I understand. You found paradise on meme. You had a good wank, you made a good memeing. The mods protected you and there were critters. So you didn't need a friend like me. Now you come and say "Nonnie, help me get to the next post." But you don't ask with respect. You don't offer friendship. You don't even think to call me "Anon." You come into my house on the day my pony is to be married and you say, "The toP and bottom threads make slash fans sound so silly, and femslash fandom is superior for not having it and treating it as a character trait. Stop proving Freud right."

Reminders:
- No deliberate variant fonts and no emoji in thread titles. You can use them in the comment, but not in the title.
- Only one catch-all 'Disruptive and Provocative Opinions' thread is allowed per post.
- The 6500 comment limit is now permanent; 'which topics belong on main meme' wank remains banned.

All the [community profile] fail_fandomanon Rules and Information (and Ban Requests): https://fail-fandomanon.dreamwidth.org/1076.html. The short version: no embeds, don't out people's real names, don't be that much of an asshole, body fluids are off topic, Mods reserve the right to freeze, screen, and delete the fuck out of stuff. FFA discussion covers a wide variety of topics and has a very flexible view of 'fandom' that includes politics, current events, and cooking techniques. FFA is a Choose NOT to Warn experience. Meme away.

NB: Meme rules do not require spoiler cuts/white-text/etc. Though, if you want to use spoiler cuts, a wonderful nonnie found a way to add them to DW. Just use the code below.
<div tabindex="-1"><b>spoiler title</b><div>Some spoilery content.</div></div>
See here for a detailed explanation and caveats.

NB 2: Dreamwidth added a new way to link to a DW account (or accounts on some other sites) by prefixing the username with an @ sign (see this FAQ). It can be confusing if you didn't intend to create a link. You can avoid that by typing a backslash (\) before the @ sign. The backslash won't display but the @ sign won't trigger DW to turn it into a link. A kind nonnie also suggested you could get the @ symbol if you typed &#64; (thanks!).

UK Politics & Brexit discussion should go in one top-level thread that's clearly named.

All discussion of sexual abuse and rape culture should go in one thread.

COVID-19: Can now be discussed on main meme. Topics about the pandemic in the US & UK need to go to the threads about those countries. If it's personal, it still goes to the PP. Any attempt at wank will be frozen.

US Politics is back in its own separate post. Discussion of US politics related sexual abuse and rape culture should go into one properly labeled thread there.

The fandom was already very big pre-manhua, pre-donghua. Suika doing a daily chapter update really helped to hype it up. There was tons of fanart, P4P etc. in English-speaking fandom on Twitter. (Not sure about Tumblr)

I don't think many people knew about the daily chapters since she was only advertising it in her small circle of friends. As far as I knew the whole thing just popped up fully translated on Novel Updates one day to a lot of people's shock and surprise.

I know one of the other slower translators was pretty salty about it because they had no idea that Suika's translation existed, and felt the whole thing popping up at once took interest away from their version.

Do you mean Sakhyu? Didn't she take a very long break during her translation and that was what prompted the other translation to be more public?

It was the Deep Dream one. They picked up from where Sakhyu left off, did a couple more chapters and then Suika's got publicized.

They're continuing because readers said they wanted multiple versions to reference, but it's still demoralizing.

AYRT

I wasn't Suika's friend at that time, but if I recall she started posting translations under the idea of "please suffer with me" and the post/translation blew up. TGCF was big before it got fully translated on NU. I'm pretty active on danmei Twitter though, YMMV.

The other translator was Maru, doing it with Sakhyu iirc, and this happened before TGCF was complete.
