may challenges: weather + triangle

[podfic_bingo_mod]

The theme challenge for this month is 'Weather' (Please include the tag challenge: weather when you post.)

Theme challenges have to do with fic choice. Since this month's challenge is 'Weather' your story has to be related to that theme one way or another.

The shape challenge is ‘Triangle (3 squares)' (tag challenge: triangle).

Shape challenges require that you complete a specific shape of squares on your card. If you complete a shape challenge by the deadline, you’ll win a cheat. If your card already has the shape formation that fits the monthly challenge before the challenge starts, you can only count that challenge as completed if you fill at least one square on your card within the challenge time period. So if you already have a triangle before the challenge starts, you don’t have to get a whole new set of 3 squares. You do however have to complete at least one square this month for it to count.

You can pick the challenge you prefer or do both if you're feeling ambitious. Once you’ve posted the podfic required to fulfill the monthly challenge, please comment here to let us know you’ve completed the challenge.

If you complete a challenge, you earn a cheat. If none of the challenges appeal to you, you can also earn cheats by commenting on other people's podfics.

What are Cheats?
Cheats are rewards that allow participants to manipulate their cards so that they can be finished more easily.
There are 2 kinds of cheats: shifting squares and swapping out squares.
Shifting squares allows participants to swap locations of two squares on their card.
Swapping out cheats allow you to discard one of your prompts entirely from your card and replace it with a prompt of your choosing from the Prompt List.

Is this shape the same as a 3-square V ? (Not saying that would be a bad thing - I'm just wondering if there's something I'm missing.)

[podfic_bingo_mod]

It's basically an upside-down V?

OOXOO
OXOXO
OOOOO

Like that? Did that help? :D

[eafay70]

It does, thank you!!

This is my first time doing podfic bingo and I'm a little confused by this challenge. Is the theme weather, space, or both? And I have a similar question to eafay70. What would the triangle shape look like on my card?

Thank you!

[podfic_bingo_mod]

The Space was a mistype (as we copy and paste our monthly challenges, just to cut back on the work we need to do). The challenge this month is weather! :D As for the shape, it's basically an upside-down V?

OOXOO

Like that? Did that help? :D

I've fulfilled the theme challenge, as well as the shape challenge (with Boy Slash, Incorporate Music, and Collaborative/Multiple/Gang)! Using my cheats to swap out "Try an Accent" with "Write and record your own story," and "Splice Fics Together" with "Random Fic."

My updated card is here. :D
