Welcome to the first year of the Annual Fandom Games!

The Fandom Games
| Anonymous asked: youre doing this next year, yes? are you more or less going to keep the same fandoms, or mix it up? |
A year is a long time away! I don’t think any of us have been thinking a year ahead. It just turned to the new year yesterday!
| Anonymous asked: What are you going to be judging the entries on? Like originality, how well it fits the theme, writing techniques, art techniques, ... ???? Also, in fan entries i.e nontribute prompts tagged fandomgamesfun going to be featured as well in a side catagory? Mentioned at all? Or no? |
we will judge entries based on various things.
1) originality. I mean if you just gif a scene from the show and don’t make it more fun, etc, not very original you see?
2) Quality of work; is the art good? Does it look like they tried, at least? Is the writing good? edited? Is the plot continuous?
3) level of interest; did your idea completely baffle me? Make me go “omfg im crying” or “im laughing so hard” or “OH MY GOD THIS IS SO COOL”
4) general idea; our topics are broad. If you choose an idea within that topic that doesn’t really interest me, maybe I won’t enjoy it as much. But if the above are good, you have a really high chance of winning regardless of idea.
as for non tributes, yep! We have the tag “fandomgamesfun” so you can tag your work with that, and we will reblog it and tag it “nontribute” :)
| frozendeforestation asked: How are you going to make sure that the largest fandom doesn't just win by default because of their sheer size? Do you have any way to proportion it, possibly based on number of reblogs for each fandom when volunteering? |
Don’t worry, we know better than to make a fandom win because of its size. That’s why we have public voting + judges.
If an spn tribute submitted something unoriginal vs a Merlin tribute who submits sth extraordianry and creative, ill vote Merlin even tho I’m an spn fan!
| camwrites-deactivated20200626 asked: Are we gonna be able to read/watch/see what tributes submit? |
Yep! We’ll reblog them all
| Anonymous asked: Hey, if I team up with someone and I write a story and they do art that depicts the same scene does that count as one piece or two? |
TRIBUTES PLEASE ASK OFF ANON!!!!!
The answer:
That won’t be counted as an alliance. You can have the same topic, but if you have different pieces of work, they won’t be out under one work,they will be out separately.
| Anonymous asked: how many allies can you have? |
In the later rounds, when topics get harder, you can have up to 3 allies (a total group of four)
| Anonymous asked: How does a crossover work? |
a crossover means you can have two characters (or more) from two different fandoms (or more) interact together.
For example, here I wrote a dean x thor story where Dean somehow ends up in Asgard, and kind of likes Thor.
That’s a crossover because Dean and Thor are from two different stories, realms, etc, but I used my imagination to put them together.
| Anonymous asked: How can two people from different districts be allies? How can they turn in one piece? It's kind of impossible. How will that happen? Please tell me! |
a crossover.
| Anonymous asked: Do tributes have to let you know if the allieship works as one tells their followers about the other's piece of art? and also, how exactly are judges going to elect? From the lowest votes 6 pieces or from all? I hope I was clear. |
Being ally means you worked on something together, handed in ONE piece of work for both of you. And you have to tell us when you post it, say “allied with ___” sponsored by “_____”
As for judges, yes it’s lowest 6 :) we choose 2 to remain in the games.
(TRIBUTES, PLEASE ASK OFF ANON!)
| Anonymous asked: Can you post a list of official sponsors? Or are they just everyone who wants to help? |
We have a list of sponsors for the tributes located here, but they’re not the tributes’ official sponsors. Tributes can use them as help if they cannot find sponsors on their own. All tributes have to do is ask for help (or a sponsor can offer their services). It’s all up to the tributes to choose their 5 sponsors.
