CHALLENGE 01!



Activity: Moments from a (Friend) Ship
Deadline: Sunday, February 19 at 9p EST//2a UTC. Countdown here.
Points: 50 points + bonus points for icons or sigtags & comments
Summary: Put together - either by fic, icon, gif, picspam or video - an ode to your favorite on-screen friendship.

This challenge is a bit of a take-off on the I Ship It challenge, one because people seemed to like that but also because a couple people asked if we could do one like it with friendships for this new phase. So, we are. It's going to take a little work, but you have three weeks.

As much as Grey's and Private Practice focus on relationships, there is just as much emphasis on friendships. So in this challenge, we're going to celebrate those friendships.

For this challenge, you can make a picspam, you can make icons, you can make gifs, you can make a video, you can write a fic or you can write a bunch of drabbles. It's up to you. The only stipulation is you pick one friendship you love (and it doesn't have to be just between two people. You can do the Fab 5 or Addison/Derek/Mark as examples) and illustrate the moments that made you love them.

In addition to whatever you decide to make, you also need to include a 200-word explanation on why you picked this certain friendship.

There is one stipulation, though: Although I am not going to prohibit you from using people who are also romantic ships (although I do discourage you from using couples you ship romantically), you need to make sure this challenge focuses on what you love about them as friends and not as anything other than that. (And as such, try to stay away from the friends with benefits part as well.)

Here are the points values (the 200-word explanation is worth 10 points):

• Picspams: 40 caps (1 point per cap)
• Icons: 20 icons (2 points per icon)
• Gifs: 10 gifs (4 points per gif)
• Fics/drabbles: 2,000 words total (50 words per point)
• Videos: About 90 seconds (someone who does videos, tell me if that seems fair)

You can mix and match. If I forgot to include something, let me know. Partial points are available.

Post your finished project to theoncallroom, but make sure you link to your post here in your team threads!

Make sure to sign your link in your team thread with your team sigtag or icon if you want bonus points.

As with the ships challenge, feel free to get creative! There isn't a set way to do this.
