Dec. 26th, 2004 @ 11:53 pm Christmas Challenge Wrapup
Current Mood: surprised
Congratulations [info]contradictions!!!! You were the only person to get all 20 Christmas songs absolutely correct! You have your choice of either a hand-made crocheted scarf, or a $5.00 Amazon gift certificate.

The comments have been unscreened now, so everyone can see how they did. I was going to do this last night, but predictably, I was too pooped/busy to do so.

We have several ties for second place! [info]phoebesmum, [info]shudder2think and [info]cruisedirector each got 19 out of 20. You will each get a ficlet or story of at least 1000 words and you get to pick the fandom and pairing.

And in third place we have [info]stumphed, and [info]zjman. You will get a drabble/ficlet of no more than 500 words in a fandom/pairing of your choosing.

For the people requesting fic, my fandoms are: PotC, LotR, CSI, Harry Potter, The West Wing, Sports Night, OUATIM, and RPS limited to Johnny Depp movies and LotR.

Now for the record the correct answers were:

#1: Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
#2: Silent Night
#3: O Little Town of Bethlehem
#4: Good King Wenceslas (spelling did NOT count)
#5: Joy to the World
#6: Hark, the Herald Angels Sing
#7: We Three Kings
#8: Away in a Manger
#9: Angels we Have Heard on High
#10: O Come All Ye Faithful
#11: O Holy Night
#12: I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas (White Christmas was also acceptable)
#13: The 12 Days of Christmas
#14: It Came Upon a Midnight Clear
#15: Frosty the Snowman
#16: All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth
#17: I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
#18: Walking in a Winter Wonderland
#19: Deck the Halls
#20: Silver Bells (This is the one that tripped almost everyone up. A lot of you got the bells part, but the TIN was the key!)

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and I will do a longer post about my fabulous holiday later.

Seeing Phantom with Mom tomorrow! Eeeeee, can't wait! Ciao!

Wouldn't silver bells be argent tintinnabuli?

If I were the one designing the quiz, yeah, it would have been that. But some people got it regardless :D What kind of fic would you like?

I have actually never heard of "Good King Wenceslas". Hmm. Obviously, I am missing something, because everyone else had, lol.

People who have both Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany on their interest lists should be required to put them on their potential RPS list.

*whistles absolutely innocently*

Do you take pairing requests for HP? *g*

LOL! I have Russel Crowe and Paul Bettany on my interest list because of you and all the Jack/Stephen you've written. I don't think I could do them justice.

And yes, I will take a pairing request for HP :D

But I wrote Jack/Stephen...[info]karelian is the one who wrote Russell/Paul. *veg*

Okay, if you take requests, though feel free to tell me if this request is impossible for you because I know all too well how that can happen...

I want happy Lupin/Snape or happy Lupin/Black...not necessarily fluffy or angst-free, but HAPPY. (If you can manage happy Lupin/Snape/Black, I will grovel and pimp you everywhere. And if you want to make me the happiest person in fandom, you could write me Lupin/Snape from dead!Sirius' POV and have HIM happy too, heh...)

And so you don't get bored feel free to include any and all kinks you want, except flogging or anything you know to be too extreme for me. *G*

*hugs*

Oooh... happy Lupin/Snape from dead!Sirus POV... I think I might actually be able to do that. The bunnies are hopping about anyway. We'll see what they come up with in the end.

Your fic is up... Snupin from ghost!Sirius POV, and happiness all around. It's not quite as good as I hoped it would be, so if you're unhappy with it, please let me know and I will write you something else. Cheers!
