Would you guys be happy for me to host an event in a completely different fandom using this concept? I would credit y’all for the idea of course :)

Hi - Rit here - this is an incredibly fortuitous ask as I've been working on a how-to guide for hosting your own TMA event for the last month or two that I was planning to share when it's finished!

So yes you are absolutely welcome to share the event to another fandom (amazing!), just please don't use our materials (gif banners, images for the events). If you use our rules posts / wording or guides (e.g. how to upload to AO3 collection) please clearly state the source for credit as you say ☺️

If you want to help be a beta reader for the guide send me a line on @littlerit i could use some feedback to make sure it's clear and helpful ☺️

Thanks for the ask and good luck with your event! 🧡

🎭🎭 Masqueraders Unmasked!! 🎭🎭

Thank you all to everyone who participated in TUA Masked Author round 5, '24 Summer Remix!! Whether you drew art, wrote fic, or guessed the masqueraders, we appreciate all our participants for making this event another success - and for showing their appreciation for the many fanworks our fellow fans have made over the years!

This round, we have a tie for our winners! @rockinlibrarian and @destinyandcoins each uncovered 7 masqueraders for a 41% success rate. Congratulations to both of you and enjoy your bragging rights!

We had several entries this round that fooled everyone, such as it’s just a little bit lonely in this home by coldramenn, and others which were only guessed correctly by their own authors, such as so if you see your other self... by destinyandcoins and happy birthday by Rockinlibrarian. Congratulations to our sneakiest masqueraders!

The collection has been de-anonymized! Now you all can know the names of the masqueraders who made your favorite entries, and give them the appreciation they deserve!

🎭 We will reblog our promotional posts with additional stats such as % guessed correctly over the next few weeks! 🎭
