It's that time of year again, fandom

[tardis_stowaway]

The time is upon us once more.  Get yourselves over to f_march_madness right now to support your favorite characters in a cross-fandom battle royale!

Sources of entertainment include:

-Campain for your darlings with gifs, meta, vote trading, desperate pleas, or whatever else might convince someone to vote for them.

-Fill out an office poll to attempt to predict the whims of the community and possibly be rewarded with GLORY.

-Read the passionate comment section to giggle at out of context jokes and be introduced to shows that you might want to watch.

-Stare in shocked horror or throw popcorn when a wankfest develops.  It's war out there.

-Grumble about the mods' totally inexplicable choices of which characters to include from each fandom.  (Mary Morstan left out of Sherlock voting FOR THE SECOND YEAR IN A ROW, despite the inclusion of characters with much less screen time like Sarah Sawyer or Anderson?  Is this an anti-Mary plot or just negligence?) (See, the previous source of entertainment is already operating.)

-Wail and gnash your teeth at being forced to choose between amazing characters.

The prelims, which select the champion for each fandom, are going on from now until Friday at ~1 pm Eastern/10 am Pacific.  Head on over now, and may the best character* win!

*Clearly, that's Peggy Carter

I normally don't pay attention to this, but I will totally vote the heck out of it so Peggy wins. :-) Though, there are lots of good female characters to choose from. Melinda! Felicity! All of the Clone Club from Orphan Black!

Hmm, I can see how this can get pretty obsessive pretty fast.

Hooray for Peggy!

Yeah, the wealth of fantastic female characters makes it easy to become far too wrapped up in the contest, especially when other people keep voting for the wrong characters. ;)

After having filled out my bracket, I must say that having Donna Noble that close to Abbie Mills is *total bullshit* and forces everyone to make a hard decision way too early on, prediction-wise. Choosing the wrong one in the second round is gonna wreck a lot of brackets.

I do have Peggy Carter going quite far, though I don't have her winning.
