Poll: What kind of crack bang were you thinking?

[meus_venator]

So there are great crack options out there and

we wanted to ask your opinion on some.

With the amazing j2_everafter closing it's doors : (  we were thinking of running a
J2_crack Magical Tales Bang (Name to be determined – ideas?).

We see it as being open to fic of all sizes and to both fairytales (Disney and others), cartoons (print and TV) and television series.
*And again remember, crack only has to have some unworldly aspect to it. Personally I consider pretty much all of J2_everafter crack, just because of the themes not because of the writing style. So to keep that in mind. Serious writing on strange/unlikely AUs is more than welcome.

We're thinking of having an open word count and an option for artists, videos or writers to go solo if they choose. Or a story/Vid/ art sign up to offered art or fic toward the end.

Other things we were thinking of:
• not having a draft submission, just an email check in that you're still doing okay and still onboard.
• having two potential posting rounds that you could commit to later. (A shorter deadline in apx two months and a longer deadline of four months.) So if anyone wants to post earlier (no matter the length of the story) they can.

So? Opinions? Thoughts? Naming ideas?

Could we do a quick meme now, and the bang-thingy later in the year?
Yes, can we?
Please?
*batting her eyelids*

LOL! The icon! That doesn't work on me little girl. I'm old and I'm ornery LOL

Yes, we can do a meme. I'm just trying to survive to post my BB before I launch into one of those.
Do you have a preferred topic?

[linvro21.livejournal.com]

TEEEHEEEEEEEEE!

So, yes, meme......
I haven't been around that long on LJ to have many suggestions: I like song prompts, or pictures, or a sentence/quote to be used.

Hej, my icon has been f*cked up :(
It was this one...

[meus_venator]

Of course it was LOL, emotional blackmail... who can fight against that. It's a wonder you don't have an image of a black velvet painting with crying children on it. Whoops strike that, I don't want to give you any ideas.

Yes, right after July 3 we can set up a meme. : )

Joepie!
Yes!
Joechei!
Jawohl!
Hoera!
...
I hereby present you chocolate moose mouse as an offering.

[meus_venator]

No, no, no, I want to stick with the Moose option, but the tall one with the floppy hair. He could be covered with chocolate thought. I don't want to be difficult about this. LOL

I was just coming here to suggest the same thing, and then I was transfixed by Puss in Boots :D

(What is wrong with you, m-v? How can you not succumb to the giant kit-tey eyes???)

I adore the idea of some sort of fairy tale challenge, but I think it might be nice for us to dip our toes in with a comment meme or a team challenge ala spn-bigpretzel to start.

Also, linvro21, I think instead of Please you meant to say Pweeeaze?

A challengz zoundz nize (better? :)

[meus_venator]

What's a team challenge, like the white hat/black hat on spn_bigpretzel?
I need someone to PM me to explain how it works. Same with a meme. YIKES. deep waters.

[linvro21.livejournal.com]

A team challenge like the hats is fun, but afterwards you get A LOT of little fics.. The danger lurks in getting ore quantity than quality.
I can't help you out with a meme, maybe ask Deirdre_c?
Plus I like to write to some kind of prompt...
But maybe that's just me?

[meus_venator]

Then what kind of challenge were you thinking?
I'm just not sure how these work.

[linvro21.livejournal.com]

Maybe not a challenge, just a meme?
Is also less complicated for you.
