Alopex Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Don't have a heart attack, anyone. We do have a break, as Round 2 does not begin until Saturday the 16th (by 5 p.m. GMT the latest). Going into this round, we have some important changes/reminders/information to share. In order to avoid confusion with the cards, we are going to deliver them directly to your common rooms. Please start a round 2 thread in your CR before Saturday so we can deliver the cards to it. Because the special patterns were meant to spread points among houses (we thought the spacing out of tasks would allow houses to work at a fairly similar pace, but that's not how round 1 went), we have decided that only one special pattern may be claimed per card (not counting the blackout/coverall). This has been edited into the rules thread. The more organized your list (I know it's hard with multiple cards and task types), the more easily staff can check it. When you MAGIC (special pattern or blackout/coverall), please indicate which card (linking to a list where it's obvious is fine...we just want to know which of your cards to check). Gameplay - I think you've all figured this out by now, but if not: Spoiler Staff will use this thread to call out numbers and their associated tasks You will work in your common rooms to complete the tasks that appear on your cards - if a task appears on more than one card, you only need to complete it once You do not need to play all your cards if you prefer to concentrate on just one, nor do you have to complete the tasks in order Post in the rules thread with questions To claim an additional card(s), post in this thread If you get a special pattern or the blackout/coverall, post "MAGIC" in this thread If you're using a continuously edited spreadsheet to keep track of your tasks, please screenshot when MAGIC-ing as proof you had it all done at the time you shouted The round ends when a house gets the blackout/coverall Reminder of Lengths (same as first round): Spoiler Reviews should be 1000 characters minimum (including spaces) Exceptions: very short pieces such as drabbles or poems should have reviews equal to half the piece's character count) Posts on the forum should be 1000 characters where possible. This includes blog entries. Topics where it's hard to add much (not much discussion happening) should be a robust 5-sentence paragraph Topics or tasks such as status updates, posting a list of questions, participating in a game, etc. obviously don't need to be 1000 characters long Writing tasks should also be 1000 characters. If it says "write about" or "write a story" it is not necessary to write more than 1000 characters--though you may if you wish. If you choose to submit to the queue, it does not need to be validated before it counts You are not required to submit to the queue if you believe there is a more appropriate place to post your piece. If you aren't sure at all where to put it, making sure to post it in your common room will suffice. This round's special patterns have the theme of magical objects! They are as follows: Spoiler Goblet: Sorting Hat: Timeturner: Wand: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
