Hey everyone! I’m the new admin for the blog, and I’m taking a quick poll to see when would be the best time frame for everyone to run another round of the reverse bang!

Please, if you have a moment to spare answer or message with one of the following options that would best suite your schedule, starting from sign-ups opening to the first day of posting:

A: December 1st - April 30th

B: December 15th - May 31st

C: January 1st - June 15th

D: January 15th - July 15th

i’m currently in the process of finding some people to run it, but other than that i’ll leave it completely in their hands

i’m not able to run a second round due to rl commitments/mental health/feelings on teen wolf, but i’d love to pass it on to people who want to do it, especially because it was such a success~ 

HI! I’m not sure if we’re going to be doing another round. I know I (as a mod) probably won’t be able to run it (due to work/life/etc), but I’d love to be able to pass it along to loving hands who could do a round 2.

author: c-is-for-circinate (narceus on AO3) title:  And we’re starting at the end pairings: Scott & Stiles rating: T word count: 20,021 warnings: Minor character death, in that many characters are dead long before the beginning of the story.  Some canon-typical violence.  Discussion of trauma and recovery. summary:  

There are moments, more than there were a month ago, when Stiles sounds almost like himself.

“Curquitos, definitely.” Stiles brandishes the food in his hand, swiped yet again out of Scott’s cabinet, as evidence.

“Taquitos made with curry and mystery meat?” Scott asks. “That’s your pick for the greatest invention of the past eighty years?”

Yeah, this is Stiles exactly like himself. Exactly like the guy Scott’s known how to read for close to his entire life. Stiles has always, always derailed and distracted from conversations he didn’t want to have in exactly the same way. (but God, who wants to talk about spending eighty years as a brainwashed, one-armed assassin, anyway?)

well. we did it. posting for round one of the sciles reversebang has wrapped. we had 59 works in the collection for a total of 581,028 new words of sciles fic. that's over half a million words of new skittles fic. half a million. it's incredible. you guys are incredible. i cried a little bit. i'm not kidding.

i feel like i've said it a thousand times already but i'm blown away by the support everyone has shown for this bang. whether you or you wrote a 30k fic, or you drew five extra art pieces, or you just squeaked by the word count. you did something. you created something for a ship that's grown so much in the past year and a half since i became a part of fandom. 

if you asked me a year ago, with my first vague forays into a woefully lacking skittles tag, that over one hundred people would be creating such work i probably would have laughed. hard. even in october when i was making introductory posts asking for interest, i thought the numbers i set was too high. i underestimated you, skittles fandom. and you have delivered. 

i thought i would have twenty people participating, and half of them being friends that i strong-armed into it. i've been overwhelmed in the best way. 

there are a huge round of thank yous that i'm going to try to get through. thanks, first and foremost to molly, my faithful co-mod, who's sent out emails and handled check-ins. she is part of the reason i haven't torn my hair out or given up completely. 

to cece and kris, because they encouraged me when this project was still in its infancy. you should thank them for pushing me to do this in the first place. 

to all my friends who've prodded and supported this project on twitter and on skype. you've heard me rehash the same four phrases over and over and deserve my thanks

to the authors and artists and betas, there wouldn't be this challenge without you. 

to the pinch hitters, who came in at the end and wrote fics under time crunches or difficult prompts, and flourished under pressure to make sure as many prompts had fic as possible.

to anyone who's supported or promo'd or convinced their friends to participate. to the people who decided this was going to be their first fic challenge, or their first fic over 5k, or their first fic at all. to the people who usually write/draw for other pairings but decided to try skittles for this bang. my many thanks

if you haven't already you should answer this survey about the bang, your experience, and what could be done better for round two 

i don't know if i've properly expressed my gratitude for everyone making this challenge happen. i'm honored to be able to say i facilitated something so positive in fandom, even from a distance

your mod,
