Spotlight On Fandoms All Over Again!
Hello helloooo. I've taken over Spotlight on Fandoms from Erin and this post is mostly stolen from her!
Look at your DVD collection. Now back to me. Now back to your comics collection. Now back to me. How many of those DVDs, comics and obsessions with fandoms you'd never even heard of a few years ago are because of this game? Unless you're new, I'm betting more than a few.
Fandom Spotlight is a chance to give your fandom a little more exposure and to sucker some more people into watching/seeing/hearing/reading it. This is all about sharing the awesome and finding new shiny things to get into.
Here's how it normally works:
Each fortnight, players from two fandoms pimp out their fandom to the whole game. You can talk about whatever you'd like: the plot, your character(s), other characters you'd like to see in game, the creators, history, future speculation and why people should watch. It can be as short or as long as you'd like. These will be posted some time over the next two weeks (whenever you get it done), giving people a chance to squee, boggle, or ask lots of questions.
One of the only provisos is that any major spoilers that haven't made it into the game:
1) Go behind a cut
2) Be clearly labeled as such
If in doubt, cut and warn please!
What do I need to do?
Volunteer! Sign up in this post if you want to do a Fandom Spotlight for your fandom (or fandoms, if you have more than one character). If you're on the list below, you do not need to re-volunteer! Unless you really want to. I don't mind.
If you share a fandom with another player/s, then there will need to be coordination between you to work out who will write/post what. You don't have to be involved if your canon-mate wants to do a spotlight and you don't, but you do have to at least sign off on being okay with them doing one. Fair's fair!
You can seek help from others familiar with your fandom who aren't actually members of it too. If you would like to help with a spotlight, please contact the members of said fandom via email to offer your services!
I also want to add a quick little note that I will send you an email if I post the RNG'd fandoms and don't hear from you either way within 24 hours to confirm, but that I won't email to remind before spotlights are due, so put it in your phone or on your calendar!
To make things easier for my poor brain, please volunteer from the journal of the character whose fandom you're signing up to do.
When does this happen?
The list of fandoms get assigned a number and then every other weekend, a Random Number Generator is consulted to figure out which two fandoms from the list of volunteers will be tapped for the following two weeks. A post will go up in the OOC comm announcing them where, if you're hit up for that week, you can let me know if you're good to go or can't do it that fortnight.
