Frequently Asked Questions

What challenges will we be doing on this community?
Though we will be starting with a prompt-fest/thematic challenge for our very first challenge, we will probably be doing all manner of challenges as time goes on, from exchanges to one sentence memes to even, perhaps, a big bang!

How do I sign up?
For every challenge, there will be a general post to the community where the authors will be able to comment in order to participate.

What pairings/genres do you accept at

dai_stiho?
All of them! You name it, we're more than willing to accept it, no matter what part of the universe's sandbox you happen to be playing in.

What are the requirements for a fic?
The requirements will vary from challenge to challenge, but to start us off, we're going to be working with a 1000 word minimum that answers either one of the prompts or one of the themes that have been chosen for this round. Any and all pairings and rating are welcome, however, so long as NSFW things are put behind LJ cuts

Can I join the community?
Yes, all authors — and readers — should join this community to keep appraised of not only our challenges, but of our works.

How much wiggle room do we have on deadlines?
None. Due dates are ironclad.

If I miss a deadline or I can't complete my fic, what happens?
If you're an author and you miss the deadline, then you're disqualified for this round of challenge. No big deal. We won't come after you. Don't count on us being able to change your assigned posting day, though. You need to be ready to post your fic by your assigned date.

Where am I posting my fic?
You may post your fic wherever you want be it on LJ, Dreamwidth, a personal site, etc. We ask that you post a master post to the comm. with links to all parts of your fic.

When do I get to post my fic?
That largely depends on the number of people participating in a given challenge and the number of fics being written. There will be no more than 3 fics posted per day, starting the final day of the challenge. Everyone will be assigned a posting date within this time period. The fic must be posted in their entirety on the assigned posting date. No one is to post their fic prior to the assigned posting day.

If it is discovered you have posted your fic publicly before your scheduled post date, you will be disqualified and your masterpost will be deleted from the community.
