*raises hand guitily* it was me who put in TTSS (all media types), I'll go change it now. btw just wondering where could I find the 'optional details' part?

[elynross]

Hey, no guilt! It wasn't an unreasonable thing to do.

You can't actually change it now, as it got accepted already; we're just trying to clean up duplications. *g* If you let me know what you'd like it changed to (the older TV miniseries? The book?), if you want to specify, I can do that. But the optional details are what you put in your requests when you sign up, so that's not something you can do now.

[chimerari]

phew, thanks, thought I left out an optional detials part when I filled in the form (it's been known to happen)
I guess change it to the movie will be the best option really, since that's what most people are familiar with. Thanks a bunch for your help

[elynross]

Is that the new movie? If so, I'll just make sure all the characters from your nomination are available!

RE: Steam Powered Giraffe

Feel free to eliminate The Humans option.

Feel free to eliminate The Humans option.

That sounds mighty ominous for a cheery band about robots.

[kitrazzle]

At least I didn't say exterminate! ;)

[elynross]

If you're sure! I can definitely change it to a specific name.

I think you'll have to settle for something specific from her work. At the moment you've got two fandoms there, Antique Bakery and Ooku.

Antique Bakery I've seen nominated before. After a quick search it came up with only 26 stories on AO3, so at least regarding the fics on AO3 it is eligible. Maybe check the 'when is a fandom eligible' guide for other indicators (ff.net, other archives?).
I haven't found anything for Ooku, looks like it would be new to the AO3 tag list.

If you've got two nominations still open, take them both. Otherwise you might have to choose one of them and run with that.

On the characters I can't really help as I always am very specific with my characters. ^^; I know there was a discussion once how to handle characters if it really doesn't matter to you and you're fine with 'Any'. I hope someone else can help you on that. *crosses fingers*

I remembered seeing a Yuletide treat for Ooku in the past, so I did some digging and found it in the Yuletide Madness 2010 collection. It's listed as Ooku: The Inner Chambers or Ōoku. Hope that helps!

[belina]

I see!

Just rechecked and it IS indeed Ōoku and not just Ooku. But I guess with 3 stories (2 over 1000 words) it would still be eligible. ;)

Now I just wonder about the 'ōo' combo and want to see it written in Japanese... ^^;

Cassius might have been mine for Julius Caesar - William Shakespeare.

[elynross]

Yay, that's it, I'll put him in his place! *g*

[bettef]

I also nominated Brutus in that fandom, without the (Julius Caesar - Shakespeare) tag after it. So if that's a question too, Brutus and Cassius are probably both mine :)

[elynross]

No, Brutus went through fine. It's an arcane process, I'm never quite sure how characters become "unassociated" from their approved fandoms. *g*
