2016 Yuletide Nominations Confirmation Post

[jaclynhyde]

Nominations are open and this is the optional nominations confirmation post, brought to you by desert_vixen and jaclynhyde. Apologies for the delayed posting! Note: the nominations coordination post does not have a spreadsheet this year, but feel free to use the post as usual.

 

 1. This is the confirmation post for nominations.  Please post only after you have submitted your nominations on AO3. This DOES NOT count as your nomination. The LiveJournal confirmation post is here; if you comment in both posts, please note that you're cross-posting.

 

2. The Google Spreadsheet is here. 

 

3. This post is intended to help people coordinate to get the most out of nominations - keep in mind that if you absolutely MUST have a fandom/character in Yuletide, or it's ruined, you should nominate it yourself.

 

4. Please remember that the volunteers running this post are NOT Yuletide mods, so no authority or ability to fix issues. 

 

5. If you change a nomination or add to a nomination, make a NEW comment.  DO NOT edit your previous comment or reply to it.  If you don't make a new comment, it's possible your change will be missed.

 

6. There is a format below to help keep the comments organized - please use it! Copying and pasting your tags from AO3 is the best choice.

Yes, Madam Secretary! I saw your nomination in the spreadsheet and switched mine to add other characters (I've added Nadine Tolliver, Blake Moran, Mike Barnow, and Ellen Hill).

I'm definitely going to nominate this show, though, so if you change your mind let me know so I can alter my nominations accordingly!

I posted my nominations on livejournal here.

It's such a great show, it deserves more fic! I didn't change anything, so hopefully someone will want to do something with the characters. :~)

You should've seen my reaction when I noticed someone had nominated Isfolket. :D It's such a rare fandom that no one seems to know. I really liked your choices, especially Yrja, and I nominated four more myself. I so wish I could've added a dozen. At least.

Then I realized that omg, you're the other one who commented on my Dominic/Niklas on AO3, and I don't think I ever thanked you or replied to you in any way. Or did I? I'm so sorry if I didn't! I remember being so excited to see the comment. So thank you, even when it was forever ago. (And to answer your question, I no longer remember what Irmelin had to show. I only remember it was a girl thing.)

I always nominate Isfolket and hope someone else will as well. :~D And Yrja is my favourite I think (except for Tengel and Silje), that book was the first one I read.

I don't know if you did, I'd forgotten about that until you mentioned it. I should go re-read all the Isfolket fic, really. Hopefully we'll end up with more fic after this year!
