Drinking n' Fighting is a The Magnificent Seven mailing list.

A related mailing list is Purgatory.

Introduction

Drinking N Fighting is a list for fiction and discussion of the slash pairing of Chris Larabee and Buck Wilmington, and for discussion of the The Magnificent Seven TV series and its characters. Adult and non-adult discussion welcome. Posting C/B or C-B fic encouraged; posting of links welcome. Links to all non-C/B or C-B fic strongly encouraged (authors, be generous and share your work!) The main pairing focus of this list is the Chris/Buck relationship, but feel free to talk about any topic relating to the Magnificent 7 series; your mods are adept at gentle nudges if topics stray too far afield. By subscribing to this list, you are stating that you are legally of age to read it.

History

The mailing list was created Nov 19, 2002 by Elanor Graves as a present to Charlotte C Hill.[1]

Soon afterward, Elanor created Drinking n' Fighting, an archive for the mailing list. It was exclusively a slash archive, until it was converted to eFiction September 2003.[2] At the time, the archive was expanded to include Chris & Buck Gen stories.

Change in Leadership

Elanor gave up ownership of the mailing list to Diamondback August 21, 2003,[3] who was the owner briefly, before Charlotte Hill took ownership Oct 19, 2003.[4]

Elanor stayed on as the archivist until 2007 when she handed over the archive to Ashlyn and Limlaith.
