A bit of BSG fandom love

Nov 27, 2007 20:38

I am filled with warm fuzzies for BSG fandom at the moment. The response to the first challenge at bsg_hiatusthon has been really wonderful so far--we have sign-ups for nearly every day between now and Christmas! It would, of course, be super-cool if there was a post every day... *makes puppy eyes* If anyone out there feels like jumping in with an early drabble ( Read more... )

Hee! Well, see how you go. I have no idea if it'll be your thing or not, and it's probably a hard one to pick up midway.

There is so much good Razor meta out there that I think I could spend the next six months replying - I'm still putting together my thoughts on asta77's meta, although too many days away from home has dropped me to a crawl :P

I read marenfic's piece before commenting here (no way to watch vids at work, sadly) and I have to say I think that since you joined the BSG fandom, the level of debate and interest in Lee has increased - not just because of the enthusiasm and insight you bring, but because you've put other intelligent and insightful people together and fostered debate. I had never heard of asta77 or daybreak777 before meeting you, and now I pop across to their LJs once a week or so to read and think. So, as I don't say it often enough... thank you :)

Now, back to work...

Heh. Yeah, I still need to provide feedback on your post as well. I think the locked posting thing threw me off and now I'm trying to juggle the old meta with the new. And I started work on my Lee Adama post which I hope to get up sometime this week. It's great though, having so much to think about and discuss and it's all from such smart, sane people. ;-) I'm also happy to have been introduced to you too. :)

It's true there is a flood of great meta! \o/

You are very kind but I'm not sure I can take that much credit. Though I'm VERY pleased if I've been able to help other fans find interesting people to debate with.

So, as I don't say it often enough... thank you :)
I don't say it often enough either: thank you for all your comments, feedback, debates and well, everything. :)

I am filled with warm fuzzies too! BSG has been such a lovely intro to fandom this year. I was so nervous but people are so kind and patient and smart. Yeah, fans get passionate but it's nice to see people who actually care about well-created entertainment. You know I probably wouldn't be here if not for your passion for Lee, Bop. And your friendliness. And generosity. And you just being Bop!

Yay for you being in a Kara mood! Me too. :-) The vids are wonderful. I'm so impressed with people already using clips of Razor in vids. They are fast!

I'm always glad you keep writing about Lee. Never stop writing about him. I have such a true fondness and love for him lately after Razor. The Lee I always wanted to see more of got a whole movie!

Things on LJ won't always be so bouncy. But whatever happens, I got off to a good start and have some great memories. Hopefully, nothing will ever take that away.

*hugs the BSG peeps I know*

Heee. Yeah because my insane inability to understand Kara triggered you to reply and set me straight? ;p How lucky we are to have you in the fandom now with your enthusiasm and wonderful recs and meta posts.

YUH-HUH! It makes me sick with envy. I choose to believe they don't have day jobs. ;p

Awww, don't feel guilty. I always look forward to your thoughts/feedback, but it's not like I'm going anywhere. And 'Razor' is all we have to discuss until April! I actually want to go back and reread some posts after watching 'Razor' again.

This is true! If I take a relaxed approach to working through everyone's meta I'll feel less guilty. And it will actually mean the pleasure is extended... :)

That was a great post. ITA - I'm really glad I met you and my other friends who come at the show from different perspetives, but are always sane about it and open to other points of view. It's definitely enriched my viewing experience. :D /sappiness

So this means when your brain resolidifies you need to tell me what you think about Ron's Q+A answer about Lee knowing the real deal re. Cain. :D

Every so often it's fun to be sappy about fandom. :)

Ok, I'll make a note for when my brain solidifies. :) I must say that RDM's a bit too much for me right now. I will stomach him when I feel a little stronger. ;)
