Ray Vecchio's Birthday Challenge!

[doodlesinsand.livejournal.com]

So it was established in episode 2 of season 3 of due South–otherwise known as “Eclipse”, otherwise known as the one where Welsh bobs for trout–that RayV’s birthday is on September 21. Thus, on that day in just a few short weeks, the dS virtual bar invites you to kick back with the “Big Man on Mulberry Street” vid and celebrate all things RayV! More specific information can be found below the cut, but for now, just know that his birthday is fast approaching and we’d love to be able to do something for it! Pretty much whatever you feel inspired to do–make posts about RayV that day! Write a fic! Come up with a RayV rec list! Pictures of RayV in various party hats! etc–would be amazing and much appreciated.

     

• I will make a collection on AO3 for anyone & everyone who wants to participate there--watch our comm and/or tumblr for a link as Sept 21 gets closer! Please also use the tag “dsvb challenge” so I can easily find your works in case there are any problems.


• Any posts made to tumblr using the tag “Ray Vecchio Day” or “dsvb challenge” will be reblogged by the network blog (tumblr version of a comm, essentially) periodically throughout the day.


• You can also submit works or links to works on other sites to the network blog & we will publish them for you! Or you can directly post to our lj comm, if you find that preferable.


• If none of the above options work, you can always send it directly to me! Either comment on this post with the necessary info or ask me for an email address to send things to a day or so in advance.


• I will amass a masterpost as the day begins to wind down and post it here, on our tumblr network blog, and to our lj comm. Please PLEASE have things up by 8pm MDT (3am GMT) if you want them to show up in the masterpost at the end of the day! If they’re late, they will be added the following day.

Once again, please feel free to make anything & everything you want that’s Ray Vecchio themed! All sorts of things are welcome; the only stipulation is that they must be intended to celebrate RayV or at a stretch David Marciano, must be shareable online in some way (did you knit something or bake a cake? Snap a pic, tell us about it! But it doesn’t count if you, say, went to the park and had a RayV party and vaguely mention that you did so on twitter), and must not be offensive or derogatory. Anything that violates these guidelines will not be included in the masterpost, sorry folks! If you have any questions, please feel free to comment below or contact me via the network blog (dsvirtualbar) or on twitter (thisaintbc).

Thanks! I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with!
