Guardian stats meme
16 Mar 2020 18:27I've vacuumed and spanked my mats, and about to start writing fic. To get in the mood, a meme via
starandrea – Has Guardian significantly skewed the ratings you assign to your posted work? (Do you write more explicit fic for Guardian than other fandoms?)
All my AO3 works: 233
G: 74 (32%)
T: 104 (45%)
M: 13 (6%)
E: 40 (17%)
Not Rated: 2 (<1%)
Guardian excluded: 159
G: 51 (32%)
T: 70 (44%)
M: 10 (6%)
E: 26 (16%)
Not Rated: 2 (1%)
Guardian works: 74
G: 23 (31%)
T: 34 (46%)
M: 3 (4%)
E: 14 (19%)
...so, not really. A slight decrease in M-rated fic in favor of E-rated fic? The sum of G and T-rated fics is about 77% for all cases. Though one must note that I write Guardian fic other than Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan, too. For the ship, 29% is E-rated and only 31% T-rated, though I get similar stats if I exclude all the gen I've written. I think the actual effect might be that for Guardian, people are more likely to write ship, and shipfic is more likely to be E-rated than genfic, because E is basically the porn rating on AO3.
Now, off to do a final readthrough of For No Cradle Last Forever's epilogue and then write some more casefic!
