People doin' Yuletide WRONG

[lizardbeth]

So yuletide_admin (or Home/archive) is the annual ficathon/fest for rare, obscure and dead fandoms.

And every year someone tries to nominate some wildly NON-OBSCURE fandom, and it cracks me up every time.

Last year someone tried to nominate High School Musical for Yuletide. I smacked it down.
(Seventeen THOUSAND fics at the Pit. Even if 90% magically don't count because they're crap, that's STILL more fic than some ineligible fandoms have.)

Anyway, this year's funny? Lotrips

*dies*

(I realize it's deader than it used to be but COME ON.)

ETA: Aaaaaand NOW we have Merlin added! Because there aren't a gazillion fics for that fandom or anything...

I am WAITING for someone to add Twilight. or Harry Potter.

This looks like so much fun! Except, there's no information about it on the community you linked to? Do I have to go to the admin group for that, or somewhere else, or what?

I SO want to do Yuletide and I so can't.

dammit, if I nominate a fandom I have to sign up to write, right?

There's one I wanted in there for a few years but I don't write.
