[Pharass]

Pride and Prejudice has also already been nominated, by Cartoon X.
Anyway, Avaitor, I'll add the rest of your nominations to the list.

[Rynnec]

With Rynnec's nominations, there are now 145 novels in the tournament and I think that's good enough. Nominations are now closed, the tournament proper will begin shortly.
Be seeing you.
