I recently read the larger anthology (it was all 7 parts) and I didn't like it very well either. I gave it a 3 but that might have been generous. It made me not anxious to try any more by the author, too.

You don't have to post each roll, some people just choose to. It is up to you how you do it. I just update too. =)
