After an hour and a couple of refreshes, my sign-up just got through using Firefox! :D

The Youtube video was extremely helpful! Thanks so much for that!

The only thing that confused me at first was how to request 'Any' characters, which is probably because my brain was still stuck in the mindset of the old form and it didn't even occur to me to leave the character field empty. For next year, a note might be useful somewhere in the instructions (on AOL, the comms, or Youtube, whatever) for idiots like me. :P

Thanks so much for all you work! You deserve infinite cookies, alcohol, and sleep. Possibly not in that order...

I got it to load, but I'm now being told that two tags I know exist (because I wrangled them!) are invalid and cannot be entered. Trouble is, they're crucial to one of my requests. D: And so I can't resubmit my sign-up until I can use them. Any ideas? Should I try to find Franzi and talk to her about this?

Okay, so one has been made an incorrect canonical - I must not have been paying attention when I wrangled that, I guess. The other isn't there at all. I know I added her. ARGH. X_____________X;

I emailed yuletide@yuletidetreasure.org, but I'm a little worried I won't get an Ao3 invite. Anybody considering starting a post for requesting/giving Ao3 invites?

There's a thread up above...

I have one invite left if you want it, I just need your email!

I am not in OW, but I woul like to join the yuletide this year. Unfortunately, in my timezone is very late now and I am off to sleep soon, but will I still be able to make it?

floranna November 13 2010, 22:09:28 UTC

AOW, dammit.

If you don't have an Archive of Our Own account, you can email and ask for one using this address: yuletide@yuletidetreasure.org

That way you will get the invite before sign-ups close on the 19th of November.

A03 keeps giving me overload notices, so I can't see the challenge info - what's the deadline? I'll try again after the initial rush of applicants goes... assuming I've got time.

The deadline is the 19th, so don't worry!
