Remix sign ups are open but I haven't written fics in ANY of the qualifying fandoms and certainly not the required amount. I could have sworn that both Avatar and Naruto were on the list, but I guess not.
I find it bizarre that they've excluded fandoms like Naruto and Avatar, but have included elderly anime fandoms like Weiss Kreuz which aren't nearly as active. Maybe the people who run this thing are clueless about the cartoony side of fandom.
It's a shame. I was thinking of signing up to remix an Avatar fic, for nostalgia's sake.
*grins* Spamming up poor Red's journal here, but consider posting a polite comment to the signup entry? If enough writers go HI WE'D LOVE TO DO THIS BUT, and mention the same fandoms, they'd be a bit daft not to add a fandom or two. After all, the point of the qualifying fandoms is to make sure you can find other authors in at least one common fandom, isn't it? :)
I definitely think there's some self-selecting going on - where it's not advertised anywhere, so it ends up not really reflecting the straight popularity on the fandoms as a whole, but the popularity of the fandoms within the group that already knows about remix.
*nods*
Yeah, it would have been awesome. I was really curious to see what someone else would do with my work.
