swissmargAll right, I'm really cleaning up now! Here's another one that I missed, but better late than never. Statistics from the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
rhr_love Valentine's Day challenge are under the cut.
Fest community:rhr_love
Fest type: Choose-a-prompt with claiming
Premise: Ron/Hermione
Ratings restrictions: All ratings allowed
Length restrictions: 1,000 words minimum, no maximum
Creation period: Up to 7 weeks, depending on when the claim was made
There were 19 submissions for the challenge:
Art - 3
Fic - 16
Art to fic ratio: 19%
By rating:
ART
PG-13 - 2
R - 1
FIC
G - 1
PG - 4
PG-13 - 3
R - 6
NC-17 - 2
Total words: 45,623 words
Mean (average fic length): 2,850 words
Median (half the fics shorter, half the fics longer): 2,800 words
Mode (most frequent fic length): 1-2K
The ratings were pretty evenly distributed, with 47% rated R or higher, and 53% rated PG-13 or lower. The bulk of the fics were in the PG to R range, with only 2 NC-17 fics. For a romance-based fest, that might be a bit low, but then I think that Ron/Hermione usually appeals more to the heart-string romantic than to the smut-lover. That could be a wildly inaccurate opinion, though. I'm just trying to explain the figures.
The word counts were pretty much run-of-the-mill, with the largest bunch in the lowest category. There were no fics that were much longer than the rest, and even the highest word count of 5,800 words was modest.

Some thoughts: With the creation period overlapping with the bigger and more general wizard_love fest, this specialized fest still managed to pull in a nice crowd.
