Yuletide indecision
I have enjoyed Yuletide every time I've done it, but I'm just not feeling the Yuletide spirit this year. I am especially depressed about the fact that no one seems to be sharing my fandoms. I know, it's silly to moan about the smallness of your fandom for a small fandom exchange, but here we are.
First, of the three fandoms I nominated, the only characters in the tag set are the characters I nominated. So either everyone else agrees with me that these are the best characters, or I am the only one who nominated them. Given the fandoms and characters in question, I am pretty sure the answer is me sitting here in the corner by myself. *clutches DVDs tightly*
But, well, nomination is just the first step, right? Surely other people will want to request and offer these fandoms! Except, not so much. That list of requested / offered fandoms is fun, but also extremely depressing. The number of people who have requested the fandoms I nominated is exactly zero, for all three fandoms.
But never mind the nominations -- what about the fandoms I plan on offering? I sat down with the tag set and came up with four fandoms to offer, then looked at that list again. Out of my four fandoms, want to know how many people I potentially match with? One. As in, one person, not one fandom. ONE PERSON.
I know people are still signing up, but at this point I'm just feeling, why bother? I should just write a treat for that one person and call it a season.
Oh, and most of the fandoms I want to request aren't on the list either, although I realize that people may be offering them, and they're just not showing up because no one has requested them. But I'm definitely feeling the lack of love for my fandoms. And I didn't think they were that obscure, either. Well, except for Quark. That one I'll admit is fairly obscure. But it's a sci-fi comedy with Richard Benjamin, which automatically renders it awesome.

Do sign up though! The world needs more Gita fic! I haven't been able to find a source of the SJA which makes me very sad. The only access I have to it now is via fic.

But as my flist is overwhelmingly of the opinion that I should Yuletide, I think I'll have to acquiesce.
