We just want to take this opportunity to remind everyone that [info]snape_potter is not simply a mod-run fest community. We're here for YOU to post your own creations whether they've been done for another fest or one of the drabble communities. If it's Snarry, you can post it here. That holds true for discussions you might want to have or recs you'd like to make. If you see a great fic on AO3 or art at dA, share it with us!

Snarry-a-Thon 2021: PROMPTING IS CLOSED!  
Prompting is now OPEN CLOSED!


art by [info]stellamoon


Don't hold back. All kinds of prompts are welcome - happy prompts, dark prompts, silly prompts, kinky prompts, fluffy prompts, romantic prompts, art prompts, prompts set in the past, present, or future, prompts from any universe, both unique ideas and beloved fandom tropes....We welcome any flavour of Snarry. Let your fantasies run wild! Submitting prompts doesn't commit you to anything.

Each person may leave up to THIRTEEN prompts (one for every year of Snarry-a-Thon!!) but please, no more. And because we will be posting prompts inside a text box, we ask people please try to limit your prompts to no more than two or three sentences. We would like to reiterate that Snarry-a-Thon is not an exchange and personal preferences like who tops or side-pairings not essential to the spirit of the prompt may be edited from the final prompt. Last year's prompt table is here if you'd like to get a better idea what your prompt will look like in its final form.

Prompting is open until 11:59 pm (EST) on February 13. The complete list of all prompts will be posted at 12 pm (EST) on February 14. Comments will be temporarily disabled to give everyone a chance to read over the entire list of prompts and decide which prompt they would like to claim. On Monday, February 15, at 11 am (EST), comments will be enabled on the post and claiming of prompts will begin.

Snape_Potter Membership Reminder  
We've had a flurry membership requests recently (Thank you!!) but unfortunately we've had to turn many down because they do not have the required age statement. We also attempt to send PMs to the journal users that are rejected but if one hasn't validated his/her email address the PM will not go through. This has effected quite a few potential members at our DW site especially.

Here is what is required for membership:

•You need to have an Age Statement (stating you're over 18) or the YEAR of your birth displayed in your profile before your application to join the Snape-Potter community can be accepted. It really can be as simple as "I am over 18."

•If you have a YEAR of Birth listed, please check to see that it's viewable by everyone.

Simple as that! If you've only been watching the comm, we encourage you to join today so you will be able to access all the wonderful fic and art we have planned for ours fests as well as member entries.

An additional note, if you are a member at one community and primarily stick to that journaling site, you should have no difficulty seeing entries. If, however, you move between LJ or IJ and DW, you need to join each community you plan to utilize.

Important Member Information  
Regarding the recent technical difficulties that IJ has suffered....

If you are a member of [info]snape_potter on IJ but cannot see this post, comment to this entry.

We will need to remove your membership and then invite you back again. You can also remove yourself and reapply for membership but it's easier on our end if we already know you were a member.

This will be important, particularly during fests, which often have locked entries. However, as your mods discovered yesterday, if you are a posting member, the comm will allow you to post a locked entry but even you will not be able to see it afterward.

We will try to remind people about this periodically, especially before/during fests.

Thanks for your continued support!

Technical Difficulties  
Since IJ's recent extended downtime, personal journals and many communities have had issues.

For your personal journal, you should double-check any filters you have as they may not have remained the same.

Here at [info]snape_potter, there has been an issue with adding tags. The settings have been modified and, hopefully, that's corrected. If you have any other problems, let us know via comment here or email to spfestmod at gmail dot com.

Thanks!

2017 Fest Schedule at Snape_Potter  
This year we hope to have a fest that will meet everyone's Snarry needs. We will be hosting two fests at [info]snape_potter: Snarry-a-Thon17 and Secret Snarry Swap and a comment fest for Harry's birthday.

For those who like to work from anything goes prompts, there is Snarry-a-Thon17, for those who like to warm up with Snarry during the busy end of the year holidays, there is Secret Snarry Swap, and for those who like spur of the moment comment fests, we'll celebrate Harry's birthday in style in July!

The first full fest of the year will be the 9th annual Snarry-a-Thon. Prompt-based and anything goes, our signature fest begins posting May 1st.

The summer months are always a bit slow and we'll perk things up a bit with Harry's birthday party comment fest!

Our final fest will be December's Secret Snarry Swap with details to come closer to sign-ups.
