I note that on question 8, you have “Auguste Dupin” listed separately from “C. Auguste Dupin”. It wouldn’t make a difference to my ranking, but I believe that consolidating those would edge **Claptree** above **Little Nemo**. ---

Wow, _last_ place. I don’t think I’ll ever make first, so I guess I might as well celebrate 🙂 ---

> [@Springtime\_for\_Spacers](#): > > Woo woo fourth, best place so far. I’m honored to be tied with you. And as to question 9: as I said upthread, June Thomson writes excellent Holmes pastiches, just as good as Meyer and in some cases even better than Conan Doyle’s originals. ---

Second third place finish in a row. I know I should be happy, but I’m kicking myself over putting Neil Gaiman instead of Nicholas Meyer. ---

Up where I belong. I am in a yoyo syndrome. I go from ten to 45 and back. Just when I thing I am free from the bottom, they pull me back in. ---

I had a pass at no. 9. if I looked it up I might have won. The feuds would have never recovered . [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-daily-feud-sherlock-holmes-by-winterhawk11-game-over/487701.md?page=3)
