May I sign up to be both an author and an artist?
Wow, you're talented!  As long as you can meet the deadlines for both challenges, you are more than welcome to sign up for both.

So I can use any pairing or moresome I want, right?

I have a question would RPF be allowed?

[twinsarein]

I'm not sure. The rules from previous years don't say anything against it, but there is something about a Smallville character having to be used. As I'm just running the challenge this year, and the site doesn't belong to me, I'll contact the owner and see what she says. If she takes charge of the challenge again next year, I don't want to change something she's against. I'll get back to you when I hear from her. If it's yes, and past the deadline, I'll still let you sign up. If you want to write a story whether the answer is yes or no, then just go ahead and sign up. You aren't held to the pairing/genre information you put down anyway.

She responded fast. And, said yes. Yay! I was hoping she would. I'd love to read a 10K RPS. Is it going to be Tome and Mike?

[fruitbat00]

Yep Tom/Mike with hints of Clark/Lex.

Triggers?

I had a question about triggers.
My fic is going to have several triggers and warnings attached to it and wanted to clarify before drafts are due (which I'm really hoping I'll be on time for) in case there are betas who want to steer clear of them, should I let you know about them now or wait until the drafts are submitted?

Re: Triggers?

[twinsarein]

We have our beta post, which has about 7-10 people volunteering to beta. In that post, people have listed squicks and things they will/won't beta for. You can find someone that hasn't listed your stories triggers, and contact them, see if they are still free. The beta post is here: http://smallvillebbang.livejournal.com/19565.html

I hope this helps. Let me know if there is anything I can do.

Hello! I just had a quick question: When we do the check-ins next month, the minimum amount of words we have to submit is 8000. I... Actually have a lot more than 8000 words done (More in the realm of 20k+ O__O). Do I need to show you everything I have, or will just the first 8000-9000 words suffice?

[twinsarein]

What exciting news! The idea is to send what you have, it's just 8K is the minimum. If you have trouble sending larger documents, let me know and we can work something out.

Okay, thank you! It shouldn't be a problem.
