Honestly? I was thrilled when we hit 20 sign ups. So 109 Hos later and I've finally stopped the flail. It's, like, seismic. o_0 And we don't end sign ups for another 10-ish hours. Seriously. How are you so awesome?

Thank you so much to all the Hos who've come back to sell out again, it's really incredible to see how many names come up again and again and I almost never get to actually thank people properly but familiar faces (ok, fine, icons) are fantabulous to see.

And hi, new Hos! It is can be scary to sell yourself (and .. actually that terror kinda sticks with you, but I promise we're all there. We may be considering some kind of support group o_0). Thank you for giving this a go, I promise whatever you raise, you'll be helping someone. $1 can mean the difference between a phone line - a life line - being open, or being closed.

Bidding starts at midnight GMT and I'm taking bets on how long before the server succumbs to the awesome this time...

Can you sign up for this if you're still working on fics from the last? My deadline is 31st, and I'm kind of hugging that because I'm polishing, but they will be finished in time, so...

the WGF auction is exempt from the "no signing up with goodies still due" because it was such a short time ago and the deadlines haven't passed. If a Ho's sure they're not over-extending themselves, it's all good :)

Ahh good. I'm not overextended, I have [name removed*] pinned down to a [object removed] while [name removed] [verb removed]'s him. So it's all good!

[*shhhh, no spoilers]

So I shall try and sign up...

Bwah! But .. but .. can we at least play "guess the noun?" :P

You can! (Actually, given what she asked for, my bidder can probably take a guess at all of it, but I'm not giving it away. I got a bit carried away already on it... *looks at it sideways*)

This will segue nicely into "animal, vegetable or mineral", unless the mental images win *cough*

Yay for getting carried away!

Yyeah - only a little, but I said 1000 word, this is 1500 and it's not done yet. Oh well!

Those are awsome news!!!!!! It's great to see so many Hos!

I know that I couldn't sign up for this one (cause still working on the vid for special one, and taking part to an other auction later) but I really plan to sign up for the next one in the year! :)

I so want to sign up, but I can't do it. Not this time. But my finger is itching to hit that button.

*sobs more*

Hopefully my muse will return and next time I can ho myself for something more fun than beta reading. But hey, I saw people bidding for betas in past auctions, so I thought I'd at least offer that much.

Thanks! I'm new, and shaking out a little...but as you say, any dollar bid is more than zero and it's all good. I may take you up on the support group though. *g*
