We’ll then contact the winner to request their choice of prompt codeword for the next month. The final winner will be announced in that post. This is just to bring your fic to the attention of more readers and is just meant to be for fun. There will also be some crack awards given out at a monthly ‘awards ceremony’ on a tumblr post. That will be announced in each month’s prompt codeword post. Bonus points: the winner of the last month’s challenge (and the mods) may throw in some bonus points rules to make the competition more fun. You’re doing that as a courtesy, you don’t gotta.ģ.
Whatever you think is fair and puts you on an even footing with less experienced writers.
If your user subscribers are all for some other fandom you can nominate a lower figure. That’s just your AO3 user subscriber number on your stats page. To make it a level playing field, experienced writers with high user subscriber counts will estimate their own ‘handicap score’. On the last day of the month there will be a kudos count. If you have tumblr, reblog our prompt codeword post How winners are picked:ġ. In author’s notes state your estimated ‘user subscriber’ score handicap figureģ. In author’s notes provide link to our tumblr to help promote this gameĢ. No underage fics of any kind, writers must be over 18 Fast and loose rules:ġ.
