Thanks to

goddess47 for the reminder. Apologies for disappearing, I got slammed by a lot of things in RL including changing jobs in May.

As the deadline for this event is fast approaching, 10 days or so to go, how's everyone getting on? Do you think you'll be finished? I'll add a subcollection to the main collection on AO3 shortly. It's here (if the link goes wonky the parent collection is here.)

This event/challenge and the original big bang from last year will be in amnesty from the 26th of July up until 31st of December. So if you still want to post anything after the deadlines have passed, you have plenty of time.

With this year been the 25th anniversary/birthday of Children Of The Gods US/Canada premiere, I thought we could do a little event to celebrate it and the minimums are low for both fic and art. I’ll be adding a subcollection to AO3 for this challenge.

Challenge: Create something that incorporates any member of the various SG teams reflecting on their first time going through the gate, hearing about the existence of the Stargate program, or reminiscing about something that happened off world or on Earth.

• No sign up is required

• All of the shows, ships, and teams can be used, so can crossovers between any of the shows.

• The minimum word count is 750 words with no maximum.

• The minimums for art are any of the options on the list and it is by no means exhaustive are: wallpapers, book covers, banners, social media header/cover, GIF sets, pic spams, 10 icons (minimum), a four track fanmix with a cover and tracklist (optional download), 25 seconds of a fanvid (uploaded to Vimeo/YouTube etc). This isn’t an exhaustive list in anyway and there are lots of other types of art like drawings etc that can also be used for this, basically, if it’s art to you, it can be used.

Creating period is from 28th February 2022 to 24th July 2022
Posting Period is on 25th July

Let me know if anything is unclear or I’ve missed something off.

1. I've just emailed everyone who matched for art, sorry that wee delay in getting those sent off.

2. Today is the first day of the posting period and it runs to the 31st of October. Basically it's going to be a post whenever you are ready rather than choosing a specific day as this should give everyone time to finish their fics and art.

3. If anyone needs a reminder of it: the AO3 collection is here and can be added from the posting page by searching OpenTheIris. It is currently set to moderated and I'll approve as things are posted.

4. Access has been reset to everybody so hopefully, when you're ready, you should be able to post directly to the community too. (Tell me if it doesn't work.)

There's several things to cover in this post: writer summaries for artists, claims/matching, beta/cheerleader, check-in, posting. I am way behind (more than I was before) in replying to comments and that is down to some RL things that badly derailed me over the last couple of months thankfully it seems to be resolving now, so I can get to those.
*If anything looks wonky in anyway, let me know and I'll try to clarify :)

Summaries for artists:
1. Writers who would like art for their fic, email a short summary to l1lly_c@zoho.com by next Friday (I'll accept late submissions that come in over that weekend.)

1a. Writers who have their own artists or who chose not to have art you do not need to do anything.

1b. Writers who were undecided about art at sign ups have until next Friday to let me know if they would like art or not.

1c. Artists, we have three, so there may be more than one fic to create something for. I think have a little availability to do some art too if needed.

Claims/Matching:
2. The post with summaries for art will go up late Sunday 15th or sometime on Monday 16th. I can do this part anonymously or keep names on, let me know which is better for you.

2a. Artists - choose what you would like to make art for.

2b. I'll email writers and artists when claims/matches are made.

Beta/Cheerleader
4. Does anyone need me to make a "I need a beta" post at all?

4a. Does anyone need me to make a "I need a cheerleader" post at all?

Check-in:
5. The next check in post towards the end of the month will be mandatory as it is will be the last one before the posting starts.

Posting and Amnesty:
6. Posting starts on 3rd of September and ends on 31st of October.

6a. Rather than choosing a date, post your fic and art when you are ready.

6b. For anyone posting on AO3 there is a collection OpenTheIris (link in side bar.) I can put together a rough guide if needed but I think most if not all are familiar with AO3's collections by now.

6c. Post to the comm with a link to your fic with the usual headers and any warnings.

7. Amnesty starts on the 1st of November and runs until 1st of January and is for anyone who needs it once the initial posting phase is over.

7a. Post to the comm with a link to your fic with the usual headers and any warnings.
