So the sky didn't fall

So much for coalies claiming the mods wanted to strictly enforce ALL OR NOTHING. You can keep your subsets.

The mods are the ones who brought this suggestion up. Are we not to take them at their word that it was an option?

I appreciate that it was a meme from some show, since I remember seeing it in gif form, but can we please not have misogynistic slurs, even as a joke, in posts? It's really not fun for me to be addressed in this way.

Bitch, please! Keep your terminally offended attitude far away from coal, so I don't have to roll my eyes at it.

If you see the word bitch and think it's aimed at you, I suggest avoiding coal until you no longer identify as a bitch.

Counterpoint: the next post should have a cunt reference so that coal can remain global.

Promo Roast

(Anonymous) 2023-09-17 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
What looks good to you in the fandom promo post? What looks like a mess? What could be promo'd better? Are any canons being wildly misrepresented?

Have you ever picked up a fandom for Yuletide based on a promo, only for it to be Not As Advertised and you need to vent about it somewhere? Go ahead.

If you're looking to avoid bitchiness, what are you doing at coal, coalie?

Lol there's a difference between "we might do that or we might do a lot of other things, what do you think?" and "here's ten options but sucks to be you we were going to use ~feedback as an excuse to do worst option seven".

Is ROAR an anthology show or does the person promoting it just want fic about an ordinary serial show, but a character who appears in one episode? I can't tell from the description.

Coalie!! I don't know what the fuck you're talking about but I love the melodramatic soap opera way you went about it. From the title, to the bitter EMPHASIS -- I can practically see the shimmer of your shoulder pads as you fling a glass of prosecco and declare, "You can keep your subsets!

Who's already started nomming?

(Anonymous) 2023-09-17 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
And who's waiting a while or still deciding what to nom?

(Anonymous) 2023-09-17 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I am flattered! I was trying to start this post with some drama! Concrit also welcome <3 'shimmer of your shoulder pads' is a great phrase and I'm glad to metaphorically wear it!

Waiting because I'm lazy. Before I nominate I need to figure out the passwords to all my socks I haven't used since last Yuletide and then go in and look at what I nominated last time.

Oh! It's that name again

(Anonymous) 2023-09-17 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
You never see them around otherwise but at Yuletide you remember the person exists.

Which are they, whether the association is negative or positive?

Aunt_zelda. And my reaction is pure *shudder*.

It's an anthology show.

slightly disappointed it's not the nineties show with the same name, with baby heath ledger fighting the romans

Would you be fine with a post starting surprise, nigger? surprise, kike?, surprise, [insert slur that you actually acknowledge to be a problem, perhaps because it's not directed towards women]?

I've already nominated. My dentist is still making their decision.
