The Story So Far: Looks Pretty Good!

[zvi]

Eighteen people have registered. Fandoms offered include: popslash, Chuck, Torchwood, Criminal Minds, DC & Marvel Comics, Glee, Numbers, NCIS, and NCIS Los Angeles.

Unfortunately, two people filled out their requests and what they would write quite neatly, but did not enter name, e-mail address, or other identifying information. One of you requested Heroes, Heroes RPF, Almost Famous, and Star Trek XI RPF. The other person requested Sharpe, Mary Stewart's Arthurian Cycle, Young Wizards, and Star Trek (New Movie.)

I have sent an e-mail to everyone who completely filled out the registration form and I will continue to do that, although I make no promises as to the speed of my turn around. If you believe you registered and you did not get an e-mail from me, please contact me ASAP.

Please, please, please post about this challenge on your journals. The only way to get matched on your more obscure fandom requests is if you recruit your friends who share those fandoms with you. Also, it can be a lot of fun to work on a Secret Santa project for someone you know ahead of time, instead of J. Random Stranger who requested the large fandom you put in as a safety.

I actually got someone to sign up by pimping in my fandom comms! I squeed!

I am glad to hear it, and look forward to the fic that comes out of it!

Ooh! You have someone requesting Young Wizards. Awesome. Is there any way to find out what the smaller fandoms requested so far are? (That is to say, anywhere that's up that I'm not finding...) I tend to prefer smaller fandoms, but I seem to remember a post you wrote about not stuffing random tiny fandoms in the sign-up list without knowing someone is actually requesting them.

There's no public database or anything like that, and I am not as cool as yuletide to keep an automated public list. I just periodically make an announcement post, and I try to point out the rare or unexpected fandoms people have requested or offered to write in.

Got it. I'll keep watching, then. :)

I just realised, I did reply to your email, do I need to re-fill the form? I can do that, but I wasn't sure. I fail.

No, don't bother. I've got it under control.
