Anything exciting so far? *eyes*

I'm so annoyed at people who post in their letters post "Any character (check the tagset)." No, why don't you just tell me who's in the tagset so I can tell at a glance if you're someone I'd like to write for. I'm not pulling up the tagset and scouring it for this fandom in particular, fuck you.

Oh god yes. Way to make me lowkey annoyed from the start.

(Although...is it actually the app that's doing that? I format my own letters-post comment, so I'm not sure.)

It is, mea coadie culpa. Do y'all want me to concatenate the whole list???

Yes please.

OK, now it'll expand out for new letterpeople who copypasta. Assuming I didn't just break things, because it's hard to test this one live, alas.

I can forgive the app but it was like that in their letter too!

Idk it's better than "Any character (Only lists characters not in the tagset)"

Weirdly disappointed this one isn't 100% Dracula requests: https://calliopes-pen.dreamwidth.org/1870242.html

It's like almost hitting jackpot on a slot machine.

Pretty sure that person has done all Dracula in the past!

Yup, if you look at their letter tag, last year was basically the same as this year minus hellraiser, and the year before was pure Dracula. They know what they want.

Because this is a gem: https://ljmckay.livejournal.com/123728.html

✓ Letter contains personal TMI

- Does "Genre/setting AUs or Crossovers if done well" count for DNW: bad writing?
- And did anyone have "links to the best fic in the fandom in their letter" for 2021 Letters bingo? Because that should be a square.
- It's not eye-searing, but it is very LJ c. 2002 visuals

My google-fu is failing me on finding a way for us to generated bingo cards from a common list unless we like, have a google doc and then copypasta...

I'm not sure if this is what you meant, but you can enter the list here and make cards.

Sorry, link fail. Here: http://an.owomoyela.net/fun/bingo_generator

Right! I was hoping that we could have a pre-populated one, since to use generators like the one you linked we'll need to just set up a common Google doc with the full list. Not the end of the world...

I had them as a recip once and they were fine, I didn't have any issues with them. But yeah that letter is a bit much...

I'm loving all of these people mentioning this being their first Yuletide. I wanna treat them all!

Right! I love newbies' excitement when they get an extra gift.

(I also love it when someone's taken part in Yuletide and not got treats and then they get treats! Basically: treats for everyone.)

Hell yes! All the treats!

Good odds right now for the people who bet high!

HOW do I keep matching fandoms with this person in a good way???? I love it but I don't want to get matched again as an official assignment /o\

unoffering.

I have, I have, it's more wanting this good request karma to be coming from multiple sources instead of a singular one.

Sorry, you're not making any sense at all to this coalie.
