Cycle 11 Sign-ups!
Here we are, once again, for sign-ups :D/
Thank you for those who participated in our Winter Remix poll. Based on the results/interest, we're going to move forward tentatively. Depending on how sign-ups go for the next two weeks, we may or may not have to cancel this round.
But until then...Cycle 11 is here! Bring it on!
Pimp it!
Before you sign up, please remember this:
1)In order to qualify for the remix, writers must have a minimum of 3 complete fics with minimum 500 words each. These fics should not be original character-centric. Collaborations do not count towards this minimum.
2) Stories that are incomplete and are collaborations automatically don't count. So you can use your safe story on a fic that is outside those categories (like a story you finished but would rather not have remixed). You can put down any story you want... it just makes no sense to give immunity to a story that can't be remixed anyway.
3) Remixes have to be at least 1,000 words.
Finally, the sign up form!

Telephone Challenge?*
*In case you missed the explanation from our past few sign-ups -When you say "YES" to The Telephone Challenge, you're allowing someone else to remix a remix of your original story.
For example: YOU wrote "THIS."
AA remixed it into "THAT."
YOU are now signing up for Cycle 7, and answered "yes" to the Telephone Challenge.
BB is now allowed to remix AA's "THAT," which is a remix of your story.
If you say "NO," to the Telephone Challenge, BB will NOT be able to remix "THAT."
!!! ALSO, keep in mind, we are considering this answer as your default answer for the following cycle, even if you are not participating. So, if you've already answered the Telephone Challenge question, don't worry about it. We've got the records. You may, of course, change your mind at this time or during sign-ups for the next cycle, and you can notify us then.
If you're interested in remixing a remix but the original author is not participating this cycle, please contact the mods and we will ask them for you. If they can't be contacted, it's up to your discretion whether or not to do the Telephone challenge.
You can also remix stories that have previously been remixed, so almost anything goes!
