Hee hee. Every time I see a bad ByaRuki fic, I'm reminded of that soap opera "The Bold and the Beautiful," which retconned one character's paternity and the guy starts getting the hots for his not!sister, who was once believed to be his daughter! A daughter he help to deliver, no less.
Granted, Byakuya and Rukia didn't grow up as siblings, so that makes it a bit more easy to stomach--it's not my favorite couple, nor will I ever read anything above a pg-13 rating for it, but I still hate when fans squee about the pairing because "OMG She looks like Hisana, so they should be together!!111!!one" I mean...really? I even made a semi rant about that last year. (http://kari-izumi.livejournal.com/4093.html#cutid1)
I don't have a list set in stone. I have one pairing that I know for sure's gonna be on that list, but the problem I have is sitting down and dedicating time to promote the contest and look around to see which pairings are popular/really disliked. I work five days a week and I haven't had two days off in a row since before Christmas. I finally do have a two-day weekend coming up on Sunday, so I'll have to sit down then before the people I do have signed up lose interest. 8D
