buffyversetop5's 2013 session is now closed. Thank you to everyone who shared lists, chimed in, or created new work in the Buffyverse last year.

Top 5 will re-open at midnight GMT on October 30 for Classic Recs. As this is our "all time periods" session, if anyone had a list they didn't get to post, hang on to it! We'll be looking forward to seeing it then :)
