Speeding Again? (G)

Jun 01, 2008 13:50

sg1friendathon fics are due tomorrow! It's been... interesting, so far, being a mod for a ficathon. Among other things, I am now in awe of the mods of ficathons in which I've participated in the past. :)

I'm sure there is some perfectly good explanation why half the people who signed up still haven't joined the comm yet, despite repeated and polite reminders. ( Read more... )

Poor Daniel and Yay for evil!speed freak Sam.

I'm sure there is some perfectly good explanation why half the people who signed up still haven't joined the comm yet, despite repeated and polite reminders.

If you get emails saying "Why can't I post my story" then we can start smacking our heads against brick walls. Until then like you said there's still 40 odd hours to go.

It's the calm before the storm, I know. Whether the storm will be twenty bewildered e-mails or silence still remains to be seen.

But we're cool in our modly duties, right? :)

We're very cool in our modly duties. I think we've done very well for first timers.

I'll get back to you on how well we've done when the master list is up! :)

Oh, you know that Sam went just that little bit faster because she knew it would make Daniel hyperventilate just that little bit more... ;)

They'll go to post, remember, and join - don't worry.

[though, um, if other ficathons are a good example, I almost guarantee you'll have fics that aren't posted and not hear anything from the authors]

But having betaed *counts* five (I think) of them now, I can tell you you're in for a fantastic treat!

Five? Wow! On top of your own, no less!

::salutes you::

I've personally betaed three so far, and Random reassures me that mine actually works, so... Hopefully. :)

A loud, echoing silence is the possibility that unnerves me most, I think. That the deadline will tick past without a word from people, and then uniquinum and I will spend Tuesday trying to get in touch with them.

I'm hoping that won't happen. SG-1 gets happy endings, right?

ive? Wow! On top of your own, no less!

*counts* Zats, Trout, Aurora, Rigel, Annerb. Yep, five. All SO GOOD.

As for my own...I'm still cranky at it, but I've had three betas really like it now, so I think I'm going to give up complaining about it, do the final edit, and never look at the thing again.

HURRAY!

Yeah. Odds are, it's going to happen. It's incredibly rare for a ficathon not to have at least one author just disappear. Hopefully most of it will be smooth though!

*crosses fingers for happy endings*

No no the loud echoing silence will be punctuated with our cries of terror that we imagined this whole ficathon thing.

OMG! This is so So SO SO GOOD! I have no words for how much I love this. Perfect all the way around. This is one of my all-time favorite Sam-Daniel fics. Thank you!

Wow! That's quite a compliment for such a little ficlet. Thank you! :)
