Registration survey (aka getting to know each other)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Before we all meet (or meet again) at Sinpozium, we think it’d be great if we could all get to know each other a bit better (we're totally ripping off get__together). Plus it’ll help in planning, in terms of knowing popular fandoms etc. Feel free to skip not applicable points, of course.

Please reply in the comments to this post.

Preferred name/handle: what do you want people to call you?

Alternate usernames: if you have multiple journals/pseuds/handles

Location: Since this is an unlocked post, feel free to skip this or be vague, as you prefer.

Current main fandom(s): what fandom(s) are you actively involved in? Whether you determine that by what you’re reading more fic in, what are you watching, what are you most attached to currently?

Other signficant fandom(s): what are your past fandoms (whether you’ve broken up with them, drifted away, or just not spending as much time on) or otherwise significant fandoms for you?

What was your first fandom?: How did you get sucked into this crazy world?

Fanworks/fan activities: do you write, vid, create artwork, do recs, volunteer in fannish organisations?

Tell us something about yourself: what’s your favourite colour? who’s the best captain in Starfleet/your favourite Doctor? what’s the most unlikely fandom you’ve ever gotten involved in? have you ever accidentally stalked a celebrity?

Preferred name/handle: SQ

Alternate usernames: proteinscollide

Location: Sydney

Current main fandom(s) : White Collar, The Social Network FPS and RPS and I'm holding onto a section of bandom (mostly Pete Wentz, Panic! at the Disco, and The Academy Is... if they're still around). But I'm fairly multi-fannish in my reading and can be pimped into almost anything. :)

Other signficant fandom(s) : popslash, Harry Potter, Veronica Mars

What was your first fandom? : I discovered slash in Harry Potter via Lord of the Rings fanfiction on the TWOP boards, but thinking back I've been a little fangirl since I was six or seven and writing Mary Sue fic in my head for T-Bag (does anyone else remember this show?).

Fanworks/fan activities: I used to write more, but lately I read fic if I have time, sporadically rec, and mostly beta for littlerhymes.

Tell us something about yourself: I love puzzles and I really wish I was smart enough to actually help the FBI solve a cold case by breaking this code (http://www.fbi.gov/news/stories/2011/march/cryptanalysis_032911).

What's the Veronica Mars fandom like? I loved the show, but somehow never made it into the fandom. And I remember T-bag, I think - there was a boy and a girl, and they had to collect things throughout the season, like pearls or bits of a jar or something?

I was very much on the edges of Vmars fandom, unfortunately. Mostly I was in it for the vids, and for recaps and discussions off-LJ (on TWOP boards and the like). It died out a lot as the third season dragged on and people a) could see the end was nigh and b) were increasingly disappointed in the storylines.

Tbh, that is about as much as I remember from T-Bag, but I would love to rewatch it for the nostalgia value. :)
