Before we get to the moment you've all been waiting for, there are some thanks in order :)
So many people to thank for this but firstly:
VIXX squad: cheering team and enthusiastic participants, first guinea pigs, sounding boards for fest-related advice and the genesis of all the fun stuff (like the guessing poll and the friending meme)
Neko_90 🐱, dedicated co-mod, originator of the teasers and all the graphics
alesserrain 🐰, faithful round-up post-er and amazing publicist (if you missed her awesome round-ups, they are
here,
here and
here!)
troqes, who betaed for the fest even though she wasn't writing;
wykedpanda, who pinch-hit and wrote two fics instead of one;
thunggyu, who put up with an assignment shuffle so that every participant could get a gift they deserved; and everyone else who offered to pinch-hit 🎀
All the authors who produced such amazing work ♥ You pulled through all the deadlines despite things that may have cropped up, and have the medals to show for it :3 Every one of you (barring pinch-hitters) turned in your gifts by the deadline, and officially win at life. ⭐
Everyone who left a comment (or more than one!) to let the authors know how much they were appreciated ♥ This fest produced some awesome fics and they deserve all the love! Special shout-out to self-designated Santa stalker
alphanumerunes 🐭 and also
wykedpanda 🐻 who left a comment on every single fic of the fest!
Finally, we have a
friending meme for you to throw all the love on your fellow Santas :) Since no one dropped out after the defaulting deadline, everyone is technically eligible for participation next year... So make some fellow author friends? :D
If there's anything we could have done better, please DM
@vixxgifts to let us know! ☀
But here are some closing words from co-mod: "It was so great *------* Everything went well in the end and we all had fun *-*" /GROUP HUG AND WEEPS/ YOU ALL DID FABULOUS ;;;
Have a wonderful 2016 ♥
