Oh, I know - mostly I'm just laughing at myself, and my inherent love of organization and infrastructure.
... I just got sidetracked by reading through most of the threads on the three older TVMs. *g* It's interesting! There was sort of a lull in 2008, when almost all the commentary was general praise; there was more incisive commentary (both positive and negative) in 2006 and 2009. Which, who knows why, but it'd be interesting if the return to crit in 2009 was partly because people got used to the concept again in 2008 and had worked themselves up to it.
I wouldn't actually expect a lot of trolling -- at least, there didn't seem to be much before, and while I didn't re-read every comment, I only saw one where someone crossed the line into a personal attack. So it would probably be fine, especially since I'm sure lots of people would be on the lookout and ready to drop me a note.
And probably flummery would be the place to host it, so technically I could forcecoerce convince therienne to co-mod it anyway. *g*
So, I dunno, maybe! I'd have to consider timing; the originals were run in late January to early February, but that's kind of a long way off (and also pretty soon after Festivids reveals, when people mostly aren't feeling critical, I suspect). OTOH festivids starts up soon, I think nominations are next week, so if it were going to be this fall, it would probably have to be within the next few weeks so people have time (not to mention the folks who do Festivids and Yuletide both, who're going to be buried from mid-October through mid-January).
