Fannish Love Pile: The Post Mortem

So - amazingly - yesterday's chat actually ran the full 12 hours, and though it got quiet at times there were always people around. Much fic was discussed, videos were squee'd at, friends were made! Over the course of the day 20 people dropped by to chat, some for longer than others. For those of you who made friends and want to connect on LJ, here's a list of attendees - go be friendly!

Of course, once we got talking fic the recs started pouring out and we collectively decided what the world really needs is a book club for bandom fic! So we can rec stuff and discuss it. Sounds like fun right? Well then, [livejournal.com profile] bandombookclub was born! Get your ass over there and join! Once a week we'll take turns reccing a favourite fic, so if you have tabs and tabs of awesome you just MUST share with the world we want YOU. Or if you feel like you've read EVERYTHING in bandom and just want to get at those gems you haven't found yet - we ALSO want you. Get on over and join up.

Thanks to all who came, saw and squee'd. You're a pretty awesome bunch and it was a spectacular way to spend a lazy Sunday. Lots of folk said we should do it again, and I agree, but maybe not quite such a marathon next time!

well, i do have most of the day archived, i think except for about 20 minutes where my computer got confused at me. Unfortunately its on my REAL lap top... the one I broke. *sigh*

Fingers crossed the really smart people at the computer store can fix it? Or at least salvage my HD.

I'm sure they'll at least be able to fix the hard drive *fingers crossed for you*

It was short but sweet, and now you're all versed up in the the chat program you wont have any problems next time. Phooey to you not having anything to contribute! Being new doesn't mean you have nothing to offer. Random chats FTW!

Sorry I missed it, I was in and out all day - stupid production meetings. But I was getting updates from pikasafire as I wandered past.

Will definitely head over for bandom book club as soon as I stop being distracted by the Great Comedy Debate!

Boo hiss for production meetings! But I'm sure pikasafire kept you up to date with the various squee.

Yes! Do come join the bookclub! 'Twill be a good show!

[identity profile] kasuchans-v2.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 12:58 pm (UTC)(link)
What bands does the book club apply to?

[identity profile] kasuchans-v2.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 12:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, did you use my playlist?
ext_399013: (frankie)

[identity profile] ladyfoxxx.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 01:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Indeed! Not so much as a playlist in the end since people were coming and going so much, but it was a very useful resource for throwing up cool vids. Thanks so much for taking the time to make it, pity you couldn't make the chat :(

[identity profile] kasuchans-v2.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 01:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, goodie! I meant it as more of a "here are some good gay/slashy/hot videos to get you started, work from there!" kinda thing. Wish I could have made it, was busy and don't have AIM. :(
ext_399013: (frankie guitar sex 3)

[identity profile] ladyfoxxx.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 01:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm good question - just the bands under the bandom umbrella I would imagine. I can't see us getting too finicky over it. Probably much along the guidelines for most Bandom comms, you know the usual, MCR, FOB, the FBR crews, MSI etc.

[identity profile] kasuchans-v2.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 01:48 pm (UTC)(link)
'Kay, good. I hope it actually stays active!

Aw man it was crazy busy for a while there. I only crashed once, but that was my netbook saying "I've had enough!" rather than AIM itself.

\o/ That you're joining the comm! Very exciting!

I wish I could have made it. It sounds like a lot of fun. The bandombookclub sounds fun *goes off to join*
ext_399013: (Frankie is actually a zombie)

[identity profile] ladyfoxxx.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
There'll probably be another with less-drunkened planning so people can have a bit more notice. Hurrah for new members! It will be very fun I'm sure.

[identity profile] dr-jasley.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Man I'm glad I found out about this even if it was like 20hours before it happened(thankfully for once I was actually off and could be all..."sleep? what is this sleep you speak of?..naps are awesome.'"

I think sometimes I got quiet...sorries. I just don't know a lot about the bands and such. Plus MCR is awesome but not my main playground...which gave me an unsteady footing.

Was still awesome though. I don't think I would have even thought to try the porn battle out for realz until I mentioned in on there.

and yay for the bookclub
ext_399013: (spencer grins)

[identity profile] ladyfoxxx.livejournal.com 2010-07-20 12:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Who needs sleep? SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK! Sleep when you're dead ala Bon Jovi. He wrote the book on it.

Don't worry, you weren't THAT quiet. We talked lots of fic and it was great. And now you can go play in the porn battle!

\o/ bookclub! \o/

[identity profile] dr-jasley.livejournal.com 2010-07-20 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
well..true...the problem stems from the fact that I don't drink caffeine.(so it gets interesting sometimes when I get tired)

YAYSS...it was great. I might have to check into it again been kind of staying away from it for a day.(reread fic)

BOOKCLUB!!!!

I'm bummed I missed the chat. But yesterday was a really weird day for me, so, you know. Maybe something like this will happen again someday and I can participate.
ext_399013: (Frankie dresses up for breakfast)

We'll do another one, and I'll give more notice next time. It will probably not be 12 hours long though... Don't be bummed! Like Frankie in your icon, he looks bummed. *squeezes his cheeks*

[identity profile] mugsyface.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 06:42 pm (UTC)(link)
it was fun! we should do it again! sorry about being high and wasted, but we'd just come from a party lol. thanks everyone for the fic recs I did get, and now I'm gonna go join that comm so I can get more!

It was indeed fun! And you guys being all partied up and wasted just made it better, I needed to be more wasted. It was good to trade recs, and I think I'm gonna look forward to the weekly recs on the bookclub!

[identity profile] phelixstar.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I was so out of it when Meghan and I were on lol. So drunk! (I hardly ever get drunk too so that was fun. I remember some people I wanted to add to my flist though.

And omg this bookclub is SUCH a good idea! *joins and rolls around in the slash forever*

You guys were very entertaining! I hope you find everyone you're looking for. I kept note of people's AIM names and LJ names - I didn't want to post them publicly but if there is anyone in particular you're looking for and not sure of let me know.

and YAY BOOKCLUB!

[identity profile] phelixstar.livejournal.com 2010-07-21 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
I may hit you up later for some folks AIM's :)

Boooooookclub!

[identity profile] chuckaloonie.livejournal.com 2010-07-20 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know who I talked to! When I suggested you to make this post, I didn't consider the fact that:
a) LJ username and AIM username is usually not the same.
b) I wasn't going to be there the whole time, so I can't just add everybody on the list because some of them have no idea who I am.

I do remember Katy, who kept showing up whenever group sex was mentioned!

Bandom fic book club! God, you have the BEST IDEAS. *joins immediately*
ext_399013: (Geeway NME being respectable)

[identity profile] ladyfoxxx.livejournal.com 2010-07-20 12:48 pm (UTC)(link)
It's true that the AIM and LJ usernames are different - I kept note of who was who, but I didn't want to plaster people's AIM names up on a public post in case they don't want that. Hit me up privately if there is anyone you're not sure of.

Katy is [livejournal.com profile] barefoot_starz, she really did have a knack for showing up at exactly the right time!

ENJOY THE BOOK CLUB BB!

It was a crazy idea I had after too many mojitos to spend my free Sunday on AIM with like-minded slashy folk. I made a drunk post about it (http://ladyfoxxx.livejournal.com/26193.html). Anyway it happened, it was fun, we shall do it again... at some point! Watch this space.
