At least she had a good reason! I swear half the time these people are just putting themselves in danger out of shear boredom.

I hope you will resubmit it, reworded so that some of these comments are reflected and maybe some people who downvoted it wouldn't, with the more expansive wording. It clearly has a lot of support, considering how many people have commented here that they are sorry it didn't get in (including me!).

I voted for that one--it was one of my favourites. The others I voted for weren't mentioned in the post at the top, but some of the ones I downvoted were (won't say where or how many!)

Pearl | 527 comments Maybe I’m being too picky, but I think cozy mysteries and series are too tame for the survival topic. The listopia isn’t very useful to me at this point. I think it will be easier to fill with the standard lists.

I didn’t vote for it because I don’t know team names. I was confused by magic also, so maybe next time you could list the team names with the examples. I will vote for it next time.

I agree that it shouldn’t be a related to prompt.
