Well, the bidding at Sweet Charity has started already, and I didn't get my offering for beta-services up in time!

I was kind of thinking

jasmasson might take me for a ride again on the Big Bang thing, but I'm just too late to be up for auction.

I'm so sorry, Jas! :(

I also ended up missing the chance to sign up... I had some problems on the site and then of course, by the time I got on, the sign ups were closed. that's what happens when I take a break and don't read LJ emails and messages for a week. I miss out on stuff... well, I still need to write my fics from the last auction by the end of April, so I guess I don't really need more on my plate right now... And yes, of course, my own bigbang fic which is only half done...

The maintainer DID say she's planning an "opt-out" list for if you DON'T want to be notified by email of when the next round's coming up, and I so need to be reminded for things like this. I hear about it via rumor, but then the timeline's awfully vague and this time I missed it. "Starting this weekend" not only means 'weekend' to me (and not Thursday!), but in my own head it also tends to be on Pacific Time (or Eastern Time at best).

I have to finish my story from the last round, and my beta piece is back to the author for rewrite, but I felt I could take the beta part on at least. Kind of bummed to miss it, and I'm hoping Jas wasn't depending on it. Maybe she and I will wind up negotiating something via email.

Maybe we can work out something on the side, and send the proceeds anyway!

I'm just beating myself up over missing that deadline, though. It doesn't become March 20 until about 10 hours later where I live!

Man, I really hope this works out, because 'Off the Script' was so gggglaaaahhhh.

Oh, and it's a really great thing for charity. Yeah, that probably should have come first...

Let's do it!
