Signups closed!

[sholio]

Signups are closed and matching will take place over the next couple of days. I hope to have assignments out tomorrow but it may be as late as the 2nd or 3rd depending on how the matching process and RL go.

We have 27 signups this year, which is the most we've ever had. Go AC fandom!

I'll try to get a post about games/challenges up later today, but it might take a backseat to challenge matching, in which case it'll be up in a few days.

Challenges and Games (draft post)

[sholio]

Okay, this is a preliminary post with a list of (COMPLETELY OPTIONAL) challenges based loosely on the themed challenges in the Star Wars May the 4th exchange, but with a very Agent Carter twist! Thanks to kore for helping me brainstorm these. :)

Feedback is very welcome. Is this too confusing? Too much? I decided to drop one part of what kore and I talked about, which was allowing participants to ask for prompts from a list of Peggy's spy gadgets and Howard's inventions - I started working on lists of those and was eventually like "... this is too much. XD" Too much for me as the mod, and possibly just too much additional complication to the exchange itself.

Actually, in general, when you look under the cut, do you think there are too many options? There is A LOT, and if we had to drop a few things out, it might make the whole list more manageable.

The idea is, to "win" each challenge we need to have at least that many fanworks that meet the criteria in the collection when it goes live on June 8th. This is exchange-wide, not individual, and there are no prizes (though I'll see if I can come up with something special if we get at least a few of these). One fanwork can fulfill multiple challenges if it fits all the criteria, e.g. a femslash vid would fill both Silver Screen and Ladies Night, and possibly others depending on its content.

Thoughts?

Remember, ALL OF THIS IS OPTIONAL. If you're thinking any of this looks too complicated to be fun, don't worry, all you really need to focus on is your assignment! But I'm also open to ideas for streamlining and simplifying if this looks too complicated to be fun for anyone.

And there will also be discussion posts, posts to offer plot bunnies/prompts (like last year), and that kind of thing once we get underway.
