I did actually dig around some of the stories that were updated yesterday with this method, and two of them actually maxed out their google docs, forcing it into view only mode, so I don't think any are missing out on viewers.
Just a reminder: New fics, and final update (complete) Fics will not be found here. It's also not the entire update queue.
Anyway, you can find all them all after the break. As always please comment on their respective story posts, and not here.
This is actually the savage worlds campaign transcript for those following that.

Aww man, these updates are confusing for my inferior mind!
If you are going to be doing it like this from now on, it will be good to know, especially for those of us who are working on several fanfics to be posted on here.
Can we have the titles at the top instead of the bottom?
Or both?
@wackyteen Agreed, that's why its so confusing for me, title at top and bottom of it would be good.
Glad to see we're finally doing it this way: keeps the homepage cleaner. I hope this is a regular thing. I'm also glad to see the community using spreadsheets.
IBM's working on some really interesting spreadsheet-like query engines BTW. If I find more info, I'll make sure to pass it around.
Also, did anyone see the Google search volume spike on the KYM page? it's crazy!
Still kind of ambivalent about doing it like this, but if it is necessity than I suppose I'm alright with it for the time being.
Of all the times for Heart of Gold to update, though. *sigh*
Automating most of the blog posts would save Sethisto a bucketload of time, and this post format in particular looks like something that could be automated easily... I wish I knew HTML.
This is how you should've done it from the start! Just pile them up in one nightly roundup or something! As cool as the fanfics are, there's just too much individual fanfic blog updates.
Also, automated blog posts is awesome.
@Mike
Learn Dreamweaver, hardcoding is old school and takes a lot of time.
*has some experience in Web Design*
I don't mind individual blog posts, but they should be collapsable or smaller.
Or we can all just use Non-Fanfiction mode.
@wackyteen
Thanks so much, I'll look into it!
...to be honest, I'm so oldschool I learned C, and I've been trying to learn assembly language XD. I'm having trouble finding books for that which haven't already turned to dust...
Always start w/ the basics, amirite? I'm even using a ViM editor with UNIX... I'll get to the recent stuff like Java and Python some other year.
Yay Article II update AND Clockmaker!
+1000 Ponies :)
BTW, Rarity's cutie mark is definately 3 anatase crystals:

Ugh, seriously? Seven fics to read now, plus one someone linked to me earlier, plus two non-MLP ones...
Yeesh.
@DeRockProject
And what if you are following several of the stories in the update? Suddenly, you can have 12 stories dumped on you at once to sort through.
@TenchiFreak5 I know right? I was going to do voice-overs...apparently not.
Where the hell is Through The Eyes of Another Pony? That's like the only awesome fic here!
New ARTICLE 2, new Dresden Fillies, FUCK YEAH.
Once GanonFLCL drops a new CRISIS: Equestria, I can die happy. Well, not really. You know.
@Unknown
That was in the first part of the story update.
SO MUCH HAPPY IN ONE POST
@Unknown
That was updated yesterday.
Dang it. Still no update for Duties. Why won't it update.
Not a fan of this system. It kind of buries the writers away. Plus it makes it more difficult to tell whether something you read has updated.
Just wondering, is this a list of Fanfics in progress? If so, cool idea, but you should really be sure to include all of them in one post. For instance, I'm planning on having Part Four of mine come out sometime this week, so I'd think it'd be on here, as well as all the other fanfics that are currently in progress. Or is that way too many? Perhaps I just don't understand what this post is about.
Article 2 updated! *cues heavenly chorus*
Article 2 is boss as -Yay!- and apparently the author is actually in the armed forces or something
If this is how your gonna be doing the updates now is their anyway it could be modified to indicate what each stories star rating is? I actually do take that into account when I'm trying to decide on a new FanFic to read.
You even going to throw Fallout: Equestria in here with the rest?
This will be interesting.
Whatever happened to the Mort takes a Holiday....anyone know? Is it dead? (Oh the sweet irony)
I still think there should be separate posts. How am I supposed to look at the ratings when they're all crammed together like this? For those who don't like seeing a ton of fanfic, there's already no-fanfic mode. We don't need this combined thingy on top of that.
For everyone who apparently didn't read the top of Queue Dump pt 1, this format is only for current in-progress stories (nothing new, nothing finished), and Seth's only doing it this way because of a spike in high-quality submissions, so he's getting as many new stories as he normally gets updates. He's goimg to switch back to the old way as soon as it's feasible to do so.For everyone who apparently didn't read the top of Queue Dump pt 1, this format is only for current in-progress stories (nothing new, nothing finished), and Seth's only doing it this way because of a spike in high-quality submissions, so he's getting as many new stories as he normally gets updates.
