Project Hail Mary Bingo

Sign-Ups Coming July 15th!

Amaze, amaze, amaze! This is an event for any and all Project Hail Mary creators. Writers, Artists, Gif Makers and anyone and everyone else. Sign-Ups Begin: July 15th Event Begins: August 1st Event Ends: January 31st

1. How do I get a bingo?

Fill five squares horizontally, vertically, diagonally, or 4 corners + free space. If you’re feeling extra ambitious, you can go for a blackout, which means all squares on the card are filled!

2. Does the free space need a fill? 

Yes, the free space does need a fill if you are going for a bingo on a row that crosses through it, but the prompt is completely open for whatever your little heart desires! 

3. Can we use a square for a new chapter of an existing fic?

Yes! The square can only go towards the new chapter, though, and not retroactively be applied to parts of the fic you have already posted.

4. Can we collaborate/have a co-author?

Yes, absolutely! The fill requirements are the same, however each person may use one prompt from their cards. So, essentially, two prompts for the fill. 

5. Do we win anything if we get a bingo?

Just the satisfaction of a job well done! You are amaze amaze amaze!

6. Are square swaps allowed? 

Yes, square swaps will be open for one week after cards go out. You may request to swap out up to five (5) squares by filling out this form.

7. How do I sign-up?

By filling out the sign up form here!

8. Is there an age restriction for participating?

Yes, we ask that all participants be over the age of 18. 

9. What if my fill doesn’t get reblogged to the event tumblr?

Just shoot an ask to the event blog! Fills will be reblogged within a day or two, so if you don’t see it within a week, it might have just slipped through the cracks! 

10. Can I still post my fills after the event ends? 

Yes, sometimes multi-chapter works take a while, or sometimes real life gets in the way, and that’s okay! Unfortunately, late posts won’t be reblogged to the event blog. 

11. Who are the mods? And can I contact them on their personal tumblrs?

This event is run by @papermacherainbow. You are more than welcome to follow my personal, but any messages about the event should be asked to the event blog, they should all be answered within a day or two. 

No minimums at all! Write a drabble or an 100k epic! Doodle your Eridian OC or give us your 20-hour masterpiece! Anything and everything creative is welcome, all we ask is that you do not use AI.

Be sure to tag this blog in the post and also add the tag #phmbingoR1 so that your work can be reblogged and shared here on the main event blog! On AO3, be sure to add or post your work to our collection: PHM Bingo Round 1

One work per square, and it must be a new work (the only exception to this rule is podfic). Anything created prior to the start of this event can not count for a square on your card. If you are writing fic and would like to create one multi-chapter fic, you are more than welcome to do so, but each chapter must be it’s own prompt/square. 

Please use proper trigger and content warnings! Any and all content is allowed within this event, but please tag properly. If you are unsure if something should be warned for, send an ask to the main event blog. 

Combining fills with other events is a-okay! Just make sure you're meeting the other event's requirements.

Absolutely no kink shaming or ship shaming will be tolerated within this event! If you are uncomfortable with something in someone’s fill, please just block that content tag and/or user and move on.   

Absolutely NO generative AI “art” or fic will be accepted as a fill for this event.
