Chromatic Yuletide 2010 Nominations!

If you have nominated one or more fandoms that qualify for our challenge, please list them here! If you would like to brainstorm, urge other people to nominate something you might not have had a slot for, or discuss other aspects of nominations, this is the space to do it.

Do remember that the closer we get to 25th December 2010, the harder it will be for people to learn a new source canon - so this is the best time to try to woo a potential writer over into a TV series or epic 6 volume book canon.

How to Nominate
The nomination form

Nominations close Wednesday, 20th October at 8:59 pm US Eastern time.

Addendum:

With the help of [personal profile] dharmavati, [personal profile] eruthros, and [personal profile] thingswithwings, to whom we owe many thanks, we've been compiling nominated fandoms with chromatic creators and characters from your comments, the Yuletide Nominated Fandoms List, and the Yuletide Characters List in the Chromatic Yuletide 2010 Nominations List spreadsheet (html version).

We've been following titling and tagging conventions from [livejournal.com profile] yuletide and AO3 and will need help adding and verifying information, so if you have time and energy to spare, we would appreciate your assistance! The spreadsheet is set so anyone (no Google account needed) can edit, and Google Docs is designed so multiple editors can work on a document simultaneously and all their edits will update. We're currently working through the Yuletide Nominated Fandoms list, and you can check our status under Progress. We have also included a Color Key to explain the highlighted cells.

We're also maintaining a list of Chromatic Yuletide Fandom Promotion Posts here.

I think it's referring to the master character list here: http://yuletidetreasure.org/nominations/charlist.txt. That list has nothing to do with what's been nominated so far, though - it's the list of all fandoms that have ever been nominated at Yuletide, and the characters in each fandom. I don't think it's dynamically updated, but don't know for sure. So, the deal is, if you nominate a fandom that's been nominated before, it will automatically populate with the characters that have been nominated before. So you can check that list for the characters you want, and if a fandom that's been nominated before has been nominated again this year, you can be relatively sure that the characters that were nominated before are nominated again.

However, if you're worried about Character A being nominated, the safest thing to do is still to nominate the fandom and character yourself, since there are several points of potential failure within this process.

I hope that made at least a little sense!

Yes, thank you! That list is what I was looking for.
