get_togetherWelcome, one and all. It's time to register for g/t 2018. Hopefully a speedy and streamlined process, though with one important addition this year.
1) As with last year, please just make a top level comment to this post rather than an individual post to the community. If you kept your livejournal you can comment logged in, if you've got a dreamwidth you can use open id (but include your lj name if there's any chance I won't recognise it), if you have neither, or you prefer not to log in for any reason, then anon commenting is fine, but please include a pseudonymous tag so I can tell who it is.
2) It's pizza party time! Well, not really, but in the interests of avoiding hell on earth over the phone Saturday night (you see what I did there) I am going to order and pay in advance, on Friday 5 October. In the morning, before I go to brunch. That means there's going to be a hard cut off for registrations and subs this year! No retroactive signups. Not that I'm looking at any perpetual latecomers in particular. You can edit your order between now and then, obviously, but when I call a hard close I'm gonna mean it. :D
Please go directly to hell, I mean visit the Hell Pizza website and check out the menu. Please also make a note of the price of your order. Don't worry about factoring in delivery, I'll sort that out. Can I please suggest that you try to order off the menu if you can, as things start to go awry if there are too many substitutions on a giant order. If you have allergies/intolerances please all caps or bold those so I can make those absolutely clear when I go in.
3) If you didn't do it last year, can you please fill out this google form with contact details (confidential). If you don't want to include a cell number you don't have to, but especially if you don't have a twitter account I can ping it might be useful to be able to text in case of short notice issues.
Registration Template 2018
Try to pick ONE answer, maybe two, if you can, not your entire fannish history. And don't overthink some of the questions. Treat it like word association. It's only for a couple of games on the day.
First Fandom and/or OTP:
Is there a fandom you didn't know was a fandom when you were tiny, but it totally was?
Current Top Fandom and/or OTP:
One True Undying, Always Returning, Forever Fandom and/or OTP:
Favourite Trope:
Most Hated Trope:
Three Characters That Represent You In Some Way (no explanations, let us figure it out):
If Only One Fic Survived the Apocalypse It Would Be:
More crudites, more chips, or more biscuits?
Hummus or sour cream dips?
Coke or juice?
I said coke and my preferred version is:
I said juice and I prefer apple/orange/other:
I drink water, I'm not a barbarian like you.
Coffee or tea?
Whole fat, half, or trim milk?
My Hell order is (please bold or all caps any allergies/intolerances):
It costs this much, which I will add to my subs when that post goes up:
I haven't worked out my Hell order yet but I was super keen to sign up anyway, and I will totally comment to this comment with an update very soon, and you have my permission to heckle when I don't.
I'm going to bring my own dinner and take my chances on the kitchen.

Is there a fandom you didn't know was a fandom when you were tiny, but it totally was?
Starsky and Hutch I guess. I knew about Star Trek and SF fandom in general even if I was very much on the fringes for it, but that there was an actual fandom for Starsky and Hutch and zines and fanfic etc? Not until I got on the internet.
Current Top Fandom and/or OTP:
The Sentinel and Jim and Blair, bless 'em, but I'm having fun reading Garak/Bashir as a palate cleanser.

See J/B above. Also Starsky/Hutch, Kirk/Spock. I'm an old fangirl of simple and traditional tastes.

Neither thanks
Coke or juice?
