May Challenge!

[analise010]

This month we have two challenges for you: The theme challenge 'Pets/Animals' (Please include the tag challenge: animals when you post.) and the shape challenge ‘“L” Shape (2x2)' (tag challenge: 2x2 L). 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.

Theme Challenges:
Theme challenges have to do with fic choice. Since this month's challenge is 'Pets/Animals' your story has to be related to that theme one way or another. If you complete 1 theme challenge you’ll get a cheat.

Shape Challenges:
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 diagonal before the challenge starts, you don’t have to get a whole new set of 3 squares in the shape of a diagonal. You do however have to complete at least one square this month for it to count.

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.

I DID IT!!!!

I was so angry when I realized *last month* that I a TON of 2x2 squares and no diagonal! This month, I decided to expand on my 2x2 L, so there's a giant L in the bottom right hand corner of my bingo card*. You can find my bingo card over here

*I added the "read animatedly" square this morning.

\o/ Go Team Go! You have earned a cheat! (I hope you gave it to yourself)

completed the 2x2 L challenge! my bingo card is over here - i filled non-linear story a little while ago, but i filled incorporate music and female character this month.

[analise010]

YAY! You've earned a cheat! Feel free shift or swap out squares at will.

Hmmmmm... how loose can the interpretation of "animals" as a theme be? Cause, I mean, werewolves are technically all part animal, and in the Steter podfic I just posted, Stiles refers to Peter's animalistic nature several times... Would that count? :D

[fire_juggler]

Sure thing! We encourage liberal interpretation of prompts! ♥

[thilia]

Excellent! Added the tag to the post. ♥

Cheating is always fun! You can swap two squares on your car or shift two squares to put one wherever you want it. :)

[analise010]

Sorry, the mods here don't give cheats for podfics that are too perfect. Better luck next time. *sips mojito*

[fire_juggler]

YOU ARE THE WORST EVER! THE WORST! YOU OWE ME A MOJITO!

[fire_juggler]

Seriously, a mojito sounds so freaking good right now.

[analise010]

Well, if those are the stakes, please take all the cheats you like. Analise010 doesn't share rum.

Feel free to shift or swap out any square you like. :)

AHA! Now I know your fatal weakness. *scurries off with cheat*
