Correction and impending edit of a previous post

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

A couple of days ago, one of the members asked to pimp an upcoming cross-fandom fest. After speaking with court1426, I agreed to copy her post into a post here.

Now, understand that this is not a diss on the lovely , not at all. She merely asked to call attention to a writing fest. Things like this equal new fic for us, so I say it's a good thing.

Here is the original post.

I was contacted by the mod of that comm this morning. She informed me that it seemed as if commenters that went to the comm site to nominate QAF were "ballot stuffing", and possibly had no intention on writing for other fandoms. I did mention to her that that was an assumption on her part, that we have a lot of writers here that write not only for QAF, but other fandoms as well. The issue is this, as laid out by the mod: There were to be five fandom nominations per participant, not just one. Also, the participants would then be matched to two fandoms. You can go here to read the fest rules.

As a result of this, only Queer As Folk challenges and/or fests will be mentioned here from now on.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Well, damn.

Thanks for being willing to pimp anyway, I appreciate it. Even if it ended with the mod banning the fandom. ^_^'

No problem.

I just felt that with all the fandoms listed at the comm, one more wouldn't hurt. And what she did was basically guarantee that no one will write any QAF fic. And the ones that are multi-fandom won't write because they feel dissed.
