Merlin big bang challenge.

[the_muppet]

I've been trying to contact the maintainers of boxofmagic through email and PM's to find out if it's running this year but have had no reply from any of them.

I'm still hopeful that one of them will reply and that boxofmagic itself will run this year, but if not, would anyone here be interested if I set up another Merlin fic big bang challenge community?

Just generally really asking what support there would be for such a community and what interest there would be in participating. So am going to include a poll below and also leave this post open so that those of you who are interested in this idea - in whatever capacity - could perhaps ask their own flists to consider this and then point them in the direction of the poll. So feel free to please ask your own flisters if they're interested and ask them to vote too so we can get a better idea if this is wanted or not; thank you =)

What I absolutely do not want to do is tread on anyone's toes here, and obviously what would make me happiest is if boxofmagic itself ran again this year. However if that can't happen for whatever reason, I'd like to try and enable some kind of Merlin big bang challenge to take place if I can.

I will offer cheerleading services.

Having never run a big bang, but having seen that before, can you explain to me what it entails?

[vexed_wench]

people will offer encouragement and what ever the artist/author needs.
Not so much beta as you can do it!!!!

Offer feed back or bounce ideas off of if the author wants, basically what ever you can/will do to make the author happy and make it easier on them. I don't think it is a set thing it tends to differ from author to author I have some friends that just want hey you can do it!! Other want to bounce ideas around.

Hope that makes sense, just please ask people what they prefer to read so they can cheer honestly. I love Arthur/Merlin and would not be as good cheering for a Arthur/Gwen ( unless it starts that way and ends with my boys).

Sorry if I rambled if I lost you anywhere just holler.

That's basically what I assumed it was, so thanks for the explanation =)
