I immediately posted and squeed about this already on Twitter last Wednesday, but I realized I hadn't done it here!
Yuletide fandom nominations are open until Wednesday, Oct. 20th!
I nominated:
**Community
**Spider-Girl
**Scott Pilgrim
**No Ordinary Family
**Looney Tunes
--I can't remember #6! :D
I hope with the new algorithm, they'll all make it in. I'm most worried about Spider-Girl, which has like, 10 fics, two by me, since they disallowed the whole Spider-Man universe last year. It does fit the "small on AO3" label. But somewhere I read (can't find it!) as an example, that nominating Birds of Prey was kosher, though it's generally in the Batman universe (which isn't), as long as you don't do it to write a Batman story.
Anyway! What did you/are you going to nominate? And will you offer any of mine?

I wish I had thought about trying for Ultimate Spider-man! It got rejected last year, so I didn't bother.
Anyway, I'll definitely offer BB, Despicable Me and HTTYD. I'll likely offer way too many things, as usual. :D
Oh, I guess you're right about not telling what we're offering! But I'm offering SO MANY most likely, that it's a total crap shoot. :D
The only good thing of the Spidey reboot is that they might pick a hot teeenage looking guy to look Peter, and we'll get more people writing fanfic about him again.
And yes, I hope that the reboot bring in more fic FOR SURE.
Depending on what makes the cut, I'll probably offer for Community. Most of my fandoms that I write in are bigger fandoms so ... we'll see. And I would consider offering for NOF, but I have never written a word of fic for that show so IDK. I am really enjoying it though.
I nommed Community as well, BBT (duh), Hunger Games, The Guild and Six Feet Under.
Oh, awesome, I didn't know that you watched NOF! I'm liking it a lot, I especially like the central marriage, and the kids seem realistic, not hyperdramatic like Glee or the CW shows can be. Is there any fic for it yet at all? :D
I'll offer BBT and the The Guild for sure, if the former makes it.
The last few days, they have pinch hitters write stories for the defaulters, and open up all the requests to everyone to see to write drabbles as "stocking stuffers."
Then on Christmas Day, the stories go live, but the authors' names are hidden. Everyone reads and reviews as many as possible for a week, then the authors are revealed on New Years' Day.
It's MASSIVELY fun. You should try it if you have at least 3 fandoms in the list when signups start in early November.
