So, in the interest of fair representation, [livejournal.com profile] leadensky and I have decided to see what the most popular fandoms would be and offer those up first, with the rest (and any other options) offered as the wildcards. But first, we need to see what any and all participants would like to write.

So, choose your top 10!! and pimp so we can get a fair sampling. (Grrr. Stupid poll!)

ETA: If you see fandoms in the write in answers that you want to be part of your top ten, please either indicate that in the write in, or drop me a comment here so I can add them to the tally!

[Poll #708446]

dude, no matter what, I am probably going to write a crack fic with Paris and Rory (GG), Bones and Angela and Booth (Bones), Mulder and Scully (X-Files - and pretending that the guys didn't die, The Lone Gunmen) and possibly incorporate The West Wing, Stargate SG1 and whatever else I can figure into it.

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Two fandoms I have spent mein fannish exisTANCE looking for include "thirtysomething" (TV) and Love & Rockets (comics), both GREAT examples of female friendship. Also Strangers in Paradise (comics). Can we add those three? 'Cause MAN if someone out there wrote me Ellyn/Melissa or Melissa/Susannah friendship, or even Melissa/HOPE or Susannah/HOPE -- or Maggie/Hopey or Hopey/Izzy or Maggie/Danita or Hopey/Izzy/Daffy/Kiki -- or Kachoo/anyone! -- I'm just saying I might up and melt in pieces.

I will also pimp the hell out of this ficathon once it goes. Thea how I love thee! Also HG!

If you can, pimp this poll a bit, too - so we can get people's brains doing the thinky, and so we get more input.

Pretty please?

(Also - THANK YOU!)

Midrash? Me, I assume? My rabbi used midrashic (?!) interpretations, I went to a pretty progressive synagogue that used a midrash interpretation of the Torah...pourquoi?

Actually, I was talking to Thea, but hey, I'll talk to you, too.

What I meant was biblefic. I was wondering if people would have an issue with it being one of the wildcards.

(Maybe we could throw myth-in-general in as well.)

I think myth, biblefic, and fairytales should all be thrown in as wildcards.

On the other hand, I don't actually KNOW any girls girls girls of any testament. Which is to say, I wouldn't necessarily trust my Sarah or Rebekah characterization...on the other hand, I heard Ruth was really fabulous. *g*

You know, I'd really love someone to write Earl's ex, Joy. Maybe a crossover with Vala? ;) Or AbFab, tho I don't think I've ever been stoned enough to write Patsy and Eddy.

Hee - scrubs, it sounds like you've got your wild cards ready!!

and dude, Ab Fab should so, so be on that list! (Not because I've been that stoned, noooooo. Nope.)

Ummmm.....

I can say the idea of female buddy fic, of which there isn't nearly enough (is there any?) really caught my imagination. So.

Maaaaaaybe... eek!

Oh, you must include Gilmore Girls! It's so girlheavy and wonderful friendship-wise.

I've got a plot bunny with Kara Thrace/Laura Roslin in Battlestar Galactica. I'm not exactly sure how ficathons work, but I'll probably be writing that one regardless, even if I end up writing two stories. :)

For a ficathon, you sign up for what you can write and want to write and what you'd like to receive. So you may get your fandom, but not necessarily your pairing. My best advice - if you've got a great Starbuck/Roslin storing brewing, I'd write it in case that's not the exact request or request variation.

Date: 2006-04-12 04:33 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lomer.livejournal.com
Sounds cool. Never gone a ficathon before. *g* I was planning on writing the Starbuck/Laura fic anyway, and probably writing a completely different story for the ficathon anyway.

Obviously I'm poll-blind, apologies for writing in Lost when it was already an option.

Your comment-box was way too small, so I'm just going to ramble here. *g*

I mentioned DC Comics, and... yeah. You'd have to split it into various branches, because there's no way I could write, say, the Batclan. (I would dearly, dearly love some Justice League International (or related titles) fic for this ficathon, but I'd have to go recruiting in order to find someone who could write it. *g*)

Also, I second the call for Six Feet Under. And there are probably other fandoms, but they escape me right now. I'll try to think of them tomorrow.

There are probably a few other fandoms on this list I could write if you were really desperate, like XF and BtVS. Given that I stopped watching these shows before they finished, however, it'd have to be an absolute last resort.

I love the idea and I think I forgot to say this, Felicity should totally be added. If not for Felicity/Elena or Felicity/Julie then definitely for Felicity/Meghan one of my favourite female friendships on TV of all times!

Same goes for Clueless (the TV-Show) with Cher/Dionne.

I ran out of room in the box. Tiny fandoms I would be willing to write in are: The Fast and the Furious, Las Vegas, Star Wars (New Jedi Order), Over There, Corner Gas. And one I wouldn't write but seems like a shoo in is Xena: Warrior Princess.

Hey - do think this has been long enough? Can we (you?) make a call on numbers, and start sign-ups? Or do we need to talk/poll about challenge vs fic exchange?

I think it's been plenty long enough. Let's set up the official ficathon and start pimping for sign-ups!
