ao3 tag meme game

[svgurl]

I snagged this from maevedarcy. :)

Go to your Works page on AO3, look at the tags, and see what the answers to these questions are. (Or any other site that has tags, I don’t know if FFnet or Wattpad does)

I'm svgurl410 on AO3 and most of my fics are on there so I'll go with that. :D

1. What rating do you write most fics under?
General Audiences (157 out of 277)

2. What are your top 3 fandoms?
1. Smallville (176 out of 277 works on AO3)
2. Marvel Cinematic Universe (58 out of 277)
3. Gilmore Girls (23 out of 277)

3. What is your top character you write about?
Clark Kent (138 works)

4. What are the 3 top pairings?
1. Clark Kent/Oliver Queen (81 out of 277 works)
2. Clark Kent/Lois Lane (45 out of 277 works)
3. James "Bucky" Barnes/Sam Wilson (18 out of 277 works)

5. What are the top 3 additional tags?
1. Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence (111)
2. Established Relationship (81)
3. Getting Together (57)

6. Did any of this surprise you? e.g. what turned out to be your top tag.
Most of it was what I expected - the ratings, the top ships, since I was very mono fandom for a long time, etc. I was surprised I've written more established relationship than getting together, since I thought I wrote more the latter, but I think that some of my older fics haven't been tagged properly so if I went back and updated, that might change. Then again, I also used to write a lot of flashbacks in my fics so technically the fic would have them established but I would want to write how they got together in the first place so I'd throw it in.

The code if you want to do it:

This is a fun meme!!

omg you wrote so much Smallville, wow. Will be hard to ever unseat it as your top fandom. ;)

Re: tagging on older fic. Oh, yeah, I totally agree, I tagged really differently 10 or 15 years ago!

It was! I like all these ao3 related memes that are popping up - it's a fun excuse to look back. :D

Haha yeah! I was very involved in one fandom and I don't think I'll ever have that much motivation/time/energy ever again, no matter how much I like a thing. :D

I imagine it was like that for a lot of people if they started posting when the site just started up/in the early stages, and were used to other platforms. I was definitely ver minimal because I was so used to LJ/FFN, which didn't have those options.

+fist bump for gen works!+

*fist bumps* I am still too awkward to write anything explicit and was way more so back when I started out, so mostly gen fics it is! :D

So lovely to see my games going round Dreamwidth for so long! I made this in June 2024.

Omg, I had no idea you came up with it! That is awesome! It's a great game. :D

[kitarella_imagines]

Thanks. It's quite funny and sweet when I see people saying 'I found this great new game/meme' as if it's somehow appeared by itself, but it's one I made ages ago.😜 I always think no one likes my games because they don't reply to my post, then I just happen to see the games circulating every so often.

I keep trying to think of new games, sometimes I can.

[svgurl]

It really is wild where these things pop up and you never consider when it came from originally! The problem with these type of games is that a lot of times people are interested but don't know how to reply to the original post.

But it is great that you do! I see you post them now and then and you're very creative. :D

[kitarella_imagines]

I will just have to be happy that my games are secretly popular without me knowing, and I see them around here and there.

It is funny sometimes, I came across someone posting this game and they wrote: 'I only have one fandom and I only write whump so this doesn't apply.' Well...why did you do the game then? 😅

Thanks 💖

[svgurl]

That is definitely something at least!

There are definitely games where I'm like "yeah, this doesn't apply to me" and just don't do them, but FOMO is real lol

[kitarella_imagines]

Maybe they start the game thinking it applies, but it doesn't? Who knows 😅

[svgurl]

True, who knows? It's all for fun anyway.

[kitarella_imagines]

Yes, it's all fun.

I can't think of another game right now but I've just posted about my January/Funuary challenge for next month. I've written 5 fics myself, but I'm not writing any more as I don't want to pressure myself like I did last year, that was exhausting! lol

[ultra_fic]

Ooh, interesting. I need to do this one :)

[svgurl]

You totally should! I like seeing people's answers to these things. :D

[impala_chick]

I'm not surprised by your top fandoms :)

[svgurl]

Haha I guess I'm not that subtle! I can't say I was surprised either. :D

[tinkaton]

might yoink this though I feel like I know what my answers will be for all of these lol. but maybe I'll be surprised!

that's an impressive amount of Smallville fic! and excellent taste with the canon divergence and established relationship tags haha.

[svgurl]

You should! Even if you think you know, it's still fun to look back and either get confirmation or a surprise. :D

I definitely was very single fandom at the time where I had the most motivation! And when you write for slash fics, the canon divergence tag does become your friend lol :D
