Hey, thanks for holding the challenge! It was my first. XDDDD

Thanks for an awesome month!

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

Oooo, deflowered! You handled it like a pro. :) er, not that kind of "pro," sorry.

You're very welcome and thank you!

[klena.livejournal.com]

Oooo, deflowered! You handled it like a pro. :) er, not that kind of "pro," sorry.

XDDDD You know that's the way you really meant it. Go on, admit it! I can take it. ^_~

You are very welcome! Hold another one again soon! XDDDD

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Klena!

It was my first, too! (first time moding, first time exchanging, first time writing explicit A/C porn!)

Happy New Year!

[argyleheir.livejournal.com]

Yes, thanks for all your interest and effort!

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome, and we'd do it all again in a heartbeat. Just...you know...not next week or anything! ;)

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

You're most welcome!

[linnpuzzle.livejournal.com]

You were marvellous, and one couldn't have asked for better moderators. Thank you!

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

Aww. We gave it our best - this fandom deserves it. Thank you too!

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much, Linn!

[runcible.livejournal.com]

This was SO much fun. Thank YOU guys.

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome - we had a blast as well!

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

You're so welcome, Emjay!

Best Christmas Presents Ever! <3 Thanks to everyone who contributed, and thank you to the mods who took the time to organize and post everything up. It was all quite awesome.

Best Christmas Presents Ever!

I couldn't agree more! I have loved having so much Good Omens goodness all month.

[yummycoffee.livejournal.com]

Oh definitely! It was especially er, special to me since I had just gotten into the book in October of this year...along with catching up on all the old fandom happenings, it was nice to be there for this one (though I noticed the community too late to participate). The thing I love about this fandom is it's chalked full of so many talanted people- the writing is always a treat to read, and the artwork always makes me smile.

[takewing.livejournal.com]

I find myself wishing I had done more than read and review. Maybe next year. :)

Either way, it was a blast just watching the comm!

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm glad that you enjoyed it. You were such a dedicated reader & reviewer, too. Believe me, that goes a long way!

And definitely think about participating next year!

--Mary

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

Reading and reviewing is pretty vitally important to everyone, I should think! Your enthusiasm is VERY appreciated. :)

And we'll hold you to that next year.

[hydrogen2oxygen.livejournal.com]

I think I have this to thank for introducing me to GO. Someone rec'd a piece of art - goodness knows now if I can remember which, as they've all been good (as well as the stories)! - and I came over to read it, having never read the book before. I fell in love with the characters, and the next day I went out to get the book.

So, three 'thank you's in one - thanks to the mods for the community, to the contributors who posted the wonderful stories/art, and the entire crew for giving me a new fandom. XD

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

This is clearly the best kind of compliment! Welcome to the fandom!!!

I'm so glad that you enjoyed the Exchange.

--Mary

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

Wow. A high compliment indeed...(as the band strikes up Tchaikovsky's "Another One Bites the Dust"). See? This IS a public service! :D

Welcome, and yes, that IS the best icon ever!

[beetle-breath.livejournal.com]

And thanks for putting up with the trouble I caused. Heh heh. >_>

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

Trouble is relative, my dear, very relative. ;)

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

what trouble? if it isn't on fandom_wank, it isn't trouble, is it?

xoxoMary

[beetle-breath.livejournal.com]

No, not that kind of trouble.

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

YOu are so, so welcome! and thank YOU for taking the plunge and participating!

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

You're so welcome, Janice! I'm so glad that you participated with your delicious Crowley/Pollution/Bentley fic.

xoxoM

[dwightsredshoes.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much for putting this together, guys! You're absolutely amazing and I had a blast all month. :D

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

You're SO welcome, and thank you a million - you did double duty, and we won't forget that!

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! Your art was so wonderful! And thanks again for taking on A/C even though it's not exactly your cup of tea.

xoxoMary

[empy.livejournal.com]

And thank you for pulling the threads! December was one long fest of GO fic and art thanks to you two. :)

♥!

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

You are so, so welcome - that was the biggest joy of it, really, seeing this steady stream of really high-quality work come together and stay together. Every gift was for everyone, really. :)

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Empy! Glad that you enjoyed!
