Anyone playing MyOldFandom?

[brightknightie]

Who all is signing up for myoldfandom? We have through this Thursday, I believe.

Because there's been not a peep on the rarelywritten front so far this year, and because of how the calendars at my workplace are leading me to plan the fkficfest schedule, I've been toying with the idea of playing myoldfandom. I would probably be able to produce only something under 5K words, nothing major, no matter how much I'd like to produce more, because of work, but... the odds are indeed tempting. All my dearest fandoms are so very, very qualified. ;-)

(I'm still sick, btw. This week's FK recap is looking pretty thin.)

I considered it. But I found I disagreed with their definitions of 'no new canon' in so many fields, that I was left certain I would be a bad match for it.

(No slight on the mods or their processes; it just did not appeal once I looked at the tag set. Series owners for Angel and Buffy alike have stated those series' comics are in continuity, yet both shows are considered eligible, to give one example.)

I had noticed that the Buffyverse was allowed in; I hadn't noticed any other oddities. Different familiarities! I'd thought that I'd picked up that the mod intended the guideline to be what each fandom generally considers its genuine canon, not what the creators say... but that may well have been my own wishful thinking.

I am still considering playing, given the news that rarelywritten apparently won't be happening this year. But PJ makes an excellent point about owing other projects.
