Sep. 4th, 2011 @ 01:34 am mod note to participants - connectivity issues
Current Mood: grumpy
Tags:

Thanks to overzealous yard cutters, our phone line was either damaged or disconnected (meaning our dsl is down). We won't know until we can get a long ladder to assess it, but either way, our only means of going on-line is, as now, the use of a net cafe -- which is expensive and also full of people excited about their three day weekend -- or finding a site with free wifi, most of which, again, are full of people checking their email while out of town.

So for those waiting for their assignments, we ask for your patience. You </i>will</i> get your assignments either later today (the 4th) or sometime tomorrow (the 5th) if the traffic allows, but definitely no later than the 6th when we expect the out-of-towners to have gone home and cleared out of all the free wi-fi spots!

Aug. 12th, 2011 @ 09:33 pm moddy note about new Snapely rule
Tags:

Some have enquired about the new rule so we wanted to clarify:

- each participant must provide at least five Snape/pairings in either
slash or het (or in the case of the gen/pre-slash/pre-het/non-graphic
category, preferred characters and scenarios)

- the five pairings cannot be split between, for example, slash and het

- once five characters (threesomes count) are provided in at least one
of the three categories, then, yes, a participant may ask for only one
or two in a differing category, but the five pairing rule is absolute

Why?
This exchange is to highlight Snape in a variety of situations with a
variety of characters. This rule helps us weed out OTP and near-OTP
entries and helps provide participants a wider variety of choices, which
in turn provides everyone a wider variety of fic and art to enjoy.

Since it's a holiday exchange and meant to be fun, we're opting for
less stress and more focus on Snape overall. Our poor, overworked
wooby deserves more shags, cuddles, long conversations and cups of
Amortentia-laced tea, no?

The Shadow of Misery's Wings Severus Snape/Viktor Krum. Adult rating. (post-war bittersweet relationship fic)

In Search of the Right Ingredients Severus Snape/Charlie Weasley. Adult rating. (epistolary, rediscovery fic )

We know, we know, it's not a full week, but sadly, due to completely unavoidable weather-related (& internet connectivity) delays, we are going to have a one, possibly two day hiatus from posting. We're sorry, but it happens. We'll see you here in a day or two, but in the meantime, please feel free to catch up on last week's offerings and that all-important feedback. :)

Those who have already acknowledged receipt of your assignments - thank you!

There are some who still need to let us know if they did (and especially if they did *not*) get their assignment.

Check the email you signed up under and if you do not see your assignment from us, please email the moddy account at: snapelyholidays@gmail.com

Thanks!

Our 3rd draft list of possible matchups needs to be looked over by both moddies (one of whom is at her long, tiring job, the other of which is writing you now whilst dealing with both a case of shingles and a burgeoning migraine) and any match-up issues need to be mutually agreed on before assignments go out.

We appreciate your patience, and as you veterans of Snapely Holidays already know -- yes, you *will* get an equivalent extra couple days to submit your work for the extra couple days it has unexpectedly taken us to get your assignments to you, so no stress.

The best guesstimate I can give you (barring a miracle at [info]chazpure's workplace) is that the assignments go out late tonight. Worst case would be tomorrow, but no later than that - and I swear a wandoath on it.

*holds up wand and swears in particularly colourful language*

Just posting a note from a public hotspot - we've been without power at home since around noon today, due to the storms. We're hoping it will be back on soon, but if not, posting of tomorrow's entry may be delayed.

Thanks for your patience!
