                   The FFML Synopses List
                   ======================
For the week of: January 3 - 9
Moderator on Duty: Key
Synopses Submitted: 14

This is the text version of the FFML Synopses List.  If any of
the fics in this list seem interesting, you are suggested to
either use the FFML Archive Number, if provided, to retrieve the
fic from the FFML Archive, or to email the author.  As stated
quite emphatically in the FFML FAQ, _DO NOT SEND REQUESTS TO THE
FFML_.  Although, personally we won't do anything, chances are,
you might get verbally abused by a few... (j/k, most people on
the list are quite tolerant and do not bite...  Just don't post
20 requests in a row...)

This list is sorted by series, and within each series, ordered 
alphabetically, according to last names.  The synopses here 
represent whatever has been sent to us, from Saturday to Friday.

Summary:

In the tradition of "Scream", a story which takes on the cliches of a

The misadventures with a blue-haired girl, a taskmistress, several
perverts and flunkies, the shy Class Representative, and the
body/age-variable principal only serve as backdrop to a crisis of duty. 
Bob season, folks!

And thus ends this week's fanfiction summaries.  Note, if any
errors have occurred in this compilation, such as:
a) Your submitted summary has not been included!
b) Any other weird quirk.

Do not hesitate to email us.  Chances are, the PERL scripts, which
we may be using, are quite buggy and need a good rewrite or two.
The quicker these bugs get killed, the sooner the list becomes
better.
