As a reminder, here's the posting format:

Please include as a minimum in each post, the following headers:
Title:
Author/Artist:
Fandom:
Pairing/characters:
Rating:
Warnings: [character death, rape/non-con, and shota/chan/loli-con, or otherwise at your choice (if you want to entice us with your "warnings," I won't have a problem with that either)]
Prompt/challenge you're answering:

And the standard subject line is something like: Title (Fandom(s), Pairing), but please proceed as you see fit.

Tagging policies: Each piece will get a tag for its fandom(s), author/artist, pairing, and the challenge round that it answers.

I'll create new tags as they're needed -- feel free to add tags to your pieces if they're already in the tag list. That usually includes your author tag, and the '! 2011 fall eight characters challenge' tag. Otherwise, I'll be happy to handle them myself.

Feel free to start posting once it is October 1st in your area.

Once again, best of luck to everyone, and I hope we see a lot of excellent stories/art!
I can't believe how little I've written and drawn yet myself...! I've got to get to work!

Are you ready? I can't wait any longer...! XD

The only numbers are in the prompts, so you should be able to just find and replace them on your word processor of choice.

( Here you are...! )

So? So? Did you get something wonderfully hilarious, brain-breaking, or inspiring that you'd like to share? Feel free to chat and mention some of your favorites here!

And if you still want to sign up, just head on over to the sign-up post and make your lists. If you already peeked at the prompts though, don't cheat! ^^; Tell me you signed up late and I'll mix the numbers up into a new order to keep things randomized for you.


Posting starts October 1st! Good luck and have fun!

The first rule of No True Pair is: have fun!
The second rule of No True Pair is: Suzume-mod always jumps the gun.
(The third rule of No True Pair is: talk about No True Pair- just in case you were wondering)

0TP Round Seven is officially open for sign-ups!

Sign-ups will run from now until September 10th!
(If you show up between September 11th & October 1st and ask me nicely, I'll probably let you join in anyway with the numbers on the prompts reshuffled, but it's better to get in early, right?)

September 11th: Prompts are revealed.

October 1st: Posting starts.

-----------

Comment here with your numbered list of eight characters for the March/April round of No True Pair. As per previous rounds:

- your list can contain characters from one fandom or different fandoms
- you may use your original characters
- you may have more than one list (as many as you like)
- you can also use less than eight characters -- simply repeat the same characters until you have a name next to every number
- every character in your list will have a prompt with every other one.

This is a low pressure challenge. Signing up does not obligate you to complete any fic/art.

I do hope that you will participate and I encourage you to invite your friends!!

(Also, feel free to get those last entries in for the rest of the 19th in your region. I'll update the master list tomorrow.)
