We had an amazing set of authors and artists sign-up for the hd_worldcup. In the end, no vidders signed up so we had to redo the numbers for each of the positions. I'm thinking it's an awesome thing as there's another artist position and art is love <3.

The 2009 Teams! There's some amazing quality right there. New and returning people, new and well-known names. I'm very excited for this round! I was a bit worried there for a bit that we wouldn't have enough sign-ups but some awesome pimping by flist members (yes, I credit all of you) and at some awesome communities really got the ball rolling. <3 you all!

The only bit that annoys me with HDC is that I keep getting asked if I write H/D (and poor accioscar can attest to the look I get on my face when people ask me this. It's sort of twisted up and stuffs :P). I DO! I HAVE! Just, um, not really since DH. My Memories have my fic in it. Though, um, ignore Voice in the Dark. It's bad an abandoned WIP. And the hd_365 won't make much sense unless you read the comm as so much of it is based on the comm as a whole.

My 7 fave H/D I've written in no specific order are:
Moments
White
Dandelions and Dreams
Moments of Truth Between the Lies
The Latin Trilogy (Deprecor, Experior, Insequor).
One Last Fare (One Last Fare, Dreaming in Madrid and A Long Overdue Conversation)
and A Good Book (see? I've even participated in H/D Centric Fests!)

Most of them aren't happy (and only one of them is DH compliant) but I don't think I write 'happy' well. Some of them aren't the strongest writing as I've matured since then. But they all have a special place in my heart. So, see? I do write H/D. I have about 4 started... I just haven't finished any of them. /defence of my H/D involvement.

So what are you guys most looking forward to at hd_worldcup? What's your favourite piece from last year? What team are you cheering on?

ETA: GreatestJournal is back up until January 30th if you guys need it. Not sure if some of you were aware but I remember reading a few posts about lost rpgs.

There were two fics from last year are sticking out in my mind:
sansa1970's Lamp in the Cooling Room. GAH! I cry every time I read it. It was masterful and I loved it.
The other I fail at because I can't remember who wrote it nor can I remember the exact title but I think it might have been from team fanon and it's the story told in several different ways going reverse in time but it always ends with Draco and Harry shagging. I should really go back and find out what the fic is called. *sucks for not knowing* ETA: "What Could Have Been (And What Was)" that was the story and I loved it. Now I can suck less.

I am cheering for team Epilogue a little bit because they have a lot to get around to keep their stories 100% to canon. You know me, I will totally know if they didn't! Also I think trubbleclef is on EWE and since I love her I have to cheer for her too. Sorry team AU, good luck though!

LOL I totally forgot you are on team AU! I am of course pulling for you and know you will do a brilliant job! Which team is which doesn't matter a lot to me, I don't vote based on the genre I vote on whether the work is good or not.
