Hey shippers!
So, we were completely blown away by the sheer volume of sign-ups (374 at the time of this writing); as a sort of stop-gap measure while we try to get the team lists up, feel free to comment here and tell others what team(s) you signed up for!

oops, i failed?

[8luejay]

Wow what even happened there with that irreparable invalid markup stuff? D:
Can you tell I'm new to dreamwidth too? Sorry! orz;

Re: oops, i failed?

[graveexcitement]

I'm also quite new to Dreamwidth. Wonder what happened there...

Those are some cool ships! I was considering Rose<3Terezi, but Rose<3<Terezi didn't even cross my mind... I'm new to doing anything like this as well. I think I'll probably be writing but I'm an artist as well. I'm just slightly more confident in my writing skills than my drawing skills. Slightly.

Re: oops, i failed?

[8luejay]

I have no idea, I just typed it normally. D:

Thanks! Personally I do tend to lean more black with them but seershipping is good no matter what~ And I'm pretty much the opposite haha, I feel just a little more confident with my drawing than writing but I'm not at all opposed to giving it a shot! ;u;

......... Except I feel like I should mention that my computer suddenly decided to crash today? It worked fine last night but now it won't even come up dsfjkl I swear I have the worst luck ever. I'll try my best to get it fixed as soon as possible and borrow one in the meantime though, it shouldn't hopefully affect my ability to participate (assuming I even got on the team of course since I haven't seen the Terezi<3Vriska names listed yet). ;;

Re: oops, i failed?

[graveexcitement]

I have to say, I tend more towards lightshipping than seershipping - I've seen all manner of amazing Rose/Vriska things, both black and red. Seershipping is pretty great too though.

...What if Rose/Vriska/Terezi? In... any combination of quadrants, really.

Aw man, I really hope your computer problems stop being problems!

Re: oops, i failed?

[8luejay]

Oh yes, Rose/Vriska is very nice too! And omg you know, I actually considered signing up for Rose<3<Vriska<3Terezi as a second or third choice but I really didn't think it would get enough people for a team. That is something I would definitely like to see somewhere though eue And thanks ;u; I'm really hoping it won't still be an issue by the time things get started here!

Re: oops, i failed?

[graveexcitement]

Rose<3<Vriska<3Terezi sounds awesome - as would Rose<3Vriska<3Terezi, or Rose<3<Vriska<3<Terezi - like I said, any combination would be great. It'll be a while yet till the first main round starts, and a whole two weeks before Bonus Round 0, so you'll probably be fine!

Re: oops, i failed?

[8luejay]

Oh yes, any combination would indeed be pretty great. eue Then again, I pretty much ship all the ladies with all the other ladies so I'm not exactly picky about ships and quadrants, haha. lesbians, lesbians everywhere--

And yeah, my dad says he thinks he might be able to fix my laptop if I can just send it to him, so hopefully that should get taken care of fairly quickly! I'm really excited about this since I've never done anything like hso, especially with such a huge fandom ;u; I'd hate to let something dumb like computer problems mess that up!

Re: oops, i failed?

[graveexcitement]

Ohhh yes. I completely agree. Especially when it comes to my favorite ladies: Rose, Terezi, and Vriska.

I've never done anything like HSO either! In fact, I'm a little disappointed, because there's a span of two weeks during the HSO that I'll have no internet access whatsoever, two weeks I'll have some access, and nearly two weeks I'll have limited/unknown access. This may mean that I'll only be able to do Main Round 1 and Bonus Rounds 2, 5, & 6. On the other hand, I may be able to squeeze in everything but Main Round 2 and Bonus Round 2. I rather wish that I had more time this summer, but then again I will be doing some rather fun things. They just won't be fun internet things, haha!

Re: oops, i failed?

[8luejay]

Wow sorry this is a little late! But fff yes, I've always been really terrible about shipping my favorite characters with literally anyone >u>;; Vriska and Terezi are probably my favorite ladies too! I do rather like Rose but... not... quite as much I guess? ;u;' idk, ranking characters is hard I LOVE EVERYONE

Aww, well at least you'll be around for some of it! I hope you have fun doing your other things too though :D Personally I don't have a life anything planned for the summer as of right now that should really interfere with participation in any of the rounds, and my computer's already gotten fixed so I think I'm good! If my creativity cooperates, that is u_u

Re: oops, i failed?

[graveexcitement]

Ranking characters IS hard! Especially when you have to consider both canon and the awesome fanon interpretations. I actually used to not like Feferi - I guess I thought she was just nice, and that bored me? But that's not the case at all.

Anyways, there are several cases where I'll have Internet connection for only the very first day or last day of a prompt, and others where I really don't know how much time on the computer I'll get; could be a lot of time, could be a little. So I might be able to participate in lots of things, or I might not be able to do very much.

Typical that the one summer I have something planned, there are also lots of family vacation-type stuff. Oh well, I'm sure I'll still have fun!

Also, it's awesome that your computer got fixed :D

[ex_civilian608]

Woah Rose<3<Vriska<3Terezi I've never considered that but WHAT A GOOD SHIP. (Rose<3Kanaya<3Vriska<3<Rose is my default ladyship OT3 but Seer sandwiches are delicious and I think this could come close!) (hi future teammate!)

Re: oops, i failed?

[8luejay]

I thought so! eue But oh man Rose<3Kanaya<3Vriska<3<Rose is really excellent too. I can't pick, can i just have all the ladies. together. that would be gr8-- And hello to you too!! :D Sorry this is a bit of a late reply btw, I've been having some computer issues but they seem to be resolved now!
