(Admin) Tumblr, polling updates -- all the news, really!

First thing's first. Like people from the 21st century, we now have a tumblr. You can find us here. Very soon, I will figure out how it works! Or angelgazing will mock me and take care of it. One of the two

Not that I am committing to a damn thing these days because the busy, I has it, so I am not voting anyway, but: your survey link is missing a B at the end of the URL so it's just going to the surveymonkey homepage.

Probably other people could figure this out the same way I did, by looking at the previous post, but, you know, in case you'd like to fix it. :)

Damn it! And I was so proud of getting all the HTML right first time. Fixed now. Thanks for the heads-up.

Not that I'm even sure I can participate this time, but Welcome to Nightvale is not listed. Is it not qualifying? Not enough interest? I'm just surprised not to see it.

[lady_ganesh]

I don't qualify (not even one fic posted...I have a draft that I hate, does that count?) so I haven't asked for it.

[jelazakazone]

I don't qualify under WtNV, but I do for other fandoms :D Still not sure if I can participate this year. My head is in a VERY weird space.

[lady_ganesh]

I've had those years.

Right now I'm just pulling for Saiyuki to get back in because OH YES DO I QUALIFY IN SAIYUKI.

I wanted to say thanks for all the clarifications, O Modly Sorts, I'm sure you've been run ragged trying to pull this all together. I'm excited to participate!

Question - it's been a while and I don't remember, but is there a "dear Remixer" letter thingie?

[laurificus]

Last year we set up a post for them, so they weren't individually posted to the comm. we'll probably do that again this year for the same reason, but in general, we don't particularly encourage them.

Remix is a challenge, not a gift exchange, you know? Letters making it clear how to find stories (if they're located in more than one place) are excellent, as are ones from people who want to allow their remixers to go beyond the set rules -- changing pairings, etc. But it's not a Yuletide situation where participants are writing with the aim of making each other happy. (Not that I think remix participants are trying to make each other unhappy! But the aim is to write the story the way you want to, and sometimes that means doing something your remixee wouldn't choose to do.)

Thanks!

I feel like this was a lesson on the dangers of trying to do two things at once! It should only have been included on the list of fandoms we weren't sure of. it's definitely in now, though.
