Rectober Poll Take 2 - because birds is a dork

[birdsofshore]

I totally cocked up yesterday's poll, and then managed to delete it while I was fixing it. SO SORRY!

If you filled it out yesterday and can be bothered to do it again, that would be wonderful. I cross my heart I will not fiddle with it this time.

If you don't know what Rectober is, try here for info about last year's fest. It got quite big in the end and recs were flying fast and furious! \o/


[Poll #1978233]

Thank you all very much indeed. ♥

Rectober was so much fun last year and I would definitely take part again <3

[birdsofshore]

\o/

I'm so glad! People seem generally interested.

as I said before I suck at reccing *yes, I've done it - but not often*

But I'm always looking for a place to find recs and why it was liked. ♥

[birdsofshore]

That's great - there is no obligation to rec - just spread appreciation for the humble art of reccing.

Thank you!

I appreciate the "Whenever the fancy takes me" option, just because I would LOVE to participate actively, but I'm uncertain I'll be able to, much like last year.

So... I'm hoping to maybe try a little bit. Maybe.

*eyes her WIP list*

[birdsofshore]

As we said last year, even one rec during the month would be a win for Rectober. If we run it, everyone should just take part how it suits them.

I'm glad you're planning to write fabulous things ;-) We can but try... :DD

[eidheann_writes]

Well, two of my WIP are Career Fair and Glomp, so I'm well within the window (I think! -- I remember due dates not posting schedules XD)

Now to figure out how to pull off the "fabulous" part ;)

[birdsofshore]

Ah, you can manage that bit quite easily, I am sure ;-)

[barefacedbandit.livejournal.com]

I wasn't here last year to do it, but I'm all for getting involved this year, it sounds fab :D

[birdsofshore]

Oh, yay, it seems like we easily have enough people interested this year to go for it.

Thanks for your suuport!

By writing / drawing such fabulous things that other people are FORCED to rec them

That made me LOL! And then I checked it. ;-) \o/

[birdsofshore]

;-)

Me too. We have to TRY, yes?

[sara-lakali.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure I have any recs left in me. I don't see the point in rec'ing things that already have great exposure and loads of comments/kudos, and my reading tastes are pretty specific.

Plus my flist is so small, I'm not sure how much good a rec from me will do.

I will gladly pimp Rectoberfest, however, because I feel it's a good thing.

[birdsofshore]

Ah, I'm sorry you feel that way, but, certainly, if there seems no point / enjoyment in reccing, then don't do it out of duty!

Your support is much appreciated, thank you.

[writcraft]

Ha ha! I ticked By writing / drawing such fabulous things that other people are FORCED to rec them as well as a bunch of others, but the way you phrased that makes me feel very arrogant indeed!!! :D

I will write in the hope that something is fabulous ;-)

Definitely keen to see this happen again, it was a great initiative.

[birdsofshore]

Nothing wrong with a little bit of comedy arrogance ;-)

We can all TRY to be fabulous, yes?

Thank you for your support!

I am the world's worst commenter, never mind reccer, but yes, I shall take part somehow, because all that stress of having to do your poll twice deserves some reciprocal effort on my part :-D

[birdsofshore]

Haha! So because I am a dork, you're obliged to do what I ask?

I like this logic :DD

Thanks for your support!

[playing-perfect.livejournal.com]

Nope, because I never do enough to support the fandom/pairing I love so much and you do loads. And you bravely facing the poll monster to bring us that post (twice) inspires me at least enough to do some recs 'when the fancy takes me' :-D Which will of course be more than once. Can we rec old fics too?

[capitu]

Only now I'm catching up. lol

I wanna rec all the time!!!!
