Ahhh.... I was going to offer an optional theme but totally forgot to put it in the post or the rules!

Yes, there will be an OPTIONAL theme. Look for it on the post/rules tomorrow night. Thanks for bringing up this important question.

1) Can you enter in the Commenter contest if you already enter the Fanworks or is it just for people who aren't entering in the other categories?

2) So if I read right, the fanwork submitted must not have been posted anywhere before...so for cosplay does that mean we have to make a costume specifically for this contest as well? And can't enter a costume we've already worn?

To offer your services as a Beta hang_nga_79 July 7 2008, 03:51:35 UTC
Please reply to this comment (stay in this thread) to post about offering your services as a beta for contestants. Contestants may read this thread to find a beta. Note, this is not the thread that betas must post in to get their beta work to count as a contest entry -it's only a place to hook betas up with writers. Please see the contest qualification post [ HERE] instead to find out how to make sure your beta work as counted as an entry.

The following areas should be addressed by Betas' in their comment 'posts':

  • Fanfiction willing to beta: list genres, ratings, pairings, spoilers up to chapter/anime? etc, anything you think is relevant, which you will beta.
  • Fanfiction NOT willing to beta: list genres, ratings, pairings, spoilers up to chapter/anime? etc, anything you think is relevant, which you will NOT beta.
  • Your strengths/things you enjoy as a beta (finding plot holes, characterization, grammar, etc...) or experience or anything else you think will be relevant.
  • Contact: method that an interested fanfic writer should contact you ( ... )

    To offer your services as a volunteer hang_nga_79 July 7 2008, 04:00:23 UTC
    I will be editing this post to give a list of volunteer positions open. Please only reply to this thread once I have put up a list of positions. Please also visit the website here to read the contest general rules and volunteer rules if you wish to enter the contest by volunteering.

    I would like to thank everyone that volunteers for helping me make this contest run smoothly -your generosity is really appreciated!

    ETA: For all volunteer positions: if you would like to work with someone you know, even if the position only asks for one person, I do not mind pairing you up. I just don't want to pair up strangers as it could cause difficulties. If you pair up with someone, both people can still use the volunteer experience to qualify for contest entry, if they want.

    Volunteer Positions Open:

    Layout/Graphics/Coding:
    1. DESIGN THE WEBSITE ARCHIVE
    2. Two people with CSS knowledge are needed to build the archive templates for the contest website ( ... )

    MORE VOLUNTEER POSITIONS...

    Translation:

    1. TRANSLATE AN UN-SCANLATED DOUJINSHI.
    2. Japanese translators needed to provide scripts of 'gently scanned/digitally photographed' doujinshi -not high quality enough for scanlation purposes) to provide prize-winners with at least a rough translation of the dialogue in their new doujinshi. You only need to translate 1 doujinshi, but you may volunteer to do as many as you want. I have no knowledge of Japanese, so please be fair to me and only volunteer if you honestly think you can do a decent job translating since I won't be able to evaluate you myself.

      The following doujinshi are untranslated/unscanlated:
      Rhapsody in Blue
      unknown title (?Kui)
      unknown title 2 (?Suwiitobaioshitto)
      10 Minutes Later
      Bad Communication
      Dance with a Vampire
      Kimi ga Nemuru 1
      Kimi ga Nemuru 2
      Nothing But
      Snow Bloom

      If you would like to volunteer, please tell me your experience with Japanese and/or translation work, and the best way to contact you.
