Reviews of the novel on [http://www.amazon.com Amazon.com] reveal many of the inherent pitfalls as well as the attractions of attempting such a story. Conflicts between various writers over the story's direction and anger over the loss of favorite characters are major problems to be faced in the writing.
The most successful ''Daria'' round robin (in the sense that it was the only one to actually be completed) was "[[Evil Daria Vignettes]]," on [[PPMB]]. It ran from September 2007 to January 2008. "[[Fandemonium]]," though incomplete, is often referenced in other ''Daria'' fanfics as a TV series with which many of [[Lawndale]]'s teens are infatuated. "Fandemonium" features various fanfiction writers in an over-the-top [[melodrama]] with [[science-fiction]] elements. "[[Daria's Popular]]" is perhaps the oldest round robin, begun in July 2005.
