Poll: Mensa AU Fic Exchange?

[trobadora]

Since there can't be too much Mensa AU fic and now we're not all distracted by more shiny new eps to think about, we at mensa_au thought it might be a good time to try something we've been talking about for a while - a Mensa AU fic exchange!

Of course, it'll work a lot better if we're not the only ones who think it would be fun, so we have a small poll for you to express interest in either taking part or just reading the fics.

Sign ups would be open for a couple of weeks, writing would be six or seven weeks from the second week of March (so fics due end April/beginning of May), the exchange would be open to gen, slash and het requests, no pairing restrictions.

So, anyone up for it?

I'd just like to say that while I'd LOVE to do this, I'm worried because the timing is almost identical to sticksandsnark. And also I've sucked at finishing things lately. (See: my remix story, which is STILL not done!)

So my yes is actually a maybe, I guess I'm saying.

[trobadora]

You won't have to decide until sign-ups close - and they haven't even opened yet! This is just to get a general idea how many people would be interested. But it'd be lovely if you could manage. I'm sure you can. And I'll poke and prod you periodically if you want. *g*

And as for the remix story... *cheers you on* :D

*whimpers* I have 6,000 of UTTER WEIRDNESS. (I decided to remix "Four Quarters." What was I THINKING?)

[trobadora]

What was I THINKING?

That it'd be awesome? I know I think so. :D

Seriously, that is such a cool idea - possibly the coolest thing you could have thought of! I'm literally bouncing here - I can't wait to see what you've come up with! OMG!

*bounces some more*

Um, it'd be a maybe I'd have a go, depending on story length requirements and how well my thesis is going. But there wasn't a "maybe I'd write" box to check. Cool idea though and I'd love to try to write a mensa AU story. :)

[trobadora]

I'm glad you like it! This poll is just to see how many people would be interested, generally speaking - we'll post full details next week. I hope you'll sign up!

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Oh sure. I'll keep an eye out for it. :)

I clicked that I'd contribute, but I just wanted to let you know that it's a strong maybe. I've been wanting to write a Mensa!AU story for a while though, so I'll probably sign up. *g*

[trobadora]

It's just a tickybox! You won't have to decide for real until sign-ups end, and they haven't even opened yet. *g*

That said, I do hope you'll take part. It looks like it's going to be great fun!
