I know, signing up for this was a terrible idea, the chances of me completing anything are so small, but I couldn't resist. Could those of you who've also signed up leave a comment letting me know? I'm going to need support and commiseration, LOL.

I am super relieved that I didn't get too many crazy AU options (weird because I've written my share of AUs for sure.)

Oooh, I like your card :)

I got lots of aus and am somewhat intimidated by them :(

[wesleysgirl]

I find AUs really intimidating until I can come up with a semi-okay plan. I'm happy to help you brainstorm if you want! I think the first thing I'm going to do is try to come up with the top two or three bingo combos I'm most likely to manage.

[justhuman]

I love AUs when someone else writes them, lol.

Although, I am sorely tempted. Except the circus one. I *love* half of them on your card.

[justhuman]

I caved. I haven't gotten my card, but I'm looking forward to it... I think, lol.

Maybe it will inspire me to get a Kink Bingo in by combining stories.

I'm doing it! My card is here: http://green.dreamwidth.org/185465.html along with some ridiculous brainstorming on how I'm going to get a blackout on this sucker. :D

You are evil and I just signed up.

Ahahahaha, I signed up for this recently as well! I had the same thought as you signing up, that this is a long shot -- but why the hell not? We'll complete them, I say!

Also, I just posted your John/Sherlock, which turned out more gen than intended, but still! <3

I think I have to go back to the community LJ and create my own very-basic outline of how this even works, LOL. Like, how long the stories have to be, when/where you post them, etc. This is the first time I've paid any attention to fic-bingo (more than "yay, someone else is writing stories!") so I'm pretty clueless.

[entrenous88.livejournal.com]

Same! 500 words, I think? But I have to check again. Plus I keep looking at my card and trying to decide a pattern and then making myself overwhelmed and tabbing away. I am SUPER PRODUCTIVE, haha!

[spikewriter]

I signed up. I don't know what madness took me, but we'll see.

ETA: Funny, but I see at least one bingo on yours I have something for every square. I'm still struggling with some of mine.

[wesleysgirl.livejournal.com]

I'm crossing my fingers for all of us!

[bethynyc.livejournal.com]

I know you can do it!

[wesleysgirl.livejournal.com]

Thank you!!!

[bethynyc.livejournal.com]

Now I'm tempted to sign up. I love the accidental baby acquisition trope!

[wesleysgirl.livejournal.com]

Do itttt!!! Sign up!!!!

[bethynyc.livejournal.com]

done!

[wesleysgirl.livejournal.com]

Yay!!!! *Kermit arms*

[swmbo.livejournal.com]

I signed up yesterday! I am still waiting (eagerly/in trepidation) for my card, but am super excited. Man, I LOVE tropes.

[wesleysgirl.livejournal.com]

I'm nervous I'll never manage to write anything! Eeeek! Post when you get your card, I want to seeeeee!

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Ooh, me :) I signed up last week, and I've already got ideas for most of my squares :D

As an aside, I'm loving how many people have signed up for this one :D

[wesleysgirl.livejournal.com]

Yay! Have you done this bingo thing before? Am I right that we write a whole 5 "bingo's worth" of stories and then post about them all at once? I'm confused because it seemed like a couple of stories (but not 5) have already been posted on ao3...

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

I haven't done this one, but I've done other bingos before. You can post as you write, but you post them to the comm when you have a bingo. So, if you're going for the top line, you wait until you've written the five stories and then, once you've got them, you post to the comm with links to each of them as a 'bingo' :)

[wesleysgirl.livejournal.com]

Ohhhhh, okay! That makes sense. Thank you for explaining it. :-D
