Oh, very exciting! I enjoyed doing this so much over the years. ::goes off to start making a list::

deirdre_c February 6 2013, 22:18:16 UTC

I hadn't realized how long it had been since she'd done it. I'm so glad it's back. :)

But what if you're not on the list and you're the sad kid on Valentine's day with the empty box taped to their desk?? :((((

kellifer_fic February 6 2013, 21:12:04 UTC

Oooooh... and now I feel bad - because I just had a look at 2009 and I was on there and had no idea!

Well, I guess that's always the risk for these kind of fandom love memes/free vgift giveaways/etc. I mean, I've got 300+ friends on LJ, someone's going to be disappointed they didn't get a message from me. *sigh*

But, on the other hand, I like to think of it as giving 14 people a nice boost, whether I get anything or not! Love for some better than no love at all?

Awwww... very true!!

svmadelyn February 6 2013, 21:10:13 UTC

Awww, I honestly didn't think anyone had really ever noticed that I stopped...doing it, weirdly enough. It wasn't until that girl approached me and said something super nice about it that I even really thought about it. I'm glad people are so pumped - I already have 10 emails, all of which maxed out at their 14 people. ;) Should be a good one!

deirdre_c February 6 2013, 22:28:07 UTC

I really enjoyed it, year after year it was something I looked forward to! <3

Let's hope this time the logistics of it aren't overwhelming to you!

I found my name in the last one, 2009! I'd totally forgotten about that. It was so nice to read again. :)

We don't celebrate Valentine's Day here and even if we did mr_felis refuses to do romantic/flower-gifty things "on demand". Valentine's, Women's Day, Mother's Day... Which I wouldn't mind if he was better at just doing random romantic things instead. *huffs*

Well, LJ has changed a lot since 2009, we'll have to see if this round gets as many participants. You deserve tons of comments! :) :) :)

I'm torn, because I'm not a big fan of celebrating "Hallmark Holidays" (as in, faux celebrations mostly for the benefit of the greeting card companies), but I do like having the excuse to love upon people! Mr Felis needs to work on his spontaneous flower-buying.

Oh this is so cool and I didn't even know that it existed before today! And as kellifer_fic mentioned, I too got a valentine back in 2009 and I didn't even know *sad face*

I'm definitely going to do my 14 people this year!

deirdre_c February 7 2013, 09:18:36 UTC

I don't know how famous it was fandom-wide, but I definitely remember it being a big deal among my flist back then. Hopefully people have fun with it again now that it's back! :)

<333

I don't think it was that famous fandom-wide otherwise I would have known about it. I'm definitely going to have fun with it now :)
