I am well aware that the various formats create files of different sizes. That was why I converted all (!!!) the various files to plain txt, before comparison, no matter the original format (word, html, pdf, ...) The listing is as accurate and impartial as I could do.
I am well aware that there might be stuff out there that could even be larger, but I wanted to give credit to the furry writers who are currently publishing their stuff for the rest of the fandom. That was the original purpose of this whole ranking.

Ive been trying to do bits of stories for years, theres a couple of stubs on my web site, theres several stubs on floppy, that Im trying to save, the different stories set in different universes, offered for WaterWings, TANJ, Tabitha, Sabrina.. and a couple even I finally managed to set in my own Universe,... well, the storyline that is. 8}
Congratulations Hikaru, hope things continue at least as good. 8}
Hmm.. My 4 favourite stories all listed together.. Sabrina, ZZ, IC an TANJ 8}
Well, Tabitha is a favourite too, but will take Chriss a while to get it to the size needed to be listed? 8}
Im trying to find one story, I litteraly wrote down, on paper.. so far its 36 pages long?.. normal A4 lined, and I only got as far as landing.. effectively the introduction.. but I dont know where its gone 8(
(60k raw text?)
As for PDF.. Hmm.. I think Ill let my consideration of its desireability be saved till Im standing in the middle of White Sands Test Range. With Bill Gates.

Mad story writers rule! 
I updated the list once again, but there have been no changes for IC.
