Challenge On The Big Bridge

Works have been revealed!

You can find everyone's works right here in the Collection! Please browse and enjoy at your leisure. :)

If you created a work, you may wish to re-date it to today's date if your fandom's section moves quickly.

Thank you everyone that took part in Challenge On The Big Bridge :)

Since I have been asked about both extensions and about partial-posting, the answer is YES. :)

I understand this has been a complicated season for many people and this challenge is meant to be low stress.

The new schedule will be as follows:

- Works due: September 9th (19:59 ADT)
- Works revealed: September 10th (07:59 ADT)

If you aren't able to complete the 5k words/equivalent even with a few extra days but have finished pieces, go ahead and share those as well.

It's time to check in again (if you'd like)!

How're things progressing? Feeling good? Maybe need a little encouragement from fellow Challengers? Or you just want to share or chat? It's all good here :)

If you haven't made the progress you've wanted to, remember: there's still a month to go. You can do it!

And if you're ready to post, the AO3 Collection is open for posting.

Signups (completely optional anyway) have ended and now it's the creation period.

It's not necessary, as this isn't a check-in, but if you'd like to share anything else about your project(s), good or bad, the post is here. :)

Welcome to Challenge On The Big Bridge!

The goal of the Challenge is to create at least one fanwork for a role-playing video game from Japan, or Korea, or China, or any Asian country - honestly it's all good!

The schedule:

- Sign ups: End June 30st (07:59 ADT)
- Creating period: Starts July 1st
- First check in: July 15th
- Second check in: July 31st
- Third check in: August 15th
- Works due: August 31st (19:59 ADT)
- Works revealed: September 1st (07:59 ADT)


The guidelines:

- For fanfic: 5000 words minimum cumulative over one or more fics
- For fanart: Art, either 5 completed pieces of art on unlined paper or 10 sketches on unlined paper or equivalent
- For other fanworks: Whatever you feel is comparable to the above

- Multiple creations over multiple fandoms are okay
- Multiple sign ups are okay, sign ups are mostly for gauging interest
- Multiple submissions are okay
- Co-authors, collaborations and stuff are also okay
- Subject changes, media changes, all of that's also okay!

- No penalty for withdrawing, you can say why or not at your discretion, life happens
- There will be check-in posts but they're optional, mostly for sharing bits, cheering on, commiserating and such


The AO3 Collection is available here.


If you have any questions about the challenge, go ahead and leave them on this post!


Nota bene: I'm hoping everyone gets to have a good time with this fest. That means everyone taking part needs to let everyone else have a good time on their own time. No tearing down other people's faves, guys, whether that's a game or a character or a ship or a fannish genre, okay? We're here to have fun, and that means everyone.

This is it, everyone! :D

Today is the last day to post to the AO3 collection, which I'll lock no sooner than 19:59 ADT tonight. (You will still be able to make edits if you need to.)

Works will be revealed tomorrow, Aug 1st, no sooner than 7:59 ADT.

If you're still working, I believe in you! :D

It's that time again!

How're things progressing? Feeling good? Maybe need a little encouragement from fellow Challengers? Or you just want to share or chat? It's all good here :)

If you haven't made the progress you've wanted to, remember: there's still a month to go. You can do it!

And if you're ready to post, the AO3 Collection is open for posting.

This is a post to remind that it's the final day for (completely optional) signups!

It's also a post to celebrate the beginning of the creation period. It's not necessary, as this isn't a check-in, but if you'd like to share anything else about your project, good or bad, the post is here.
