Sign up here for the dS/C6D tag game!

Okay, this is the sign-up post!

Sign up by commenting on this post or this one. If there's a particular time when you don't want to be tagged, just say so. I will edit the post so there's a list of all participants.

I'll start it off on Monday by tagging someone and giving them a one-word prompt. When you're tagged, you make a dS/C6D fanwork of some kind within 24 hours: a fic, a podfic, a piece of art, a picspam, recs, meta, etc, and post it somewhere (your own journal or elsewhere) and link to it either at [livejournal.com profile] ds_noticeboard or at [community profile] duesouth (don't post the work itself to these comms, though.) You can use the prompt if you want inspiration, or ignore it. If you want, you can make your work ahead of time. If you get tagged and you're swamped that day, just pass on the tag to someone else (don't forget to pass the prompt on, too).

When you've posted, tag someone who hasn't been tagged yet with a prompt by replying to their sign-up comment, which will be either on this post or on this one. Try to make the prompt reasonably open to interpretation--for example, a word like "spring" would be good, while a more narrow word like "cellphone" might make the promptee feel too constrained. I will cross people off as we go, and at the end, I'll make an index post, so you don't miss anything even if you don't follow both comms.

Taggable participants:

If it's good for creativity to go outside one's comfort zone, this is gonna be GREAT for me...'cause when it comes to "speed" writing I'm about as fast as RayK's turtle...but here goes, 'cause I <3 C6D and don't want to be left out of games with my fellow C6D'ers.

Best times to tag me : a Friday night, a Saturday morning or night. Worst time to tag me : day or night on a Thursday.

Let's play!

Okeydokey... I'm in. :)

Tag! You're it!

Your prompt, should you choose to use it, is "sign."

Ah. Time zones. I ought to say "Best times to tag me : a Friday night, a Saturday morning or night. Worst time to tag me : day or night on a Thursday" CENTRAL STANDARD TIME, USA.

I want to play! I can't play Tuesday-Friday this week (HONG KONG!!!!! \o/) but I'm happy to go last(ish). If there's not enough people to make this work, no worries, I'll play next time. :)

(Won't be able to go first because of timezones. My Tuesday is your Monday). ;)

I'm in, and any day should be good for me. Well, actually, I think I have plans on Wednesday so maybe not Wednesday.

Have to pass on my tag, because it's not Friday yet, so:

your prompt (from mergatrude) is 'seasons'. Happy creating!

[identity profile] how-obscure.livejournal.com 2012-05-03 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, got it!

Monday's not good, Friday's not great, anything else should be doable. Cheers.

Tag! Your turn: Prompt, if you want to use it: heat :)

[identity profile] spuffyduds.livejournal.com 2012-04-27 03:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm in! I think any day is doable, for me.

[identity profile] bghost.livejournal.com 2012-05-01 08:22 am (UTC)(link)
Boo!

I'm in! No idea what I'll make, but I'm in!

I'm going to be unavailable May 2 and 3, but I'll be around the rest of the time.

I'm a total newbie to the fannish tag games. When tagged, what starts the 24-hour clock running? The moment your name is posted as tagged, or the moment you acknowledge you've been tagged? (...'cause I'm wondering, if it's the moment the tag is posted and you don't see it for some hours because of time zone differences, well, you DON'T have 24 hours to post your fanworks.)

Good question! I don't know, as I'm not modding this one, but Luzula will be able to tell us!

In that case... tag, you're it! XD

Hm. I knew I forgot something. How about... 'Edge'

Oooh, okay! *ponders*

[identity profile] bonspiel.livejournal.com 2012-04-27 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I am game, sign me up!

I still don't understand how the tagging the next person thing will work, though. Do we just pick someone randomly from the list you will assemble?

[identity profile] mizface.livejournal.com 2012-05-06 02:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Tag - you're it! And the prompt (if you want to use it) is "fall"

[identity profile] bonspiel.livejournal.com 2012-05-07 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Missed it, sorry. I'm not usually online on Sundays. I'll wait for my next chance.

[identity profile] hsavinien.livejournal.com 2012-05-09 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
I tag you! Hope it's a better day this time. Your totally optional non-obligatory prompt is "ask".

[identity profile] bonspiel.livejournal.com 2012-05-09 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
Got it - off to have a think!

[identity profile] ride-4ever.livejournal.com 2012-05-06 03:00 pm (UTC)(link)
I was hoping to get tagged on Friday or Saturday or Sunday. I have a Monday appt with ophthamologist and will be having a procedure done that will affect my vision for at least that day, so possibly I won't be on the Net at all on Monday...and as I said on the first post in this thread, I hope that when my tag comes it's a Friday or Saturday or Sunday.

[identity profile] ride-4ever.livejournal.com 2012-05-06 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
TYK, m'dear!

[identity profile] bonspiel.livejournal.com 2012-05-10 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
I am hoping that you are up for being tagged now - your prompt, should you desire it, is "heat."

[identity profile] ride-4ever.livejournal.com 2012-05-10 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
*iz tagged*

I'm currently writing the ending for my fan_flashworks fic that has a deadline of tomorrow, then I'll jump on your "heat" prompt and have TWO fics for posting tomorrow.

*does happy adrenaline-junkie dance*

[identity profile] ride-4ever.livejournal.com 2012-05-11 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
I wrote to your prompt, "heat," and got it done just now (wrote it during my coffee-breaks and dinner-break at work). I just need a little more time to get home from work to post it from my PC, and then tag the next player.
