Fic Rush: the two-day ficathon

Tell us all what you accomplished this round!  If possible, tell the truth, although if you tell a whopper, at least make it an interesting one and include one or more explosions.

As always, please take a moment to thank the Mod Squad.  In spite of being short-handed, we actually got through the entire round without losing a single hour!  In addition to our stalwarts dbskyler, a_phoenixdragon, juliet316, xandromedovna, lothithil, idlewild_, and myself, lolmac, we had a Special Guest Appearance by lost_spook, the thrilling debut performance of ylla, and an extra-special unannounced guest appearance of our very own founder, studyofrunning.

Many many thanks to all, but especially to ylla, who covered the largest stretches of both Holes in Tyme, in her very first appearance as an Emergency Stunt Mod. She and lost_spook handled the really difficult hours when there often isn’t anyone commenting. Cheers and kudos!!

Keep an eye on the comm for the poll for the May round!

Let's play Find The Error!!  We have two holes in the schedule, which I hope will inspire either epic usurpation or possibly some arm-wrestling.

( Ye Schedule . . . )

Well, um, so here we are, fic_rush is about to start, and my internets are all broke.  I think there are too many cats, or too few.

With luck, I will have internet access again some time tomorrow morning.  Until then, your Queen Mod is stranded on a desert island, or possibly locked up incommunicado.  Really, folks, that's taking the usurpation imperative a bit far, donchathink?

I had intended to declare this the Terry Pratchett Memorial Round (for those of you who have not yet read any Terry Pratchett and will have to remember things that haven't happened yet, don't worry, that works too).  So, in my absence, please carry on?

(And how am I posting this, some smartass is sure to say?  I'm still at work.  I do not plan to stay here all night.)

Round 62 is this weekend!  Can you find the error in the schedule?

( there's always at least one )

I'm deeply sorry to have to announce that we have lost our Pollmeister, the wonderful sara_lakali:  she sent me a PM that she was going to have to drop out altogether due to RL issues.  I'm particularly sorry because her journal seems to be gone entirely, making it very hard to let her know how much we'll miss her!

Sara, many many MANY thanks for your help, and I really hope we'll see you again and that RL treats you well!

Now, the monthly installment of Find Beth's Scheduling Error!

( Go for it! )

As often happens, the Round 61 poll (posted promptly by sara_lakali and not overlooked by your truly this time) has left us in a near-tie.  So, here's your last chance to sway the vote for the February round.  Choose any or all!  If both weekends work for you, tick off both.
