Thanks so much for expressing interest in judging, HelloYellow, Sind, and Tetra! We may be full up on judges at this point; I'll follow up with people over the next few days to see if I can't get a final lineup together. The theme poll will be closing exactly twenty-four hours from now! I...

Correct, there will be two each of first/second/third, one for each pool. I feel pretty confident that eight is the right number of judges, which would be two pools with four judges each, based on the number of entries we've gotten in the past. It should work fine up to about 35 entries or so...

Thanks to everyone who's volunteered to judge so far! I was apprehensive about finding enough people, but although we definitely still have spots left to fill, it's encouraging to see so much early interest! I think anything that plays around with the idea of the past and/or future of the...

One-Shot Contest 2023 Theme Poll + Judge Call One-shot contest season is upon us once again, and the first order of business is deciding what we'd like to write about this year! Thanks to everyone who shared theme ideas over Discord. If you aren't familiar with how our one-shot contests usually...

Unfortunately none of those are available at this time; final evolutions tend to be the most popular, and we only have around 100 options all told. From these four evolutionary families the only mon available is butterfree, unfortunately.

Okay, I've been going through and giving out this year's wave of companions! If you asked for a non-custom companion, you should have yours already. Unfortunately, while adding the custom companions, I discovered that we've run up against Xenforo's limit for how many options can be included in...

A bugfix where I don't actually have to do anything is my favorite kind of bugfix. :) Thanks for following up! I'm glad things are working again now. There is an add-on out there that would allow people to directly upload images to use in their signatures, if that's something people would be...

Thanks for the detailed report, @silurica , and thanks for stepping in with an answer while I was away, @Phoenixsong ! Like Phoenixsong said, the images breaking was a result of a change to the way Imgur serves its images, and while there's a way that I should be able to resolve the problem...

All right, it's been two weeks, and a lot has gone on--we've written some stories, read some stories, played some games, and had a few chats--but now at last it's time to roll on into year five! A huge thanks to everyone who hosted an event this year, to everyone who gave us new work to read and...

And that's a wrap for this year. Ten successful Blitz clears--awesome work, all of you! Thanks for taking the time to show some appreciation for your fellow writers this anniversary. And of course, now you can claim a prize! Head on over to the main anniversary thread to get that done.

Wow, loads of bingos to announce this post! Since I last updated, we've had more than fifteen new winners, including Spiteful Murkrow, Seren, ShiniGojira, MintyMimix, FauxFox, Sinderella, Inkedust, Railgun, Sastrei, seatherny, Cresselia92, JFought, Torchic W. Pip, InfiniteBakuphoon, Shiny...

Happy birthday! Hope you had an awesome day out.

It's great to see people getting really into Drabble Bingo this year! We've given out more cards than ever before, and already gotten many wonderful fills. Congratulations to RJR Basimilus, Hanafuda, Blackjack Gabbiani, Cherry_BomBees, lichhen, silurica, Windskull, System Error, and Flyg0n for...

This is a really cute idea! I love explorations of in-universe media, and I enjoy the idea of mashing up Team Charm with Charlie’s Angels. You’ve definitely captured plenty of the classic anime tropes here—the bit about the Galarian release being criticized for removing Sinnohan cultural...

Eyy, fun mix of dribbles you have here! It’s neat to see you try your hand at something a bit different with the “Rainbow” prompt! Faux in-universe stories are always a lot of fun and a good way to present worldbuilding in an engaging way. The allusions to the restoration of the Burnt Tower and...

Here's my excerpt, in case it's needed. From The Foolish Oddish:

Looking good, Bench and Torchic! @Cherry_BombBees @SparklingEspeon Please edit your posts so they either contain a link to what you’d like read or to the text itself. Unfortunately this is a Discord-only event.

Everyone’s looking good so far! Keep those reviews coming. Congratulations to Torchic for being the first person to complete the challenge this year.
