Since the filter only shows the fandoms for the first 1000 stories, how can we filter/find the others since there are over 2000 stories in the challenge?

St. Nicholas, the 4th century Christian saint who influenced so many Christmas traditions, is thought to have lived and died in Myra, Turkey. His remains were removed to Bari in southern Italy in the 11th century. Now Turkish officials would like to see Nicholas' basilica restored.

I have a question about how the fandoms appear in the new archive.

The story I received is for the movie Green Street Hooligans (and it's completely awesome), but for some reason in the header it's titled Hooligans (Green Street)(2005) while in the list of fandoms for Yuletide 2009 it shows up as Green Street (2005) and in the fandom selection process it was called Green Street Hooligans. Shouldn't the title be consistent across the Yuletide archive? All of them are titles for the movie in different locations (with possible multiple titles in the UK), but it's a bit confusing and I may have missed the story if it hadn't been for me.

Is there a way to make the title consistent between the various pages? Is this something I should be emailing the mods about, or is it an issue for AO3 wranglers?

Thanks!

Merry Christmas! I may not really be feeling it this year (wah wah, etc.) but I hope you guys have a great holiday! If you don't celebrate it, then have a good Friday!

more original sketches, and a meme )

If I can manage to draw holiday fanart, I'll post that later. :9 (I'm still overdue on a P3 writeup, but if you read my twitter, you know what I'm going to say.)

Fandom: ENTOURAGE
Pairing: Eric/Michael Phelps
Length: 923 wds
Author on LJ:[info]dancinbutterfly
Author Website:None
Why this must be read: Originally written for Oxoniensis porn battle this is hot,hot,hot! But it's also edged with angst on Eric's part and a desire to get his power back. The fact that he can partly do that by screwing Michael Phelps into the mattress is just a lovely bonus.

“He says he’ll try and means it because the guy’s got a bit of a goofy face but under his button down shirt is a body he wants to see naked. But he doesn’t think it’ll happen.”

Fandom: LORD PETER WIMSEY
Pairing: Peter/alien
Length: 920
Author: [info]nineveh_uk
Author Website: See the wimseyfic tag on her LJ
Why this must be read:


The title given is actually the title of the journal entry, as the fic itself is – probably for the excellent reason that it needs no title – nameless. For this is the one and only Wimsey mpreg fic in existence, brought to you as a special treat for Christmas Day. Mpreg definitely falls into the "more than" category of fanfic – any story using this trope is manifestly not attempting to fill in the gaps in canon, continue canon, or otherwise have anything more than the kind of relationship to canon that Lord Peter has to the disreputable Death Bredon. And yet even crack requires skill at both style and characterisation, since the pleasure derives from seeing how so wildly inappropriate a narrative element can be treated in a convincingly Wimseyish fashion. This story pulls off both a terrific Sayers narrative voice, and spot-on characterisation – because of course if Lord Peter were to find himself pregnant after having sex with an alien in a dubious Viennese night club, this is how he would react. As a bonus for the thoroughly depraved, there is a Bunter mpreg version here.

‘I confess, my lord, that the possibility of such an explanation for your lordship’s recent condition had not occurred to me.’

‘You don’t think anyone else suspects?’

‘I believe that would be most unlikely, my lord.’

‘I’m glad to hear that at least.’

It was against all his principles, but Bunter was still feeling rather weak. ‘My lord, if I may be permitted… My lord, how?’

‘I’ve been pondering that one myself. My only conclusion is that it is the result of one of the more continental evenings of our recent European journey.’

‘Vienna, my lord?’ suggested Bunter, in tones that perfectly modulated understanding and a merest whiff of manly sympathy.
