@checkmatingweek2021

Welcome to Checkmating Week!! Thank you for showing interest in this week, that we have been working to put together to continue to celebrate the ship between Weiss and Blake of RWBY.

Our interest poll is ongoing, which you can find by clicking here!

Hehe like the new banner?? Thank u Mod Aliza :D

Good morning, afternoon or night to all you checkmate fans! Today we bring you the next stage of Checkmating Week, and once again we want to hear from YOU!

THE PROMPT POLL HAS ARRIVED

ANYWAY for this poll we ask you to choose the seven prompts that you want to see in Checkmating Week. Mods have tried to make sure to include all the suggestions given to us, and more of our favourites. However, in order to curate an original week, we have not included any repeats from the last years.

This poll will be running until the 25th of August, so please vote fast!

OH, AND ONE FINAL UPDATE?

We have chosen to host Checkmating Week in early October, due to popular demand. We have searched to make sure that this doesn't overlap with other ship weeks, but have no specific week set in stone yet. If possible, please inform mods of any other ship weeks happening in early October, so we can avoid them.

Hello everyone!

Thank you all for so many amazing prompts, the poll is now closed. In the next poll you will be voting from a list of prompts, the seven with the most votes will be the ones for checkmating week 2021.
