love binds all, motherfrakkers!

We were aware there was a Sam/Leoben/Kara community, yes?

are you ready to answer the big questions?

I saw a fandom secret the other day in which the person said that they would be more into the BSG fandom if it wasn't so homologous. And it really is true. Far too often, almost every fic compiled over at the_wireless is either Adama/Roslin or Kara/Lee. And I have to admit, that's one thing that makes me sad about this fandom as well.

I think if more people were writing more rare pairings, it would generate interest from other people and then it would just be this big snowball effect. (If only in hopeful theory.) I myself have been attacked by lack of muse and excess of little hater over much of the summer and so I very much feel that I'm not doing my part on that end. Not that it's all up to little ole me, but there's still the guilt in complaining about something I myself haven't done anything about.

My question for the bsg fen on my flist is this:
Is there a "rare pairing" bsg comm? If not do you think the fandom would benefit from something like that? What pairings would you exclude? Adama/Roslin and Kara/Lee only since they comprise about 85% of fanfic in this fandom? Or would you include other canon pairings as well like Helo/Sharon?

Another, somewhat related, question: Didn't there used to be a bsg fic finders or bsg fic recs community? Where is it? What happened to it?

Switching gears for a moment. Another thing I wanted to bring up, related to LOST, is something that slybrunette mentioned to me, and something I'd actually been thinking about.

The other vote is me. I just wanna see the results without having to click. I'm lazy alright!
