Don't Stop Coal Now!

[coalcube]

Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real coal time
I feel alive
And the exchange I'll turn it inside out, yeah
I'm floating around in agony
So, (don't stop me now)
(Don't stop me)
'Cause I'm having a coal time, having a coal time~

There are bookmarks from Morbane dated December 18th, asking the author to contact the mods. I thought the mods had everyone's email address??

If you ghost the emails (or “don’t check that email”) the mods have to comment/do shit like this

Bookmarks are a terrible way to contact writers. You don't get a notification, you have to be actively looking at your bookmarks.

Since these were made before work reveals, I don't even know if the author could have seen them.

It’s the only way you can leave a “note”. You can bookmark unrevealed works but you can’t comment on them.

They should have just kicked them out at the default deadline and not given these authors any time.

Gee I wonder if the Yuletide mods, with decades of experience between them, considered emailing the participant in question?

It was a treat, and it looks like from a non-participant otherwise, so they wouldn't necessarily.

This whole thing is so weird! It's one of the only works on that account, it's not like they're a prolific yuletide regular, why so insistent about this one treat for a random music video?

That is just ... gloriously weird.

Thank you, coal!
Without you, I never would have known about this trainwreck or Winterblumensaat.

I wonder if it was always a treat or if it was an defaulted assignment they tried to finish
