Pollute the Air

Did your favorite fandom get rejected because it was one fic over the limit?
Have you just fallen in love with a new fandom the day after nominations ended?
Or are you morbane?

Tell us all


Also:
In the last post the idea came up to create a community where you can post your most shameful yuletide requests anonymously. Check out [community profile] youwantwhat

Thanks for letting us know, acolourclear. *rolleyes*

I think I'm gonna feel bitter about them for a while.

I wish they'd keep the original post. It has most of the information.

+1

I am so much more inclined to treat the letters in the original post this year.

Going by the chat, this post was actually probably Morbane.

Seriously?

Chat immediately before this comment appeared (censoring names, to protect the innocent or whatever. HopefulNebula is the one who "officially" does the letter spreadsheet):
T* wishes letters were around so could see potential requests
<Morbane>: http://yuletide.livejournal.com/1203132.html
<Morbane>: as long as you have a means of dealing with the resultant panic...
<T*>: ehhh I'll be fine
<HopefulNebula>: if you're in EST or later, the *real* letters post is officially tomorrow!
HopefulNebula is not in EST or later, and has to wait.
<HopefulNebula>: ...orion is helping again.
<T*>: wait there's two?
T* misses everything
<HopefulNebula>: the one morbane linked was started by someone acting in bad faith, there's no evidence that letter is still going to be there in a week.
<HopefulNebula>: *that post is still...
<Morbane>: Acting in bad faith seems a little strong... they did update it. But it's by an account created on the same day.
<T*>: huh
<T*>: ohhh
<T*>: that makes sense
<T*>: not necessarily bad faith, but not reliable
<HopefulNebula>: considering how they acted on coal, i don't think bad faith is too strong.
<Morbane>: mm. For example, I think it still contains the information that you have to request at least 4 canons, although the correct number is 3 and people have asked them to update it
<B*>: What's going on?
<Morbane>: Most of what I saw on coal was someone panicking and things snowballing. Of course, I was catching up on coal after a weekend away.
<Morbane>: I mean, it definitely was a person from _coal who started the post.

So, probably Morbane, HopefulNebula or the person linked. Could have been a coincidence or just another chat lurker, though.

Wow, Hopefulnebula. Everyone on the ~official spreadsheeting team is such a gd peach. I'm so glad they're the totes reliable bunch in charge of things. Just such mature, non-grudgy folks all round.

DA

From other conversations on chat, I think HopefulNebula doesnt go to _coal, they have only had it reported to them. Idk, there might be some accidental bias there.
