Temporary Sign-Up Discussion Post!

[hso_mods]

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!

w-well, I finally got the nerve to sign up. My choices, in order, are Feferi♠Vriska, Feferi♥Vriska (since that has at least one person already behind it), and Aradia♥Feferi. Can you see a pattern here?

/wrings hands nervously in waiting

[mirroreuler]

:D Heh, we share the same second ship, it appears! *high five for Feferi♥Vriska* And the ship was already up when I signed up, so there is at least one other person on board as well! Yay!

[keltena]

Yay! /hi-fives back

Man, I'm so happy there are other people for Feferi and Vriska! :D I hope it gets through!

[mirroreuler]

Me, too! I have to admit, whenever sign-ups started I kept looking through the list wondering whether it would show up... And even if I get into my first choice, I'll be so happy if there's a team! The more fanworks for them the better! <3

[keltena]

I was really hyped for it, like, right before the sign-ups started, so I didn't have time to advertise or anything. It'd be great if it gets in! What was your first choice, out of curiosity? :3

[mirroreuler]

Heh, I couldn't have advertised - I didn't decide what ships I'd sign up for until the last minute! I'd kinda planned to just wait and see a team that looked cool and join it, but then everything started happening so fast so I hurried up...

Jade/Rose/Kanaya! It's so cute and yet I haven't written it or any of the subpairings yet, or a poly ship at all, plus I haven't written as much femslash as I'd like and also I thought a poly ship would solve some of my multishippy 'gahhhh I just want to join all the teams' woes by giving me more characters to work with! Though in retrospect it'll also make it harder to stay in the word limit... oh well....... But apart from whoever originally signed up under it, I haven't seen anyone else mention it at all, let alone as a first choice, so I may well not get it after all...*shrugs*

[keltena]

Yeah, that's exactly me! xD; Looks like it's going to be huge this year...

Oh, I love that ship! ^^ Good luck with that team, then -- I'd love to see it happen. They're all so precious together.

[mirroreuler]

Haha, and how. I feel pretty bad for the mods - they clearly had no idea it would be this popular... Should be very exciting, though! :D

Heh, thanks! They really are - every separate pairing within them is adorable, and all together they're even cuter! :) Hope you have good luck with VrisFef as well - I'll be watching out for your team!

[aristh]

Yay, hello you! VrisFef is reely gr8! /couldn't resist
I'm glad you're playing!

[keltena]

Heee, don't worry. Hello you as well -- what are you signed up for? VrisKan and RoseVris are my guesses, but I could be totally off. xD

[aristh]

Excellent and entirely correct guesses. I do hope there's a RoseVris team, I've seen lots of people with it as their 2nd choice (me included) but I don't know if it's made it yet... My third choice was aradia <3< vriska.
ALL LESBIANS ALL THE TIME. I rue the absence of an every lady/every lady team.

[keltena]

\o/ Man, I've got to hope there's a RoseVris team myself -- they're so excellent. And yes, Aradia<3<Vriska, what a beautiful kismesis~~ Heee. I ended up all lesbians this year too, as you can see... interesting, considering I was somehow all het last year. (Maybe I'll be all slash next year! And all threesomes the one after! Yes, this sounds like a good idea... /slapped)

[jabberwockyx]

Ahhhhh, I didn't end up signing for it, but I seriously hope that Feferi♠Vriska sails, because it is such an excellent ship, and I've never seen anyone else ship it blackrom, which is how I like it best! :D

[keltena]

Me too! And I'm surprised at that -- they're so perfect when they're blackrom! Let's keep our fingers crossed~

[runespoor]

I ship FefVriska in any quadrant though I didn't put them in my choices, but Feferi♠Vriska is awesome, and I really hope it sails.

[keltena]

Thanks! Aah, they are so beautiful together... I really do hope it ends up happening~
