[kinkfest-mod.livejournal.com]

Your mods have a stats kink. So, indulge us. ;)
As we mentioned earlier, there were 92 fic and art created for this year's fest. 82 of those were NC-17. ;)

Here are a few more stats for us you to get off on:

By Pairings:
Harry/Draco (27) and Draco/Hermione (13) were the most popular pairings.
They were followed by Ginny/Harry (3) and surprise pairing Sirius/Severus (3).
Six pairings had 2 fics written for them: Draco/Theodore, Harry/Severus, Harry/Sirius, James/Albus Severus, Lorcan/Lysander, and Remus/Sirius.

In general stories were written with 41 different pairings, with 14 cross-gen pairings (mostly Harry's generation with the Marauder generation), 4 next-gen pairings and 4 Maurauder generation pairings.

Of the 5 threesomes, four had either Draco or Harry or both in them.

In all the stories, 18 het pairings, 6 femslash pairings and 22 slash pairings were featured. Hermione was the most popular character in the het stories, Pansy in the femslash stories (she features in 5 of the 6 stories), and Harry in the slash pairings.

By Generation
Kink fics crossed over all generations. The most popular being Harry’s generation with 77 fic/art including at least one character from that generation. 11 fic/art featured at least one next gen character in the pairing. 18 fic/art featured at least one Marauder Era character in the pairing.

By Length:

Awesome stats! Wow, Pansy is the big surprise for femslash. And really nice word count distribution. I wouldn't have expected so many long fics. Congratulations on a fest well run!

Pansy is certainly rising in popularity!

And Harry's such a little slut. This fest needed more male Weasley though. Next year I vow to write more kinky!Weasleys *nods*

It was a fab fest though, lots of variety and great commenting too. Thanks for running it -see you again next year ;)

Interesting...
I actually have an idea for a statistics-fic, it's not kinky though - but I'm sure I can correct that mistake...

I think I wrote the longest fic two years in a row ;(

I solemnly swear to write short PWP next year!!!

Thank you for the stats! They're so interesting :)

Great job, mods!

So all that data just confirmed that it was a super successful year and everyone who contributed lovely fic and art should be proud? I know I enjoyed reading/seeing almost all of it. :) Great job everyone and thanks mods for making everything super easy to find/enjoy!

I can't wait to do this next year. Your data on Sirius/Harry is going to change. ;-) :-)

*cough*

I know everyone's absorbed in Hols and all (hell, I am!), but I keep checking this comm anyway, hoping to see some form of life XD We're still having kinkfest this year, I hope? *bobs hopefully*
