56 respondents! Thank you!

Our Interest Check closed today and oh wow, what an overwhelming response from y’all! We’re so stoked to open sign-ups and the Discord on Saturday (noon EST), especially now we know that people like our funky little idea :D

Thank you again so much for filling out the form, and for asking questions! Our inbox remains open, and we’ll have an ask mods channel in the discord as well :)

may i ask if there’s a limit to how many prompts/fics

Each person, at sign-up, will post three prompts for others to fulfil. There's no limit to how many fics you can write, though there will be an incentive to write prompts that no people on your team have written for

[ficbox-event]

The interest check deadline is on the 7th of September, the sign-ups will be open from the 10th to the 28th, then the event will run for the month of October.

Questions & Answers

Why during October?  - This is a trial event - we’ve never run this before, and so we’d rather run the event and get some fics written and some feedback sooner rather than later - there will definitely be more events in the future, placed away from busier months. For now though, this event will last through October.

Where will the event happen?  - Posting will be on Ao3 (we will have a collection), and communication will mainly be through our Discord. The link to this server will be on the Sign-up form releasing September 10th.

How is this event Jackbox inspired?  - Loosely inspired by a game like Quiplash, it shows in how some of the points are awarded both on using other peoples’ prompts, fulfilling challenges, as well as gaining points from others using your prompts. So there will be no time limit aside from the event duration, which is a month. Will other forms of fanwork be allowed?  - For now, it’s a fic only event.

What is the point of the teams?  - There will be 4 teams, and you will compete alongside your team to fulfil prompts from the opposing teams - inspired by fic fights. Additionally, there will be team challenges for each team to incorporate into their fics!

How do the points work, and how are they awarded?  - The points will be awarded based on the length of fic published, and you can get bonus points from certain challenges or prompts.

How will prompts be distributed?  - They won't be! For this event, we plan to have a spreadsheet of every prompt given by the other teams to chose from.

For any further questions, please send us an ask!

For any specific event details, please join the Discord, for which the link will be shared along with the sign-ups!
