just read through your story, and i was surprised to see that not only did it have a good premise, but was pleasantly surprised to see it was well written. my problem with the fic though is that harry doesn't know the weasley's or hermione. it creates plot holes which have bothered me (like hermione's aid in rescuing sirius). also, i think it would have been funnier if it was a post hogwarts canon story. i think it would have been hilarious for ginny to find out that hemione signed her up for the bachelor with the man in question being the-boy-she-finally-got-over. it also would have made very good interaction between the women when they saw that ginny was already his friend. just my opinion, but i think the story would have been better as such. give it some thought...(maybe a rewrite isn't out of the question ^_^)

Author's Response: I don't mean to be rude when I say this, but this question has been asked a million times and answered almost as many but... THIS IS AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE STORY!! You have to take it with a grain of salt because it's not going to be canon. That's why it's AU. If I wanted it to be canon, it would have been canon, but I thought that having Harry and Ginny be total strangers would give me more room to navigate and end up making the story better. I appreciate your opinion that the story would have been better post canon, but I disagree, and since I am the author of this story, what I want to happen is going to happen. Sorry. I am a little offended that "the story would have been better" your way, simply because it would have made more sense to you. That hurt. I am not going to rewrite this story simply because one of my reviewers thinks I didn't write it the way s/he wanted me to write it. I'm having a hard enough time finishing this story, there is no way I'm going to completely rewrite it. Most of the funniest parts would have to be cut out and I'm not going to sacrifice those for your sake. Plus, I've read a story that did as you said I should and I personally thought that it sucked because it was too obvious what was going to happen. I prefer to make my readers wonder what's going to happen next. I'm sorry if this sounds like I'm attacking you. I'm not. This review was just the last straw after several reviews of this sort (not only on this site) and I figure that since no one ever reads my responses anyway... Jaa.

Hey! Thanks for the update! :) It's been a while, but when the inspiration takes an extended vacation...hey, what can you do? Great chapter! I gotta say, I never saw the whole Neville thing coming. I sure hope she chooses Harry and tells Neville to get on down the highway. Keep up the great work, and may the muse of inspiration stick around! ;)

Eek! Me thinks that Connie is going to get her ass kicked for playing this trick on Ginny. I do have a feeling that the 'Hermione signed Ginny's name' is going to come into play and somehow disqualify Ginny. But since I am a schmuck for love, Harry and Ginny will overcome. I am glad you are feeling better and I hope that everthing else is going well. Angie

It just occurred to me - does trista know it's the Sirius Black too? Because I think that's asking trouble. Trista and Ginny could have been anybody...

Author's Response: Yes, Trista knew. And if it had been someone else, do you really think that Dumbledore wouldn't have had a special spell planned for just such an event? Remember the Philosopher's Stone? "Only one who wanted to find the stone, find it but not use it, would get it," or something like that. So, "only one who knew but would not reveal the secret would remember when they left the house." hehehe

that's my boy! of course he was going to choose ginny! everybody, even connie, can tell... see, she's prepared neville for a twist. this is the thing on the phone,right? oh, and will the next update be quicker?

u sure rock!!! i've been anticipating this story update from the start - great job!!! i've been wondering when will neville show up in the story... my other idea was to make trista backstab ginny by blabbing how she entered the contest illegally thru hermione- oh well, - neville entering the story is better!!! hope u update sooner okay!!!

Author's Response: Despite what everyone seems to think, Trista really is a nice person. Besides, it would have been too cliche if Trista ended up stabbing Ginny in the back, don't you think? Don't you prefer being surprised?

Hullo its me AGAIN. I know you probaly dread my sappy reviews but I love your writing. I mean, if the story had different chaacters and had nothing to do with Harry Potter I would still love. You write brilliantly and this story is amazing. It follows the same line as a normal dating show would, favor the nice one, create lots of drama and in the end bring in an old lover or something like that, but anyway I sorta expected Neville to come if Gin won. I would have gone nutters if you had made Trista win. Which is stupid because this is just a story. But yes it was fantastic! I hope you leave Trist and Ginny as friends! Well great story, I'm sorry for having another boringly long review! Ta!
