This is what they call a first world problem, yes?

I wonder if my last Yuletide nomination is ever getting approved. Or rejected*. Something. Anything?

*Though I sort of doubt that, as there is no fanfic for it and it got approved last year...

I don't knoooow, what is going ON with Yuletide? I am so impatient to see the nominations and yet we are STILL waiting, urgh, I need a new hobby :(

But yeah, I understand the archive is playing tricks on them, bugs blabla.

[oneiriad]

The last rumours I've heard (oh, how rumour mills love it when no official statements are made) is that the mods broke something by opening the archive before having finished all the tags, so they are going to have to throw the whole lot out and we all get to start over...

[calvinahobbes]

Hahaha, I think that's a classic case of feather-->five chickens. At least I chose to believe so until they actually tell me all that time (their own work most certainly included) has just been wasted.

[oneiriad]

Yeah, probably. I'd still like an update, though. Or an approval. Either would do just fine.

[calvinahobbes]

Wellll, what is an approval really worth if all your noms are scrapped anyway? ;) Btw, where are you getting your highly credible rumor information?

[oneiriad]

Yuletide_coal. Which is of course the most credible source around ;-)

[calvinahobbes]

Ah of course!

Oh. Do you think they're stalking my journal? Their timing seems - intersting... *paranoid is I*

[kabal42]

Well, there IS a post from the mods now here: http://yuletide-admin.livejournal.com/155324.html#comments - wherein they state that 229 fandoms are still under review and they're working on a fix for the bug, planning to open the tagset this weekend. So I think everything is ok - and your fandom fits the bill of the late ones, ie. the categor of "very small fandoms". Which is probably why "A Land Fit For Heroes" was the last of mine too.

[oneiriad]

How long can it take to review a couple of hundred of mostly small fandoms? *iz impatient*

[kabal42]

I sympathise! I was feeling very much in limbo and like everyone else was done - and mine got approved 2 days ago!

[oneiriad]

Finally.

[kabal42]

Did you get it?

[oneiriad]

Yep. So now I can ask for someone to write me Viking themed crazy christmas shenanigans. :-)

Right, off to plan letter/requests.

[kabal42]

Yay! :D
