Em City Pairings Page -- alternate links and stuff

A recent post at the [community profile] oz_rapsheet planted this nugget in my brain. These are fics posted at the Em City pairings site. Links directly to the site can be iffy since it's through the archive, so I've found as many outside links as I could. Many of these fics were also posted at the cellblock5 Yahoo group. Membership is required in order to access the fics. I've included the message numbers for these fics. Unless otherwise noted, the message numbers are for the cellblock5 Yahoo group. Many fics that were originally posted at the pairings page as WIPs may actually be posted in their entirety at cellblock5.

1. Every story listed on the pairings site is accounted for, whether it has a working link or not. I tried to keep this page as true to the pairings page as I could, meaning I listed the fics by pairings. Many of the fics may be listed more than once. In other words, a B/K fic would be listed under Beecher and also under Keller.

2. **DEAD LINKS** means just that -- the link(s) at the pairings page are dead. **DEAD LINKS** plus message numbers means the pairings page link(s) are dead but it's posted at cellblock5.

2. I didn't include warnings, canon/AU or anything like that. Click at your own risk.

3. As always, if I goofed up a link or you've found an outside link that I don't have or you've found it posted at one of the Yahoo groups, please leave a comment and let me know so I can make the appropriate changes!

4. Be sure to check out my other Oz Yahoo groups fics and message numbers list for fics listed at TS and TSXF.

5. Click

Sometimes when clicking on a Pairings link, you'll get this message:

"We're sorry. Your request failed to connect to our servers. We may be experiencing technical difficulties and suggest that you try again later."

Place your cursor at the end of the URL and click enter. You may need to do this more than once, but it seems to bring the page up.

So. If you clicky on a linky and it comes up dead, try viewing it in Firefox. For some reason links that were previously dead (in Internet Explorer) are popping up all over with Firefox.

Oz Yahoo groups -- fics and message numbers

I couldn't have done this without Sandra Esparza, who is no longer active in the Oz fandom. A few years ago she sent me a spreadsheet she made to keep track of fics and their message numbers. I've tried to keep it updated, but as always, if I'm missing anything or goofed anything up, let me know and I'll make the changes.

1. Chapter numbers mean it's either a WIP (abandoned or otherwise) or the author didn't post the entire thing in the Yahoo group list. I tried to include notes of explanation if chapters are missing. I have not posted pairings, warnings, canon/AU or anything like that.

2. You must be a member of these Yahoo groups (TSXF, TS, OzFic) in order to access the fics.

3. For C5 text file links, click here. For more Oz website links, including fiction websites, click here.

4. If you find any goofs, leave a comment and I'll make the necessary changes.

UPDATE: The Oz Lyric Wheel Yahoo group is no more as of September 2007. Most of the fics that were posted there were also posted at TS, TSXF or OzFic, or were posted at outside websites. I'm leaving the OZLW fic list up with links to the outside websites or notes stating that they were also posted at the other Yahoo groups.

UPDATE 2: October 2007: Okay, it appears nobody is answering the phones over at OzFic and new members aren't being accepted anymore. If you're already a member of OzFic, this update only sort of affects you.

If you've tried to apply for membership at OzFic and have had your request ignored, this update really pertains to you.

I did for the OzFics what I did for the Oz Lyric Wheel fics. I've also listed message numbers for fics that were only cross-posted to the cellblock5 Yahoo group. Membership is required, and as far as I know they are still accepting new members. I have no plans to do a fics/message numbers list for cellblock5. If anybody can find an outside link for any of the remaining fics that have none, please leave a comment here with the fic name and link and I'll make the necessary changes. Thanks!

C5 fics here. Yes, you read that right. C5 FICS ARE RIGHT HERE.

1. These are only C5 fics.

2. Fics are separated by authors. Capped fics at the end of each author's list means I couldn't find a link to the C5 site that worked. These fics may be found elsewhere on the inter-tubes, but my goal here was to find links only to C5. For example, the C5 link for Dori's "23 Leroy Street" didn't work, but that fic can obviously be found elsewhere, like on Dori's personal fic website. Oz website links can be found here.

3. Every story listed on C5 is accounted for, whether it has a working link or not.

4. I didn't include pairings, warnings, canon/AU or anything like that. Click at your own risk.

5. This is not personal at all, but I frickin' hate Lady Armand with the white-hot intensity of 120 burning suns. Love the fics and the poetry, hate-hate-hated linking the fics and the poetry!

6. Be sure to check out my Oz Yahoo groups fics and message numbers list. Many fics that were originally posted at C5 as WIPs may actually be posted in their entirety at one of the Yahoo groups.

7. Let me know if I goofed up a link. My brain is oatmeal.

UPDATE: Okay, the thought of all those capped stories (the ones at the end of each author's list with no links) kept me awake last night. So I went ahead and found as many message numbers as I could at TS, TSXF, and OzFic. You must be a member of these Yahoo groups in order to access them. They're color-coded and everything. In a few cases I just went ahead and provided links directly to outside pages, like Dori's fic page and Rebecca's "Hi, Society" LJ page. If anybody has links to fics that still have none, feel free to send them to me at my user name at yahoo dot com and I will gladly update them. Also let me know if I goofed anything up. Thanks to [profile] luci_2, [personal profile] cmk418 and myfrivolity for helping round up some stray links!

UPDATE 2: The color-coding may not come through if you're using Firefox, so I'll add tags to each one specifically stating the proper Yahoo group.

Yeah, I'm anal. What of it?

UPDATE 3: OCTOBER 2007 I just realized I'm a giant douche and I neglected to thank twylise over at TS for sharing the secret on how to find these fics in the first place. So thank you so much, twylise!
