Poll: Choose Your Fandoms

[thefourthvine]

Wait! Wait, please don't scroll past.

Yes, I know you've probably seen at least one other poll like this today. I have, too. In fact, I've seen four polls about popular current fandoms in the last 48 hours or so, mostly as people gear up for year-end stuff. And the results have been oddly variant, depending on who was hosting the poll and the

Question. How do you define 'most active'? I mean--my current problem is that I'm not really 'most active' in *any* fandoms at the moment. Yes, it's tragic. I feel very adrift.

And--do you count 'watching and obsessing over vids' as a fannish activity? Because if so, I would be checking a lot more boxes and also adding some. (QaF, for instance. And the O.C. And VMars, and Invisible Man, and Life On Mars and--hell, this is why I like to consider vidding a fandom: it's the only place where I reallly fit!)

You know, I had "Vids" on the fandom list, and then I took it off because I thought only three people would check it, and I was one of them, and I already knew about the other two, so it seemed gratuitous. But now I'm thinking - well. Maybe there are more vidfans than I thought.

I didn't try to add it in a write-in box, but I am slowwwly becoming a vidfan. And it is a separate fandom, IMO, because I'll watch vids for shows I've no interest in ever seeing ever.

*nods nods*

It is indeed a separate fandom - I approach vids differently than I do stories. And I will totally watch vids in fandoms I don't read, don't know, don't like; it's a whole different deal.

And, uh, I'm not too bright, 'cause I forgot to answer your first question. I define "most active" however you define "most active" - if you are on total fandom hiatus, then obviously don't check any of the boxes.

But vidding counts as a fandom. It's just not on there (go ahead and check the "other fandom that isn't a comic book, anime, etc." box) because I second-guessed myself.

I feel very adrift.

Awwww. *pats*
