One day in a kingdom called the internet, llama was reading and reviewing
sshg_exchange stories and then pasting the links on her bingo cards when she realized that she had a bingo!
What to do??!
"Banana!" llama exclaimed in glee, "I have a bingo! What do I do?"
"You claim it, llama," said banana, admiring her shiny yellow jacket. "At
the prize claim post."
So llama clicked on the link in banana's explanation and posted her claim as a comment. And then llama didn't know what to do next. She was so excited she forgot to read the instructions.
"Banana! What do I do next?" She asked her nutritious little friend.
Banana sighed. "Try reading the instructions, llama."
"What instructions?" asked llama. She was ready to spit with excitement.
"The instructions at the
the prize claim post," replied banana.
"Oh!" exclaimed llama. "It says to email my completed bingo card with my prize choices to the EB mods."
"That's right," affirmed banana patiently.
Llama clicked on the prize list link. She noticed there were separate tabs for small prizes and large prizes. She had a cover up card, so she looked at the large prizes. "Darn it, someone claimed the Tim-Tams! And everything else I wanted, too! I could just spit!"
"Please don't," said banana, shrinking in her peel. "Do you like any of the small prizes?"
Llama nodded vigorously. "I'd love a drabble by Bambu or canon beta help from Drinkingcocoa-I always forget whether Hermione slapped or punched Draco in the books.But I don't have an H or an S on my card."
Banana sighed again. "You have a cover up, right?"
Llama nodded.
"Then this is what you need to do: remove the links that aren't needed to shape an H or S on your card."
"But..." llama said, absorbing banana's nutritious wisdom slowly. "Ooooooooo. I see! Then I can claim the small prize I love!"
"Exactly," said banana.
"Thank you, banana! You are so smart and so appealing in a nutritious way."
Llama turned back to her computer and edited her card, emailing it with her prize choices to the EB mods.
And banana, having seen the hungry gleam in llama's eye, quietly slipped away.
She was one very smart cookie, that banana.
