3 Days until its time to leave your angsty prompts!!!



Comes February the 1. it's time to finally leave your prompts!!!


So here you go with the prompt-form and an opportunity to check out the (sadly still confusing) rules again:



Prompter:
Suggested Characters/Pairings:
Prompt:
Please do's:
Please don'ts:
Additional Infos:

Here is the take-away form:




I shall endeavor to put all the prompting-posts online on the 1. 00.10 CET.
Here is a handy tool to convert to your time-zone.



Prompting and Claiming

I know this sounds difficult and really confusing and messy, BUT I do have a system in mind that should help us all find the prompts we are looking for more easily and should also help with finding fics we would like to read, so I beg you to please bear with me. Thank you.



  • There is a month of prompting!

    Please note there will be 4 different PROMPTING posts (don't worry if you get it wrong on the first try- I will do my utter best to help you through my confusing system):



    1. for All before Trio- Era

      (from the Founders through Dumbledore, Riddle, the Lestranges, Snape all the way down to Tonks ect., ect)


    2. for Trio Era (aka the one the book describes, aka Harry's)


    3. for Next- Generation Era


    4. for Cross-Era







    Note: Era here means Hogwarts- School- Generation:

    For example: Percy, Fred, George and Ron are in the same Era;

    also: Bill, Charlie, Tonks, Lupin, Dumbledore, and Helga Hufflepuff are in the same Era- as they all left school (or were building it) before Harry went into school.


  • If you want to make a prompt along the lines of: "Character A and Character B do blah blah blah..."
    (meaning that it's not the character, who is important but rather what is happening )
    then you have 2 options:



    1. Post it on the era- prompting post where you would like it to see the most .


    2. Or you can post it in all the prompting posts at the same time.


    You can do it whichever way you like.


  • Regarding Gen- Prompts the same rules apply:



    1. You post your Prompt in the Era you want your Main-Character to come from - and the author to focus on that character, and the characters point of view.


    2. Or you post it in all the Prompting - Posts it would fit


    Example: Gen: Mrs. Figg watching over Harry, through the years --> would go into both Cross-Era as a mentor prompt, or into All before Trio as a character focusing prompt, so that we may learn more about her, and how she lives, and what's up with her cats


  • Animals belong to the Era of their owners. But yes, you can prompt about animals too.


  • Self - prompting is totally allowed- but your prompt must be posted during the month of prompting in the right prompting post.


  • Each prompt can be claimed numerous times. Later, there will be a mod-comment on each taken prompt linking it to the work(s) created for it.


  • The Rule above makes it necessary to limit one prompt per comment! Otherwise it will get really confusing.


  • This also means you can take a prompt from round 2 in round (let's be positive here) 4.


  • Please note as part of this com's rules, you can't decide how your prompt will be taken and what will be made with it. Anything is a GO as long as it does not go against your prompt.




Additionally: for this first round ever you are allowed to leave up to 15 prompts! If the mood should strike you to do so!




I'm so excited! Hopefully you are too!
