Pick a number

[gwyn]

This is a cute meme swiped from killabeez that might be a fun way to squeeze some positivity out of things.

I currently have 179 works posted on AO3. Choose a random number—no peeking!—between 1 and 179 inclusive (where 1 is the first work ever posted and 179 is the latest), and I will tell you three things I currently like about that work.

(Obviously higher numbers will give you the stuff from my descent into MCU madness...)

You know it's funny, I thought I knew this off the top of my head, but I forgot that morgan dawn was putting up old Media Cannibals vids and adding me as co-creator on some, so this is actually Tender Comrade, the a capella Professionals vid.

- This was one of the first vids I ever worked on with the group, and I loved being able to participate and bring my video database brain to work on a project.

- I still remember the unbelievable difficulty Sandy went to to edit that song, and shorten the lengthy pauses, and how much I admired her work and just what I learned as we went along. And how touching the vid was.

- A lot of my memories now are of the remaster Justacat and I did. We couldn't figure out why the timing was so wildly off--she thought it was exactly right because it matched her copy of the vid precisely, but I knew that it was terribly off timing. No other vid on her tape copies was off timing, but for some reason, this one was quite a few seconds off, and it took us weeks to get it straightened out and for me to get a correctly timed version to her, and then to re-edit the re-edits. It was wild.
