NEW CHALLENGE?
Ok so I just had this crazy idea at 2am after re-reading some old challenge fics.

I know there have been a lot of dropouts from the various challenges held here. I know that some people simply ran out of time before deadline but had made a good start on their fics. I also know some people just had to give up because the fic wasn't working.

What I want to know is, how do you guys feel about a new challenge to finish all the fics that didn't get finished in time for past challenges. Are there some still out there sitting on shelves?

What do you think? Anyone interested in a second chance challenge?

Well I've never said no-one else is allowed to open a challenge comm. They don't need my blessing, they just need to do it. I don't have a trademark on challenge comms. If anyone REALLY cared enough to want to run one, they can, and probably would have by now.

I saw a new xmas challenge comm over the holidays, even though qaf_giftxchnge already exists, so... people will do what they want.

And I mean, no-one except Xie has ever asked to guest host a challenge in my comm either, so I don't think people out there are dying to run challenges.

All I know is, they're a SHITLOAD of work to run.

well, yes some people don't care. but others of us have no wish to step on your toes since you've already been running a fantastic challenge asylum for QAF fandom.

i'm not saying anyone is dying to run one, because they are a lot of work, but a lot of people would be hesitant to just be like "Hey Alice, can I guest host?" or they don't know there is a need because they assume you still plan on running them.

or maybe I am the only person who thinks like this...*shrugs*

	Maybe they're hesitant, but they'll never know if they don't ask, right? Obviously I'm not opposed to the idea since Xie already ran one. Anyway, like I said, I'll probably run this one, because I'd like to see the idea through, and then we'll see what happens. (Reply to this) (Parent)
