FictionAlley has been upgraded beautifully! There is a lovely new search engine, a listing of all authors by name, and new author pages to add information to! I'm quite excited.

merry_smutmas has begun!
I'm still trying to figure out what one does here...obviously, it's supposed to be a secret about who wrote what, so you can't reply to any comments about your fic until it's revealed...do people go back and comment when it's revealed, or do they do it anon? The first few fics are up, and it doesn't look like the authors are responding, so my guess is that nothing is commented upon or mentioned until the big reveal at the end of the month.
I'm so geeked!

Mmm...spaghetti/Survivor/CSI OTP. I love Thursdays.
ETA: Spam subject line of the day:
I sign my approval phizog [Sounds like some sort of antiquated hip-hop contract.]

Date: 2005-12-02 02:58 am (UTC)Saw your pimping thread...I did that once, a while ago. It's a lot of fun! I think that there are a lot of people in the fandom who don't celebrate their talents loudly enough, and it's nice to have such an outlet. :)

Date: 2005-12-02 03:28 am (UTC)Yes. :-) You can do it either way, and people have done both. It's up to you. Just, if you do decide to respond to your feedback anon, please log out before doing so, because it's so easy to forget to click that radio button that takes you anon if you're logged in.

Date: 2005-12-02 03:31 am (UTC)I think staying mum is probably the best idea. You're definitely right that comment replying could give away an identity. I would so totally slip up somehow. :) And anyway, I'm about 99% certain my identity will be blatantly obvious when the story is posted!

Date: 2005-12-02 05:19 am (UTC)Me too! He thought he had everyone played, all in the palm of his hand. They got him good. I was so glad I think I shouted 'YES!' when Jeff said his name. And then he calls everyone scumbags as he leaves. What a classy guy. And he still keeps insisting he never lied about anything. WTF? Just three days before that when Gary exposed his lying, he admitted to it. I think he has short-term memory problems or something. Or maybe he's just a stupidass who doesn't realize how dumb he looks when he tells lies on camera and then insists he's never done such a thing.

Date: 2005-12-02 06:25 am (UTC)He was just so sure of himself and acted as such. He was a loudmouth and honestly? After the merge, the tribe didn't need him anymore. His strength isn't needed in the challenges. I'm actually surprised Rafe is doing as well as he is in the challenges. Ooo...Steph was so pissed at Dani tonight (hate her stupid hat). I'm so pulling for Steph to win. Husband and I love her and think she deserves it. And she's got great eyebrows. I wish I could pluck/wax like that.

Date: 2005-12-02 01:30 pm (UTC)Ah, my Thursday was turning the tele to USA for 8pm's Law and Order: Criminal Intent (god, I'm hooked on that man...) and then watching some dvds from that show as I worked on my picture. Twas a good night. :D

Date: 2005-12-02 07:12 pm (UTC)And yeah, he isn't too bright about his strength, either. When they were two tribes, he was needed to help the team win. But after it's individual? No, then your strength is just a threat to your position. Everyone knows that.
I'm glad Rafe is doing well, I hope he makes it to the final four. Even better if he wins. He's at least an honest, decent person. Not doing too much posturing or bald-faced lying. I like Steph too, but don't know if I want to see her win. Part of me thinks she already had her chance, the other part thinks she really should have won it last time, so if she wins, she's getting something that she should have had.
