Wrong or right, I will have the complete list up Thursday night.

My baby park just hatched it's 100th type of dragon. Today I have 5 gems to go to the first person who can tell me which dragon it is. 1 guess per post, but once I have replied to say right or wrong, you are welcome to guess again.
Tomorrow I will have a hint and 4 gems to go to the first person who correctly tells me which type it is. The next day I will have another hint and 3 gems, etc.
Fletch_smf2 is the GCID if you would like to come by and have a look.
Over on Fletch_smf's name that dragon thread, technofanatic suggested Arthur C Clark as a name, being one of the big three in science fiction. I was not sure who the other two he meant were so I suggested a list, naming first names only. Anyway I thought it might make a good contest. So 5 gems to the person who can guess them all. Philip, Kurt, Brian, Robert, Isaac, Ben, Greg, Douglas, Edward, Edgar, Herbert, Jules, Fred, Frank, Ray, Ursula, Anne, Piers, James, John, Colin, John again, Philip again, James again, Mary, Connie, Orson, William, Andre, Larry, Robert again, Kim, Carolyn You must guess MY list. Repeated names can be in any order though. I will deposit my list with a neutral party in case of disputes.
I will of course ban wapatango from entering. Can't be seen giving her gems.
Philip Jose Farmer, Kurt Vonnegut Jr., Brian Aldiss, Robert Heinlein, Isaac Asimov, Ben Bova, Edward ?, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Herbert George Wells, Jules Vern, Fred Saberhagen, Frank Herbert, Ray Bradbury, Ursula K Leguine, Anne McCaffrey, Piers Anthony, James Edwin Gunn, John Wyndham, Colin?, John Scalzi or J.W. Campbell, Philip K Dick, James Blish, Mary Shelly, Connie Willis, Orson Scott Card, William Gibson, Andre Norton, Larry Niven, Robert Louis Stevenson or Siverberg), Kim Stanley Robinson, C. J. Cherryh
Pretty good. And bonus points for adding Jr. But still not all correct I will give it a couple more days before acknowledging correct entries and handing out brownie points. And hints.

Hmmm... Let me think... I say... Pollen!

Buffy, It is by no means an exhaustive list. You will also notice that George ( dying of the light , song for lya), Stephen ( the gap ) , Paolo (windup) and Brandon ( mistborn) are not there either
Some are perhaps better known for their fantasy. And one or two tread the line very finely.
I am shocked and amazed there is no David (Weber) on that list.

Honestly I had the same thought

As I said earlier, it is by no means an exhaustive list. Their could be a few David's, a jack or two, a Clifford, a few more johns, another Mary, fritz, Karel, Sam, Stan, Elizabeth etc. As I said over on the original post, the list goes on and on.

Might as well take another punt at this. Ummm... Chrome?

Your 100th dragon was your Spark dragon. It was the 2nd Dark dragon you bred, didn't have room in the Dark habitat so it has found a home in the Lightning habitat.
Fletch_smf, I would like to try to guess, but I don't have your second id in my friend's list. I'm trying to send a friend request but I think it's not working.

Some friends touch your heart in a way that you can never erase.
Over on Fletch_smf's name that dragon thread, technofanatic suggested Arthur C Clark as a name, being one of the big three in science fiction. I was not sure who the other two he meant were so I suggested a list, naming first names only. Anyway I thought it might make a good contest. So 5 gems to the person who can guess them all. Philip, Kurt, Brian, Robert, Isaac, Ben, Greg, Douglas, Edward, Edgar, Herbert, Jules, Fred, Frank, Ray, Ursula, Anne, Piers, James, John, Colin, John again, Philip again, James again, Mary, Connie, Orson, William, Andre, Larry, Robert again, Kim, Carolyn You must guess MY list. Repeated names can be in any order though. I will deposit my list with a neutral party in case of disputes.
I will of course ban wapatango from entering. Can't be seen giving her gems.
The big 3: Isacc Asimov, Arthur Clarke, and Robert Heinlein
Know a little, google a lot, and then realize I know nothing. GD, I am doing this for fun only. I am not entering the contest.
My list:
Philip Farmer Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. Brian Aldiss Robert Heinlein Isaac Asimov Ben Bova Greg Darcy or Greg Bear Douglas Adams Edward Lerner Edgar Allan Poe or Edgar Wallace Herbert Wells Jules Verne Fred Pohl Frank Kafka (Frankz) Ray Bradbury Ursula Kroeber Anne McCaffrey Piers Anthony James Gunn John Ayliff Colin Kaff John Scalzi Philip Dick James Kelly Mary Shelley Connie Willis Orson Card William Gibson Andre Norton Larry Niven Robert Sawyer Kim S. Robinson

J. Cherryh Greg
technofanatic has the most complete list so the above is based on that one. Note that I have not accepted either/or answers. A few but not all were half right. And Buffy ALMOST got one of the ones I thought would stump everyone. Google was probably right. Buffy you need your eyes checked. And it's Franz. Not Frank.
And NinjaKiwi. much as I enjoyed the never ending story ( my title not his) , I see the late lamented Robert Jordan as a fantasy writer. Not SF.
I'll send techno three gems As an encouragement award. The full five are still up for grabs. And it's a lot easier now.
A few clues to finish off. Greg Darcy is not a published author. Nor is he ever likely to be. Mary lies right on the edge of fantasy and SF. I personally put her in the latter camp. And she is adamant she belongs there One of the others was robbed of a Nobel prize. And one is only known for a handful of short stories.
