Ok ... maybe it's because I'm old-fashioned and a hopeless romantic ... but I hate stories which undermine the privileges of a relationship, like this one. I'm sorry, but a snogging competition? So people might think I'm too morally orientated, but why would you do something like that?

I read all 5 chapters, but it's made me so angry ... and completely out of character. From what we know, anyway. Whoever the author is seems to have made a complete joke of it all - the snogging, James and Lily's relationship, etc.

My opinion, therefore: icky. In simple terms.

Thank you! I keep reading the reviews and I'm like really? You think this is a good story? How about the bit with Snape?

I know you what you mean! I was reading the reviews, too, and thinking "Er ... what exactly is getting these people hooked to this story?"

OMG, the bit with Snape ... I have to admit. I retched. I really did. Come on, Lily willingly kissing Snape?!?! Stretching the imagination a bit, don't you think? *cringes*

And you know what the funny thing is? Right the way through the story, the author keeps saying how it's not "moral" for Lily and all ... why the hell is she doing it, then? *fumes*

Sorry, this has really pissed me off. XD

You are old-fashioned and a hopeless romantic... completely hopeless without spunk.

You know what I hate? The typical cliche of love/hate! If you want to address that kind of story you at least have to have some kind of interesting facts (at the least a plot), heck, maybe even a conspiracy for the undenominational unrealistic love of fictional beings coming from books of people who died long ago!

I read the first chapter, then gave up.

Lily snogging 50 different boys?

*snerk* Come ON!

I can see the potential for a comedy (please tell me it's not supposed to be drama/angst because I'll gouge my eyes out) but I can't see Lily agreeing to something like this. Hell, I can't see *James* agreeing to something like this! "I'd snog 50 girls just to get to you"?? *shakes head in disbelief*

See ya,
Anna.

You really need to keep reading. It just keeps getting worse. The first time she actually kisses someone he calls her a whore. Wouldn't that make you want to read more? It is so bad, I just can't stop myself from reading every chapter that comes up. Then I just get mad at myself. I need help.

Dear god. I'd seen that story floating around, but people actually like it? Ack! *runs for the knitting needles*

50 is such an absurd number considering there are what, 40 people in each year? Something like that. And the entire premise is... >.< I have no adjective. I have an emoticon. That's how bad it is.

I wish I could spork her. But really I just want to kill the author. I still can't get over the fact that she called Lily a whore but everyone else is just fine for kissing a bunch of random people. I part that really got me was that Remus and Peter only had to do 25 each. I really just don't understand why they need to kiss people to get Lily to date James.

That's even more hypocritical than my characters! And they're pretty screwy. But come on, that's the author! Argh. I also hate that the OCs will no doubt hook up with Remus and Sirius. ::headdesk:: What a stupid plot device.

why are your characters Hypocritical? The whole story is horrible. There are just not words.

I don't think I can even manage to read after the snogging game rules...I mean....WHAT? What sane and un-slutty (I know; it's not a word, but it's late and I fail to come up with a better one...) person plays this sort of game...ever??? In the words of Ron Weasley: MENTAL.

It really is so bad and people seem to love it. I just can't stop myself from reading it though.

I've seen this before. It's so...bad. Yet I felt compelled to keep reading.

It's completely OOC. And why on earth would James call Lily a slut when he was the one who came up with this..game? contest? in the first place? Absurd concept for a story.
