Okay, who is/are the overachiever(s) that already uploaded three fics to the Yuletide collection? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, PEOPLE, ASSIGNMENTS WENT OUT A FEW HOURS AGO.

I hang out in the #yuletide channel, and since folks were posting their letters, people had already started writing treats. If you happened to have picked out a person to write a treat for who turned out to be a match…
(As for me, I’m not starting until I do a canon review).
It doesn’t even have to be your assigned recipient. I figured some people had started writing early, but still. 😛
I suspect people started writing treats as soon as the spreadsheet went live.
That’s my guess, too.
Wow…I’m fast, but I’ve never been that fast. I was going to start source review today. (Thankfully, this year I only signed up for quickly-reviewable sources as my time may be limited.)
As said above, people probably started writing those even before they got their assignments, just based on letters.
Probably the same people who snatch pinch-hit assignments so quickly that there’s no point in watching the list except in real-time.
Maybe I’ll just check the DYW post for something promising and write a treat instead…
Heh. Yeah, pinch hits go scary fast! Though I did manage to snag one last year.
Since you can edit right up to the deadline, I suspect that those may be very, very, very rough drafts.
That being said, I was so thrilled with my assignment that I started writing a bit of it last night.
That’s possible, too. (I mostly figured people started writing treats early.)
