I think nixing "Reserved" type posts is a good idea, for 2 reasons:

1) Subscribed users don't get notices when the new parts are up
2) If a writer finishes their TR, there is a glut of pictures on one page and it can make them difficult to load. In addition, the following comments don't make sense sometimes if they came after part 4 was put up but before part 5. I'd rather read the TR and comments in a natural order.
