Chromatic Yuletide 2010 Nominations: spreadsheet & masterlist of promotion posts

[dark_administrator]

With the help of dharmavati, eruthros, and 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 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.

Speaking of nominated fandoms, as we've said before, the closer we get to 25th December 2010, the harder it will be for people to learn a new source canon so we encourage you to continue promoting your Yuletide chromatic creator or character fandoms. For the purposes of the Chromatic Yuletide 2010 Challenge, promotion posts may consist of picspams, meta/essays, character discussions, or some combination thereof, and we will be collecting links in the masterlist below.

The following list includes posts promoting chromatic sources and characters from this year and past years; parentheticals are mod notes.

We will do our best to keep this list up to date, but there are more links at the Chromatic Yuletide 2010 Nominations post so be sure to check back there.

Lastly, are there icon makers reading? This is where we shamelessly beg for you to make us a general dark_agenda icon and a Chromatic Yuletide Challenge one.

[true_statement]

I (ahem) almost hesitate to mention it, but The Human Centipede movie stars Japanese actor Akihiro Kitamura as Katsuro, the head of the centipede. He's rather awesome.

[liviapenn]

Thuviaptarth also just made a post about Black Rose Alice.

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the link! We've added it to the list.

[aris_tgd]

Awesome, thanks!

This may have gotten lost on the noms post, but I also did a The Good The Bad The Weird picspam. It's short on plot and long on... pretty mans.

[nextian]

THAT MOVIE IS THE BEST. Omfg.

[dark_administrator]

Oops! Thank you for letting us know! We've added it to the list.

[nextian]

Added Gokusen, manga + tv, and a link to bookelfe's Gokusen manga promo post, with picspam.

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the link! We've added it to the list.

[snowynight]

The Legend (2007 TV) is a South Korean historical fantasy drama. There are two pimping post from last year. pimping post 1 and
piming post 2

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the links! They've been added to the list.

[anenko]

How does dark_agenda feel about sharing download links? IIRC the Yuletide comm frowns on it, so I thought I'd ask before jumping in with links.

[dhobikikutti]

Mentioning you have access to a source and directing people to a link off the comm - at a personal journal for instance, is fine.
Let's keep direct links off the comm, please, since we don't want to risk getting negative attention.

[anenko]

Cool with me :)

Thanks for the quick response!

[littlebutfierce]

I wrote a K-ON! promo post here.

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the link! We've added it to the list.

[littlebutfierce]

Thank you! And thank you for keeping the list; it's super useful!

[jadelennox]

what constitutes a promotion? I can't make picspams for monochromatic sources (all books), but I wrote up a paragraph about each of them in an attempt to pimo at my post "Yuletide":

Louise Erdrich - Birchbark House series
Adam Rex - The True Meaning of Smekday
Dia Reeves - Bleeding Violet
Nnedi Okorafor - Ginen books

[dark_administrator]

For the purposes of the Chromatic Yuletide 2010 Challenge, promotion posts may consist of picspams, meta/essays, character discussions, or some combination thereof. Your post doesn't quite fit the criteria we've set for this masterlist, but since we will be collecting Dear Yulegoat letters after the eligible fandoms have been determined, we may include it there as extra fandom information. Thank you for the link!

[plazmah]

Icon maker in the house! I’ll put something together by the end of the day. :)

[dark_administrator]

Awesome, thank you so much!

[plazmah]

Hope this is adequate...

[inkstone]

I skimmed the nominations list & I have a few posts for some of the fandoms:

Claymore (chromatic source, I realize with the way the world's set up, everyone ends up blond and blue-eyed due to outside influences, so I'm not sure this would qualify for the challenge...)
Shin Angyo Onshi
Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin (this is a picspam more than anything though)

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the links! We've added them to the list.

[trascendenza]

Awhile back I did a picspam with links to overviews for one of my nominations, Spider Lilies aka Cì Qīng/刺青, a film set in Taiwan by a Taiwanese director.

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the link! We've added it to the list, along with your picspam of My Name Is Kim Sam Soon.

[aldanise]

Since you've got two of her posts linked already, darkeyedwolf also has rec/review posts for BOSS, Long Love Letter, Hua Mulan, Powerful Opponents, Galileo, Hana Yori Dango (tv drama only), Buzzer Beat, Capital Scandal, and Painter of the Wind. She's hilarious, often irreverent, and obviously loves the genre(s).

Also, obsessive24 has a spectacular if spoilery vid for Red Cliff that essentially got me to watch the movies.

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the links -- they have been added to the list!

[snowynight]

I made a brief (not dial up friendly) overview about Yakushiji Ryōko no Kaiki Jikenbo

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the link! It has been added to the list

[lastwingedthing]

I made a quick pimping post for Take Care of My Cat (overview and picspam) here.

Thanks so much for what you guys are doing here, by the way. It's an amazing resource, and I'm really grateful for all the time everyone's putting into it. :)

[dark_administrator]

<3 Thank you for the link! It has been added to the list.

[springgreen]

Here is mine for Jay Chou - "Qing Hua Ci" music video:
http://springgreen.dreamwidth.org/29068.html

Yaaaaay thank you guys so much for your hard work!

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the link! We've added it to the list.

[marina]

Hey, I made a picspam/recpost of Hua Mulan and also of East West 101.

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the links! We've added them to the list. &hearts

[snowynight]

quillori post a fandom pitch post about Pu Songling - Liaozhai Zhiyi here.

[dark_administrator]

Thanks for the link! We've added it to the list.

[springgreen]

Pimping post for Lonesome Eden: http://springgreen.dreamwidth.org/29436.html

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the link! Your post doesn't quite fit the criteria we've set for this masterlist, but you may want to drop it in the comments of this (members-locked) resource post.

[livrelibre]

I did a (spoilery) review of the 2007 Lebanese film Caramel.

[dark_administrator]

Thank you for the link! We've added it to the list.

[vanitashaze]

No Runaways or Young Avengers? What? This must be dealt with soon.

[kalachi]

I made a post about Chupke Chupke (1975)! A short summary of the film and two songs :)
