FemmeRemix 2016
Hello everyone, FemmeRemix 2016 is here! Last year was a great success, and we want to do even better with the sophomore run!
We are making a few modifications to the way things will be run (detailed below), hopefully for the better.
For now, here is the calendar for the upcoming challenge (exact times TBA):
- Nominations April 24-May 8
- Sign-Ups May 13-28
- Assignments Out no later than June 5
- Assignments Due July 24
- Stories Live July 31
You'll notice that this year there will be official nominations. The lack of these last year was an oversight on my part, which was partly induced by wanting to get the challenge running as quickly as possible. This worked fairly well, but did have a couple of hiccups. So we're trying out official nominations this year.
That said, sincefemmeremix has some specific requirements for Qualified Fandoms for matching, we are asking that you only nominate fandoms in which you qualify for the challenge (IE, fandoms in which you have written 5 or more stories about women of 100+ words or 3 or more stories about women of 500+ words). Our intention is to ensure that we are able to match you with a remixer who can write in at least one of your fandoms and that you have enough stories that they will have several to choose from. By limiting the nominations to qualifying fandoms we will hopefully be able to match everyone with very little jerry-rigging.
The other planned change is that anyone who is defaulted by the mods at the July 24 due date will be banned from participating in future remixes. This includes anyone who submits an incomplete and/or placeholder story. It does not include people who have been granted extensions prior to the deadline.
If you have any questions, please comment on this post.
