Are You Game?

Posting begins Monday, February 1st at 12:00 AM EST!

Are you ready to post? Are you ready to read? ^_^

Here are your handy dandy posting instructions:

All art and fic over 100 words must be behind cut tags to prevent flist flooding.  Any fic that includes explicit material (*cough*SEX!*cough*), character death, etc. must also be behind cut tags regardless of length to help those who don't want to get caught reading or viewing NSFW items. If your art includes icons, you may post a one teaser icon with the rest being behind a cut. Any other art: a thumbnail will be an acceptable teaser as long as it doesn't include any bits that are NSFW.

Please use the follow format when posting:

The cut for the fiction or work of art. All are, with the exception of a small worksafe preview, must be behind a cut.

Please post your work to the community for archiving purposes, not just a link to your IJ.

Please leave the tagging up to the mods unless you see a tag for your fandom and your name.

Recipients will remain anonymous unless they choose to out themselves.  ^_~

For those just here for the read:

Read and enjoy, but please be sure to drop a comment or two for all the hard work the authors put into their pieces.  It is always nice to know when someone enjoys your work, therefore cookies are always accepted!

Claiming will remain open:

Claiming will remain open for all dates that haven't yet come to pass for those who haven't had a chance to get in on the action (or those masochists that just want MOAR!).

Have fun!

Writers and Artists - Start your claiming!

To claim a prompt:

1. Copy and paste the prompts for which you want to write or create art into a comment to this post or either of the prompt posts. Please include the date and whether you are making a fic or art claim to help me promptly note your claim.

Example: February 28 – Devil May Cry, Nero/Dante: Longing – Where have you been?

2. Each prompt can be claimed a total of six times (three for fic and three for art).

3. You are welcome to claim your own prompts.

4. Collaborations are welcome.

Please be patient with me as I note your claims. Claiming will be on a first comment first noted basis which I will note as soon as possible.

Writers and artists – these prompts are supposed to be challenging and fun. Interpret the prompts as you will but please keep the main elements the requester submitted. All fiction must be at least 100 words. Art claims can be in the medium of the artist's choice - we will accept icons, wallpapers, fanvids, drawings, painting, etc.

Posting instructions will be available around January 28th, but please feel free to start brainstorming or writing/creating as soon as you have your prompt.

Begin claiming here:
February 1-15
February 16-28

Here is a prompt list sneak peek for all you writers/artists thinking about claims.

Please check the list over and let me know if you see any mistakes or if I have missed any prompts.

Do not make claims to the list at this time. Claiming will begin 12:00 AM EST Friday, January 15th and will run until January 31st. If you still have a prompt to submit, don't worry, we are still taking them until the 14th (8pm EST) right here!

And now, the lists:

February 1-15
February 16-28

Happy New Year: Prompting is now open!

Leave your prompt requests in the comments following this format.

Please limit any crossovers to games only.

Again, your prompt requests will be collected and organized into a Master List. When the master list is up and free of error, we will have a claiming session where you will be able to claim the prompts for which you want to write or create art.

A sneak peek of the Master List will be posted January 13th for public viewing to make sure that there are no errors (however, prompt requests will still be taken until January 14th).

Claiming will begin at 12:00 AM EST January 15th and we will accept claims until the first day of posting (12:01 AM EST, February 1st).

Posting instructions will be posted around the end of the claiming session.

Comments to this post are screened. If your prompt ends up being claimed and written, I am leaving it up to you to out yourself as prompter if you'd like.

 

**I forgot to post this.  Apologies!

Welcome to the prompting instructions for the February short session! Get your prompts ready! :)  

Prompting will open at 12:00 AM (EST) on tonight, so look for a second post to appear then! There is no limit to the amount of prompts you can submit.  Submitting a prompt does not obligate you to participate - just be kind enough to read and leave a comment or two!

All prompts must be for game fandoms and their franchises (such as movies, books, series, etc. that were made based on the game.)  Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

The prompts will be gathered into one master list. Claiming will begin 12:00 AM EST January 15 and will continue until 11:59 PM EST January 31.
Posting will begin  on February 1.

As of this last areyougame session, we have some prompts to retire!

So, if you are looking for a challenge or just need something to keep you occupied during the the next few months, feel free to let these bunnies take up residence with you. No claiming necessary for the free-for-all, just take, create and post here sometime during the rest of this month.

Please follow the regular posting format for the free-for-all.




Prompting will commence again on January 1.

What a good round! We were graced with some really wonderful fiction and art. Congratulations for a job well done.

Today, I bring you the community time-line:

This month (November) - the community will remain open for any of you that lost momentum during the October round or just had life careen into you at top speed - you may certainly post any late fic that you're still planning to write this month. I am sure the readers won't mind. I will just add them onto the November Fic/Art List as they are posted (which hopefully will be posted this coming week).

December - I will post a list of the retiring prompts. Feel free to grab these at will - no claiming needed - and post the finished work to the community by December 31.

January - we will start another prompting session for the short February round. Feel free to start thinking up your prompts now! ^_^


Again, thanks to all the writers and artists that have contributed to areyougame not only in this round but in past and future ones. You are the reason why this community is successful!
