Attention, Skyeward fandom, we need your help and love! On Monday, 12 October 2015 we are going to attempt to trend Skyeward Forever [spaces, no hashtag, write it exactly as you see it here] on Twitter. There has been a lot of hopelessness going around in our fandom over the past couple of months and due to what will most likely happen in Agents of SHIELD’s next episode, we thought that it’s time to make our voices be heard and show some love for our beloved OTP.
On Monday, we will trend at 4 PM EST // 9 PM UK // 10 PM CET. To find out what that is in your timezone, you can use a Time Zone Converter. Our goal is to tweet for an hour and hopefully trend, so we highly encourage to use twitter drafts. To do that, you can either use the Twitter app for your mobile phone or install TweetDeck (works on both computer/mobile). You can draft tweets and schedule them so they will be automatically send out when the trend is taking place. This way, you can not only participate in the trend if you don’t have time to do the trend at the time, you can also do a valuably bigger amount of tweets. The more we tweet, the better the chances are that we’re going to trend. [Also, remember: retweets don’t count for trending! If you want to retweet something, either copy + paste the tweet and tweet it again or quote it!]
You can add showrunners and writers (such as Maurissa and Jed), the AoS team, the ABC Network or Chloe and Brett in your tweets, but remember to be respectful and nice to them and don’t tweet them excessively – we do not want to spam them. We want to show them in a positive way how much we care about Skyeward and that we’re still hoping for them to end up together. This trend is to spread love and positivity within our fandom, so if you tweet them, show them just as much love.
Unlock your twitter account if you have it on private and if you don’t have one yet, get one to participate in our trend.
Should you have any questions regarding our trend, feel free to shoot them at Michelle, Nathalie or Sarah. We’re hoping that many of you will participate in this!
