What is a Mini/Big Bang?

Last month the mods of this blog ran a general interest poll to decide what type of event to run. The votes were split fairly evenly between a Big Bang, and a Mini Bang, and we decided to run a combo event.

How will this work?

There will be two tracks for participants to choose from; a Mini Bang or a Big Bang. Whichever track is picked, will determine the timeline and requirements of their challenge.

Mini Bang Track Requirements:

Mini Bang Writers will be required to submit a fic that is between 10k and 20k words.

Mini Bang Artists will be matched with a Mini Bang Writer and be required to submit between 1 and 3 pieces of art based on the fic.

Big Bang Track Requirements:

Big Bang Writers will be required to submit a fic of minimum 40k words, with no maximum word count.

Big Bang Artists will be matched with a Big Bang Writer and be required to submit between 2 and 5 pieces of art based on the fic.

As of right now, we are only allowing one sign up per person. However that might change if we need to balance the number of writers and artists.

Accepted Types of Art:

Traditional art as long as you are able to submit a high quality scan

Hand drawn digital art

Photo edits/manipulations

GIFs

How we Define a Rarepair:

Any ship that has under 5k works on AO3, excluding cross over works. We are excluding cross over works to account for things like kinktober where the rare pair gets maybe five hundred words of focus.

If you voted in our polls you might have noticed originally we said under 10k fics, but we didn’t realize how much sterek’s popularity skewed the results. To account for such a juggernaut ship, we moved the limit down.

Schedule:

All Writer Sign Ups Open: March 1

All Artist Sign Ups Open: April 3

All Sign Ups Close: May 3

All Writers First Check-In, and Summary Due: May 10

Summaries Posted for Browsing: May 13

Summary Claiming: May 27

All Artists First Check In/All Writers Second Check In: July 1

Mini Bang Start Posting: August 1

Last Check In for Big Bang Participants: August 17

Big Bang Start Posting: September 1

We are leaving sign ups open until a week before the first check in. This is to allow writers a chance to get a head start on their fics, and hopefully reduce the number of writers who have to back out due to unforeseen circumstances.

Have someone you want to work with in mind already?

We are allowing for a writer and artist to sign up as a pre-matched pair! So if you and your mutual want that push to finally work together, you can sign up as a unit.

Rules:

No AI. If a participant is caught using AI, they will be blocked and banned.

The ship you are creating for must have less than 5k works on AO3 (excluding crossovers)

All works must be tagged accurately at the time of summary, and when posting to AO3. (If the tags change between summary and posting, that is fine.)

If you are interested:

Follow this blog! We will be posting updates and silly event promo posters we made on this blog. We will also be posting the links to sign ups at the start of March.

And be sure to reblog this post to get the word out!

We’re really excited to run this event and we hope to see you all there!

Everything!!

-from them canonically being ( alpha and omega )

-the tension in their dynamic ~that can be written in so many great ways

-how their personalities are totally different ( it gives me the sunshine character x the grumpy dark character )

-how Peter was possessive and wanted Scott

-power plays 

-all the down to the age gap

Hey all! To round out the Best Teen Wolf Rarepair ship tournament, I'm going to give the rankings of how every Rarepair ship placed of the 128 Teen Wolf Rarepair Ships in it. How I'm ranking them is going by the rounds. So the Rarepair ships that didn't make it past the first round are the lowest, then second, third round etc - within each round, they're ranked by how many or few votes they got.

So if a Rarepair ship made it past the first round, I'll put their total votes just to see how many they got throughout the whole competition, and just for those who might be curious - but total votes don't have any bearing on their placements. So one Rarepair ship might have gotten a lot one round and very few the next round, but have more total votes than the Rarepair ship ranked above them because that Rarepair ship got more votes the second round.

I know this ranking isn't full proof, but I'm just doing this for fun, so again let's not take it too seriously. This way just made the most sense for how each Rarepair ship should be ranked. Also I will highlight a Rarepair ship's vote count red to indicate that it was eliminated that round.

So, without further ado, the rankings! Part 3 😁 (Part 1)(Part 2)

#80-#61

(*There are quite a bit of ties up until about the round 3 rankings, so be aware of that. Most are two way ties, but there are a few 3 way ties as well. Thankfully no ties more than 3, though.)
