It’s almost time to sign up for 007 Fest!
007 Fest is a month-long July celebration of all things Bond! This year marks our 10th Fest!
This year, the storyline we are following is dueling conferences. Agencies from all over the world are coming together in the spirit of cooperation and trust. It’s JELLYFISH Con!
For four days, agencies will show off their new tech, brag about the skills of their agents, showcase anything and everything. The goal? To form new alliances between agencies, inter-agency agent partnerships that can be called upon in times of need.
Everything is a little tense when trying to get naturally suspicious people to work together, but the biggest challenge might not be anything anyone predicted. It might be the convention happening on the floor below theirs: The International Mystery Writers Convention.
It's up to you, the support staff, the hotel staff, the B team who make things run smoothly to ensure that's what happens this time, too. When you sign up for Fest, start thinking about how you want to fit into this world. It's not critical, but there are some fun bonus challenges that build on some role play elements. Don't worry about which agency you might be a part of; we will be assigning time-zone-based stations for Fest depending on the demographics of sign ups.
During July, decide on your goals at the beginning of each week in July. Completing these weekly goals helps save the conference from that week’s threat! (But if you don’t complete them…well…maybe your station’s part of the conference ends up a little more lava-covered than it was before…yes, even though you’re not anywhere near a volcano… Luckily, you can help each other out!)
More info on our wordpress or our tumblr post.
I don’t write or art! Can I still participate?
Absolutely! If you want, you can only make social goals—hosting or joining watch parties or Discord chats, for example.
We also have fun immersive goals/scavenger hunt activities that don’t involve writing or arting.
Additionally, the ‘creative’ goals don’t have to involve fanfic or fanart; if your weekly goal is to make 5 James Bond memes or three headcanons, we support that!
And if you want to make a “hold my beer” level of goal, we also offer prompt tables and other challenges!
You can also participate without goals during certain weeks or the whole month if you want! 007 Fest is as chill or as high-key as you want to make it.
Sign-ups are open June 1st until June 15! Just fill out the form (forthcoming in a reblog) and we’ll contact you around June 18 so you can meet your team. If you’d like to onboard after that, you can, it will just take the mods a little longer.
We look forward to saving the world with you in July! :D
