Introduction

Inspired by fanfic100, icons100, and the many other 100 communities on LiveJournal, we've created a recommendation community with the same challenge aspect. Fifty recs is the ultimate goal, but there are benchmarks at ten, twenty, thirty, forty and fifty recs. That way, if you've picked a small fandom, or a new fandom, or a rare pairing you can still play. We also know that many fandoms/pairings/characters don't lend themselves well to all the prompts (ie-It wouldn't be fair to ask someone reccing Lord Voldemort/Lucius Malfoy to pick a humorous story). The point is good fic recs in a multitude of fandoms, styles and pairings. It's not to post a story you don't really like in order make your fifty rec goal.[1]
