I volunteer for a) things I know the canon for well enough to write, and b) things I wouldn't mind getting to know the canon for well enought to write.
Wow. So how well do you have to know the canon to sign up for it? Like, "Oh, I've read that and liked it - I'd have to read it again, but that's fine," or, "Oh, I know what that's about and I wouldn't mind reading it, so that's fine"?
(I'm awed by your courage, there. You sound ripe for the Extreme NYR challenge, invented by I-forget-who: when the random NYR script goes live, go to it, hit refresh three or four times, and that's your challenge. Learn canon as necessary and write a story.)
And I have a list of fandoms that I'm going to keep asking for until I get 'em, but every year one drops off the list, so by now there are a few that I'm willing to swap around.
Likewise. I have a mental list of fandoms I want, and although there is one guaranteed slot (until I get it, anyway - and I'm not expecting that to happen), the others can be swapped around pretty painlessly, especially since two have dropped off the list now.
