Sunday Ramble

[wook77]

Am at work. On a Sunday. I'm supposed to be working on payroll but I'm sort of over that, in a way. I just do not want to look at another spreadsheet right now.

My brain hurts from going over the slashfest spreadsheet as there are so many things that are not on it and are on the claiming posts. So, I'm going through and cleaning that up. I went through 40 requests and it took me an hour. Only another 410 outstanding requests to go. *false excitement*

Then, when I was checking to see who was a member and who wasn't, I noticed that the memories were only at like 300 memories and I thought for sure that couldn't be right. So, I went through a couple of posts and I noticed that nothing from the past 2.5 rounds had been entered into the memories. UGH. Two hours later, the memories are now up to date through the last 2.5 rounds. But as I was doing that, I wondered if slashfest should also go to a tagging system in addition to the memories. IDK, though. It's going to be a lot of work that I do not have time to do right now.

What do you guys think? Tag it or no? Anyone want to help? I'm thinking only tag by fandom. (ie - Fandom: Harry Potter)

I'm in love with my yuletide entry and can only hope that my recipient will love it half as much as I do.

Tags would be really helpful, yup. :) Would you only tag the recent entries, or all entries? :)

If you need help, I could spare an hour or two to help you with that. :)

I might be able to help with tagging. It doesn't take long..it's just daunting because of the number of entries.

;)

OOOH YES PLEASE!!! YAYES!!!

I'd love you forever and ever for it! It's just OMG daunting.

I've added every fandom I could find from the memories and the spreadsheet of doom. sulky_rhino is going to help, as well.

What do I need to do to help?
Do I have to have special priveleges?
Do I need the Spreadsheet of Doom?
Should we take different months/years/rounds so as not to waste anyone's time?

Let me know :)
p.s. I won't be able to start until after Thanksgiving though ;).

[wook77.livejournal.com]

No special privileges needed. I have it set up so anyone can tag an entry right now, or at least, that's what it's supposed to do.

Spreadsheet of doom shouldn't be needed.

Just start from the beginning and start tagging, methinks :D. And after thanksgiving is fine, trust me, it's way fine :D:D:D

Ok, if you could start with the earliest ones and tag with fandom and round (ie, "Fandom: Harry Potter" and "Round V"). The tags should be created for all the fandoms needed.

I appreciate the help!!!

Most excellent!!!

<--the librarian in her is thrilled with the project! :D

:) Hi,

I'm working on this and have a question.

There are some pairings listed in the tags list--do you want me to include pairings?

[wook77.livejournal.com]

Oh sure! That would be awesome! Thanks ♥

Also - I'm still trying to formulate a response that doesn't sound like OMGILUSOMUCHASKFASLKDFJASLKDFJALKSJF

[libgirl.livejournal.com]

LOVE!!!!!!

Okay..I can do that. :)

I've had to add some tags already because "round i" wasn't an option and I don't know what fandom this is.

[wook77.livejournal.com]

Fandom: Branion Series (Fiona Patton)

oh and no round I? Really? *fails at making of the tags*

[libgirl.livejournal.com]

No worries at all!

I'm memorying the ones I'm unsure of and I'll just email you the links.

Other than that, I think I'm going to finish round i today.

The thing with the pairings is I can't put first last names on them b/c in some fandoms I'm clueless so I'm using what the author has supplied in the first instance and matching the others to that. It's not exactly standard (which is killing the librarian in me) but the people in the fandom shouldn't really have too much trouble finding what they want. :D

Round I is complete ;)

These are the fandoms that I either don't know or don't know how to enter:

One

Two

Three

Four.

I fixed the other one already.

Happy Saturday! :D

[libgirl.livejournal.com]

Actually, apparently I'm obsessive-compulsive (that I actually knew already) and Round II is now also complete. A couple there at the end had already been tagged, but without pairing so I added that as well.

I didn't know these:

one

two

Totally random post

Hello there! This is busaikko from rs_small_gifts. As far as I know, your prompt has not been claimed yet (please let me know if I have this wrong--spreadsheets will be the death of me...). I'd like to call your attention to aclytie's request to translate for her small gift. If you have a *short* story, poem, drabble, etc. that you would like to have translated, would you be so kind as to leave her a comment with a link to your work, or discuss it with her? This is going to be on a first-come basis, and I'm writing to all the as-yet-unclaimed, so! Would any of you be interested? (And yes, I haven't claimed anyone yet: am deadbeat, but am disguising it as nobility *nods* Ne'er fear!) love love, busaikko (busaikkobaby@yahoo.com)

Tag, tag might be cool. Just because tags are nice.
