HOHOHO FEST | POSTING! (BUT NOT YET)  


HOHOHO FEST STARTS POSTING ON DECEMBER 1ST!


Are you guys excited? Because we’re absolutely jazzed about this fest. We’ve been gorging on all the wondeful AWZ goodies that are stuffed in our inbox (and [info]redcouchaddict made sure that none of them belonged to an undercover german soap star.) and can’t wait to share them with you all!

We’ve got just a couple things to take care of before then though, so participants and watchers read on!

POSTING
We’ll be posting Monday through Saturday at Midnight EST time starting on Dec 1st. (We’ll aim for this time. Please forgive us if we’re a few minutes off every now and then.) On Sundays we’ll post a round-up of that week’s offerings so its easier to catch up if you guys missed anything. Posting will end on December 31st. Reveals will go up on January 7th.

COMMENT ETIQUETTE/GUIDELINES
Please keep all comments respectful (will not make a Marc reference, will not make a Marc reference, lol) We don’t really think this needs to be said, but in covering our bases, any flamers and trolls will not be tolerated per [info]no7_awz’s community rules. If you see a pairing/summary/etc. in the header that is not to your taste for whatever reason, please just skip that piece.

Additionally, although constructive criticism is normally welcomed here, we ask readers to keep in mind that the authors and artists must remain anonymous during the run of the fest and are unable to respond to comments. Please hold off on any concrit until after reveals in January.

FOR GRAPHICS/ICON POSTS
Unless you are the recipient of the icons and graphics posted, do not use any of said icons/graphics until after the reveals, and then only if the creator and giftee give their permission for them to be shared.

FOR PARTICIPANTS
Just a reminder, you must remain anonymous during the posting period of the fest. (Like you are girl cleverly disguised as a boy, but no one can know ok?) Please don’t repost your fic/art/vids/graphics anywhere else until after reveals, and when you see your piece posted during the fest, please do not link to it, refer to it as yours, etc. Do not respond to comments until after the reveal. (If you’d like to reply to your recipient, make sure you are logged out and anonymous before doing so!) You guys know the drill!

Also, hopefully this goes without saying, but please comment on your gifts! Your gifter worked hard to create something to your liking. Even if your gift isn’t exactly what you hoped for lars, lars, lars, please at least thank them for their time and effort. (But we think you guys are going to be pleased. *g*)

LAALALALA YES WE KNOW. GET TO THE POSTING ALREADY! :P
We’ll be back in a few hours with our first piece. Please anticipate!! HoHoHo Fest Fighting!

HOHOHOFEST | Check-in and Beta Sign-Ups  


DEAR HOHOHOFEST PARTICIPANTS:

How are you guys doing?! Everyone chugging away at their assignments? We’ve got just under a month until the deadline, so you’ve still go plenty of time to finish (or start *cough cough*) your gifts!

If you’re having problems or just need a cheerleader and/or a friendly groping paddling to get in gear, let us know! We’re here to help!

BETA SIGN-UPS:

A few of our participants mentioned needing a beta, so if you’ve got some extra time and are willing to pitch in and help out a fellow Eskimo, please leave a comment below. You do not have to be a HOHOHOFEST participant to volunteer your beta-ing services! If you missed sign-ups or are just sad you weren’t able to jump in the fest, this is a great way to get involved!

To sign-up: Comment below with your name, email, and anything you are unwilling to read (squicks, pairings, etc.).

TO PARTICIPANTS NEEDING A BETA:

If you need a beta even if you have already emailed/informed us contact us again at hofestmod@gmail.com. Please include pairing, length and rating info as well as any warnings so we can match you up with a suitable beta. DO NOT COMMENT BELOW WITH THIS INFO. Everyone will see it, and the secret will be out about what gift you’re creating!

We haven’t had any requests for non-fic betas, but if you guys need art/graphics/vid betas, please let us know and we’ll put out another call for volunteers.

We’ll be putting up information about headers and how to submit your gift soon so watch out for that!

Happy Festing!
