Found this on the Ranma list.  It really belongs here.  ^_-

Subject: Opinions on Authors who use Ranma.

Let's face it.  I know I read them.  I have to.  There's no Ranma in my 
stocking this year.

 "Predator and Prey" 
 Benares

	The cast of Ranma vs. the Predator.  Lots of violence and 
combat.  Shocking when Kasumi has three little lights aimed at her chest...

 "Lemonade" [LEMON] by John Walter Biles

	It's a Biles Story!  A parody on stories that have lemon, alien 
invasions, and authors who put them selves in their own stories.  Can you 
say "megalomania?"  I thought Biles had gone nuts when I saw this.  I 
realised, too late, that Biles is NUTS!  For mature audiences, please.

Biles does very good work with Ranma 1/2.  I'd say if Rumiko started 
killing off fanfic authors, she might let this one live.
Stefan "Twoflower" Gagne might also survive.  A lot of his stories are 
really long.  Make sure you have lots of time...

For those Ryoga lovers...

 "GuyverRyouga: Worlds in Collison" >  "Ryouga: Crossover" 
 "Ryouga: The Shampoo Variation" all by Mike Latus

Read "Shampoo," "Crossover," and "GuyverRyouga" to keep them in order.

For Ryoga haters... I have to suggest "Ranma 1/2: Lies."  Very dark, very 
disturbing.  I felt uneasy after this one...

Back to the lighter side...
"The More Things Change" By Rodney Malapitan
	I actually voted for this one.  It studies the "Nerima Effect"(I 
call it that) that says that it wants a guy to be the focus of all 
this chaos.  If Ranma and Akane become serious in their relationship, someone 
else will be needed to take Ranma's place... Come here, Ryoga!  

Allegra: Tsubasa gets mechanical in this one!

 "Communication Breakdown" by Cris "AlberCrombie" Snyder

	Very nice!  Another one voted for.  Shows how stupid the Kunos' are.
The name is strangely familiar, though...
