Let's pretend I didn't miss Kevin's birthday by forty minutes.

[bubbleforest]

Happy birthday, Kevin! I hope it's been fantastic and full of family fun. And I can't believe I still type these things like they actually read the well wishes. Haha, oh man, the teenybopper in me will never die

I'm so excited! Sesa is always such an angst-ridden blast. ♥

Hee! You're gonna get Chandler's victory dance, because ... well. He's excited for sesa too!

[bubbleforest]

Bwah! You know, I'm pretty sure there is. I'm not in the fandom either, but I know they've got a primer over at ship_manifesto so there should be stuff around.

Sesa is so awesome! Second year is definitely far less scary than first year. :D I'm sure you'll do fantastic!

Well, there's talk of another MTYG test run mid-month, so I'm going to guess that sign-ups will be around the end of October.

I hope *you* get the GSF requests - of all the possible assignments I think that's the one I dread most!

[bubbleforest]

!!!!!!

Oh my God, DREAM REQUEST. You people! I do not! Understand! Commence flailing!

[kikiduck]

Oh my god, I still haven't really even started on bittybang and now you've got me excited for sesa. WTF.

[bubbleforest]

Mwahahahahaaaa. I tend to not start on sesa until a week before the deadline, so hey, lots of time left if you look at it that way!

[kikiduck]

Wow, Brian. How do you manage to make fully clothed on a beach look so sexy?

I could probably do 20,000 words in a week if I had do, but I'm hoping I won't have to. That would be stressful.

[bubbleforest]

He is freaking talented that way. It's a little scary!

Wow, that would be stressful. Really impressive, though. But if it does come to back, at least there's a whole month just for editing. \o/

I've managed to cut down on my icons (because that long scrollbar makes me weep)

i don't understand the scrollbar comment.

[bubbleforest]

I will explain it to you!

You see, when I have to choose an icon for a comment, I get a list of icons that's so long that a scrollbar appears. And when that gets too long, I forget which icons I have and that makes me sad.

[boomingvoice]

hahaha. oh man, I don't know what's funnier - that this is a foreign experience to me (COMPLETELY), or that it is a sad thing to have too many icons :(

You know. They ought to have a thing where you CAN use one keyword for multiple icons, and LJ just chooses randomly when the keyword is used. I LIKE THAT PLAN. Good plan.

Go to bed! Or not, whatever pleases you.

[bubbleforest]

I think it's a happy experience for most! I just tend to feel overwhelmed when I have too many options. Stress, stress!

YOU KNOW. I think Firefox actually has an add-on that will select your userpics randomly for you! Which would be amazing, only I don't use Firefox. The world, it is out to get me! :(

Bwahaha! I will. Soon. I think.

I suppose I don't really need seven AJ/Brian icons.

{stares at sentence}

The words are all English, and they seem to be in the right order, but...but...they make no sense.

You know, today I got randomly excited about sesa sign-ups. I'm not sure when they start - sometime in October?

Hopefully some time in October, yes. I'm starting to get excited, too. Right now, I have the Head Tech Elf hard at work on some super-sekrit new features for this year.

Hee! I get to use my MtYG icon for the first time this time round!

*bounces maniacally*

There's this strange voice in my head (that I don't recognize, as opposed to all the other strange voices in my head...) that's wondering if I can posit "Yes, I'll write GSF, but only *NSYNC, not Backstreet or crossover" on the submission form this year. Which is INSANE, but I almost want to. You know, right at this moment. That desire might change in the next hour, who knows. But if I wrote more than just the guys, it'd end up sounding like a Camp Sparkle Add Five Words story.

But EEEEEE, SeSa/MtYG, EXCITING!!!

also, Anna, your failed comprehension is very lulzy. Heee.

[nopseud]

Sadly, there is no crossover GSF option -- we were following the DWNOGA system, and they never had one.

Maybe we should poll on mtyg_discuss to find out how many people would flee the challenge in terror if such a thing existed. :-)

[ninjetti75]

HAH.

Maybe you should just add an "Absolute Crack, Please" option...but actually, that might get clicked a lot, really. *g*
