Question: Can you only fill one prompt at a time with each thing you write, or can you fill two (or more) prompts within one story/extract/whatever?
I just ask because I've seen other story bingo things like this where people seem to have done :P

One prompt per story, yes. We'll also say this on our claim instructions post closer to October. Thanks for mentioning it!

Do we want to say that you can use a story for both your myshuno card and regular daily simspiration? Because you could use both prompts to write one story. I get that we want 24 stories to get blackout, but do we want them usable for other stuff as well?

Oh yeah, I think that's fine. Just no on the using two Myshuno! prompts on the same piece. It has to be twenty-four separate pieces.

Yeah, that's what I figured.

Another question: what about cowrites? Do those count? Are those possible?

BRAINSHARE. Damn it, so THAT'S where my brain's been all morning.

I want to say that cowrites are allowed and encouraged, and that each writer can claim one of their card prompts for a cowrite. But no more than one per person for the piece.

BRAINSHARE FTW?

Sorry I stole the brain!

What do you mean by one per person? One per card? Or I can do one cowrite with you, one with Cait, and one with De, and they all count, but I can't do two with you?

No no. Let's say you and I do a cowrite. We can each claim one prompt from our card for that piece. If we do another one later, we can claim one more prompt each for the new piece.

So basically, one prompt per person per piece.

Oh, okay, so basically following the one prompt per story rule, but turning it into one prompt per card per story - or, as you said, one prompt per person per piece...which we totally need to use. :P

So it can fulfill two prompts...as long as they're on separate cards and written by both writers.
