July Challenge

[podfic_bingo_mod]

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

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

The shape challenge is ‘Diamond’' (tag challenge: Diamond). This should be at minimum 8 squares, ie:

		x
	x		x
x				x
	x		x
		x

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 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.

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.

Hi mods, just a heads up that you're linking to the 2017 Rules under "What are Cheats?"

I realised this because I was just hunting for the info about how comments on podfics also count as cheats (and panicking because I thought I'd made it up, hah) and couldn't find it until I realised it's mentioned in the 2021 rules!

You are completely right. >.< I don't know how we didn't notice that. I fixed the link here, and we will try to be more on top of it in future posts.

Shape challenge done! My card

Going to use my cheat to swap "freeform" with "Angst."

[podfic_bingo_mod]

Congrats on completing the challenge! Take care with the Angst.

And I've now filled the Adventure theme challenge with "Not Enough Time" using my Angst square! And I'm swapping "Dialogue-only" with "Poetry."

[podfic_bingo_mod]

Great use of your angst card swap to finish this theme!
