1. How long have you been a Xena fan?
I've liked Xena since I was about 14, but I only really became a fan a year ago 2. Have you seen (a) every episode more than once, (b) every episode at least once, (c) most of the episodes, (d) fewer than half of the episodes? (a) every episode more than once, I used to watch Xena while eating my dinner lol 3. Do you still watch X:WP (on TV, video or DVD)? If yes, do you watch (a) every day, (b) once or twice a week, (c) a few times a month, (d) a few times a year? I pretty much watch it if it's on TV but I'll watch the DVDs every 6 months or so 4. How long have you been in the online fandom? hmmm from now I guess 5. How do you feel about the finale and the way the show ended? (a) loved it, (b) liked it, (c) had mixed feelings, (d) disliked it, (e) hated it? (d) disliked it, I personally felt the whole point of the show was that Gabrielle & Xena were always there for each other. I feel if Xena had to do what she did, Gabrielle should have gone with her, leaving Gabrielle alone felt really empty to me. 6. Rank the seasons from most to least favorite. Oh I love them all 7. Your five favorite and five least favorite episodes? I think I like them all for different reasons but all my fav (can't pick five) are all the Ares/Xena eps Least...hmm I suppose Married with Fishstick..that's all I can think of 8. Your favorite characters (as many as you wish). Xena Ares Gabrielle 9. Which romantic pairings do you like? (pick as many as you like) (a) Xena/Gabrielle, (b) Xena/Ares, (c) Gab/Joxer, (d) Gab/Virgil, (e) other, (f) none. Xena/Ares Gab/Joxer (funny but sweet) 10. Do you read and/or write fanfiction? Any particular type? Do you follow any of the virtual seasons? I read lots, too many to name but i love Xena/Ares fic. I do write fanfic for The Last of The Mohicans I keep meaning to read them but never seem to find the time 
11. Are you a fan of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys as well as Xena? I've only just started watching it! I'd seen random eps (the Xena ones etc) but finally decide to watch the whole thing 12. What are your other favorite shows, if any? Buffy Korean dramas 13. Are you male or female? Female 14. What's your age group? (a) under 16, (b) 16-21, (c) 21-30, (d) 30-40, (e) 40-45, (f) 45-55, (g) over 55, (h) none of your beeswax. (c) 21-30 15. What is your occupation?

Thank you for the welcome!
I am going, I've just posted quite a few messages about it as I'm overly excited and nervous! haha It's not an easy hobby I can tell you but it is a lot of fun! If I get really good at it I may even try my hand at some Xena inspired costumes! |

You should read the threads in the convention subforum.
Lots of first-time goers, I'm sure you all are going to have a fabulous time!

1. How long have you been a Xena fan? I have been a Xena fan since season three...what year is that?
2. Have you seen (a) every episode more than once, (b) every episode at least once, (c) most of the episodes, (d) fewer than half of the episodes? But I have seen quite a few of them numerous times. I used to watch them every night as I went to bed, but I rarely do that much anymore. 3. Do you still watch X:WP (on TV, video or DVD)? If yes, do you watch (a) every day, (b) once or twice a week, (c) a few times a month, (d) a few times a year? 4. How long have you been in the online fandom? a very short time...I barely know what I am doing on these boards. 5. How do you feel about the finale and the way the show ended? (a) loved it, (b) liked it, (c) had mixed feelings, (d) disliked it, (e) hated it? I definitely felt like there were holes in the storyline but there were holes throughout the entire six seasons. I really enjoyed Renee's acting in this episode and I even liked the storyline...taken at entertainment value. I have watched this episode many, many times. 6. Rank the seasons from most to least favorite. 6, 3, 4, 2, 1, 5...I guess. There are episodes I like in each of the seasons and episodes that I didn't like in each of the seasons, so it is a difficult question to answer. 7. Your five favorite and five least favorite episodes? This is a very difficult question to answer, to I will just try to pick the first ones that come to mind...although the least favorites are pretty solid. (*not in any particular
order)
Favs: One Against an Army, Who's Ghurkan, Bitter Suite, When Fates Collide, A Friend in Need. Least Favs: For Him the Bell Tolls, Key to the Kingdom, A Comedy of Eros, King Con, Ulysses 8. Your favorite characters (as many as you wish). Gabrielle...but I liked most of the characters. However, I ended up to be more of a Renee fan than a fan of any specific character. I think she is extremely talented and that is what ultimately kept me watching. 9. Which romantic pairings do you like? (pick as many as you like) (a) Xena/Gabrielle, (b) Xena/Ares, (c) Gab/Joxer, (d) Gab/Virgil, (e) other, (f) none. But I didn't really think of them that way on the show itself, that came out of fan fiction when I started looking Xena up on the internet. I heard that the show had some lesbian subtext and that is what originally tuned me in, but I just didn't think of the characters beyond the show. I could definitely see the subtext they played with over the years, but not as much as some saw. 10. Do you read and/or write fanfiction? Yes, I read fan fiction. Any particular type? Original, Alt, Uber...I don't read any of the general type of fan fiction. Do you follow any of the virtual seasons? I followed them a little bit...but I don't now...not even sure if they are still going on. 11. Are you a fan of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys as well as Xena? Definitely not. 12. What are your other favorite shows, if any? I don't regularly watch any other show...didn't then and don't know...Xena has been the only one. If I think about it though, I like to watch CSI (the original), various crime shows like Forensic Files, Ghost Hunters...and from the past I loved Remington Steele and Hart to Hart...and if I see an old episode of The Twilight Zone on, I am there!!! 13. Are you male or female? Female 14. What's your age group? (a) under 16, (b) 16-21, (c) 21-30, (d) 30-40, (e) 40-45, (f) 45-55, (g) over 55, (h) none of your beeswax. 15. What is your occupation? I used to work for a judge but I decided I wanted a new career so I left my job and moved to another state so I could go back to school. 16. Where do you live? Texas If there are some questions you don't want to answer or find it too hard to answer, you can leave it out.
