be subject to author arbitrariness once they appear in any story. ;D

Here I officially lay claim to Ijiyatsu journalist. In the same spirit of my Gensokyan counterpart, expect my news to uncover the truth, even if it's not accurate.

"Human history and growth are both linked closely to strife. Without conflict, humanity would have no impetus for growth. When humans are satisfied with their present condition, they may as well give up on life."

Shouldn't you rather claim that in the 'Writer Invitation' thread? But disregarding that, I look forward to your newspaper, Tengu. :D

Okay, in light of recent events, I have decided to take the Ijiyatsu-category out again and have numbered the two works from this category normally as works #107 and #108.
I would suggest a new genre named 'MotK' for stories based on this forum to label works like those two.

This doesn't mean our personification of the Librarians has ended, quite the contrary. The fun's just about to start >:3

Sakana, I think it might be time to set some kind of deadline for ourselves, or we're never going to get this done. :V
It can be flexible, I just think we should have a date to work towards.

Start posting the summaries that have been completed, and let the Librarians finish sending in the rest.

Better to have a few of 'em up so the people browsing the Library have SOME kind of ideas as to what each story is about, rather than a promise and hot air.

Esifex: While your proposal sounds reasonable, it has a flaw: The list of summaries will have to be done by Ruro and me, but we two are also the ones who still have stuff to read, so it might rather delay the completion a bit.

I'd say we go with deadline:
Exactly three days from now, Tuesday midnight. At that time, I vow I will have completed all my summaries, and so should everyone who has some left.
And someone please take care of the still unassigned works as well!
After that, we'll start to go over the summaries and check for consistent formatting/ use of genres and so on.
That won't take too long I hope, since everyone has been working diligently.

If we do so, we should have the final list with all summaries up until next Friday.
That's the plan, and we're gonna go through with it.


EDIT: Deadline has been extended to exactly one week from now. Next Saturday, at midnight, the list shall be drenched in green. Work on the final listing will probably take place Sunday then.
It's a more reasonable schedule then before, since I ignored that not everyone has holidays like I do here >_<

EDIT: Added Ruro's Shorts thread as well. Why didn't you tell me you split stuff off into an own thread? (>_<)

It's an order. I'll smack anyone over the head with my tuna that doesn't do it  :D

I see you've gotten used to your new powers already, Rou and Chaore. Nice work.
Also, thanks to Tyltalis for sending two more summaries (one for a work that wasn't even on the list until a moment ago  :V) and reminding me that I missed to mark two other works he had summarized in green.
That list is looking good now, and I will make sure that Everlasting Wanderers and Blood Diary of Remilia are gonna go green tomorrow.

Edit: And I just noticed, we made a Librarian-post-chain right now. We can actually take on the Janitors like this  :V

I don't know why we'd ever want to, though!dibs on broom breaker

Seeing as a 'work' of mine is in the librarian Megathread, should I avoid summarizing it by default? If not, I'll crash through anything that isn't summarized in the unassigned section tommorow.

I actually don't think it would matter if you summarized the Librarian thread, because it only needs a very general description anyway, BUT: We made some rules and we're gonna stay true to them till the end, so you, Ruro and me are not allowed to summarize that one thread.
The rest, you can take.

Two works, #113 and #114 added. Also several more works marked thanks to Esifex.

EDIT: Also added the 'Weekly Short Writing Challenge' to the list, in the no-need-for-summaries group

As I said, I'll do that with Ruro presumably on Sunday. I can understand how eager you are to finally see some results, but please be patient for three more days.

I'll go over the assignments again tonight and send reminders to the people who have yet to submit work.

If someone really can't make it for some reason: Say it!

We won't bite anyone's head off, rather we can then reassign the work in time so it will be done till Sunday.

I'll see to it that I can at least take two or three of the new unassigned ones myself, so that Chaore won't do all of it by himself.

There is no story that can escape from my summarization. +_+!

All unassigned works currently on the list are now summarized. Anything remaining is because the rest of you are LAZY.

Thanks Rou and Chaore, you two are great.
Looks like we'll make our deadline.
I'll look into the remaining unsummarized works and send out reminders right now.

Anything remaining is because the rest of you are LAZY.

Well, I finally finished my own list at least >_<

Okay, after looking over the list again, here's what's left to do:

There's currently six unsummarized works. Two of them are still assigned. Those are 'Thoughts End' and 'Yama of Xanadu' which belong to Ruro and Esifex respectively. If one of you thinks you can't make it till tonight, just post it here so that someone else can take over, but I guess that won't be neccessary.

The other four works were ones the original summarizer had problems with, so they are free for everyone to take. Here are the works in question:

#065
Name:      Touhou Kuroneko ~ The Black Cat from the Outside World
Author:   [K] Merlin Prismriver
Length:   Medium

#007
Name:      Welcome, to My Delusion
Author:   Zer0Axiom
Length:   Short

#033
Name:      The Twilight Spark Zone
Author:   Stein
Length:   Long

#073
Name:      Rou's Random Shorts
Author:   Roukanken
Length:   Long, contains a lot of small works


I'd especially like to ask for someone to take over the long works.
I'll try to look into the other two myself, but I can't make any promises. If they are not marked in about eight hours, then I didn't make it.
