Merlin big bang challenge

[the_muppet]

As a follow-on from this poll I have now heard from the mod over at boxofmagic and sadly it will not now be running this year.

I am in the process of trying to set something up - either taking over boxofmagic (awaiting mod permission) or setting up a different Big Bang comm - so if anyone is still interested please let me know! I don't have the time right now to cross-post this information and I want to get things running ASAP so feel free to spread the word and link to this post for now if anyone has any input they'd like to share.

Also feel free to leave any ideas & suggestions here, including a new community name in case we need to start from scratch; thank you ♥


EDIT: You new Merlin Big Bang challenge is being set up right now and will hopefully be launched on Friday; thank you ♥

Hey, I'm in to help in whatever way you need. Do you need a co-mod? Someone to help with banners for pimping? Someone to help write rules and a schedule?

I definitely think the word count should be relatively low, because I don't think that people are going to be able to get 35k or 40k fics done in the amount of time available, and it seems like a pretty big concern for people that the bb go live before S3 starts airing in the UK.

Seriously, whatever you need me for, let me know. PM me or whatever, ok?

Yeah, seconding that on the word count. Something like 20 or 25,000 and up, maybe?

Had already got there, don't worry! I realise that with the shorter time-frame we've got we'll need to less ambitious so was thinking of a minimum 20,000 word count.
