Further to yesterday's post ...

[personal profile] empress_jae  and I have been nutting out some of the details. A few things are becoming apparent. Firstly, we will almost certainly need a few more mods scattered around the world's time zones. Anyone keen?

Secondly, we're looking at ways of managing the tag team fic and crack drabbles. All of them boil down to moderated or un-moderated. Does anyone have any firm and unyielding opinions on the joys or evils of moderation?

Finally, the con itself runs Thursday to Monday. Do we want to go that long, or stop on Sunday?

Once we've finished working out what we're doing, we'll advertise the comm and anyone can come to play!

Not in different time zones or anything but I'll be around to help out with whatever needs doing as long as I know what. :)

I'm available to lend a hand. I'm around 1pm GMT to 8pm GMT Thursday and Friday and Monday. And a wee bit otherwise.

but if that's too sporadic, no problem. I'm happy to just pimp and participate. ;)

I can help, if you like! :)

I can volunteer to do whatever on either Thurs or Sat.

Just let me know what's needed, and hopefully I'll have a clue how to do it.

I have no idea what you're on about, but if it's time limited helpfulness I'm sure I can chip in.

I'm pretty much free all day Saturday and Sunday (yes, I have no life) so give me a shout if I can help at all.

Here to offer help. It's okay if you don't need me. (But can I just cast my vote to have it extended until Monday? I figured, the longer the better, actually...)

Hiya - I can do UK timezone. I'm not in front of my computer 24/7, well that's a complete lie, but some of that time I should be working. I have 2 birthday parties and a family revel on Saturday, but otherwise I'm keen to help. No idea how a drabble fest or tag-team fic might be moderated, but I can cut and paste and manage limited html and I can tell people to 'play nicely' in my best Head Girl voice...

Do we need a fixed end date really? Is there going to be a sort of grand reveal type thing? If not, I'd have thought that we could just hold the thing nominally in place of Az but if it dribbled into the following week, no biggie?

Do you need an icon - what would you like?

I'm voting for extending it through to Monday. :3 I'm in the Eastern United States, so that may be helpful, since I'll be awake when Australia is asleep.

I don't have any event-organizing experience, but I'm a fast learner. :)

Monday's good. 8D

I'd volunteer, but I tend to crash out around midnight EST every weeknight now. Playing still? Oh yes!

Monday is good, that way I'll have a vague chance of participating! I shall be useless to you, I'm afraid, since I'll be in Berlin Wed-Sun. But whoo, let me pet your shiny usefulness! :D

Always late to the damn party. Stick me where you need me, master.

I can cover for the Berlin time-zone for some of the time. Friday and Sunday for sure, and certainly parts of Thursday and Saturday.

And, well, I'd loved this to end Sunday night because Monday morning I will be in the hospital already. Of course, it will be nice to read all of what happened on Monday once I get back home :-)-

Go to Monday!

I can help out in the UK time zone on Thursday and Friday evenings, most of Saturday (morning to evening), probably most of Sunday (morning till probably early afternoon), and Monday evening.

Actually Friday evening has a small "?" over it. I'll be at a work do for the afternoon, and I don't know how late it'll go, but shouldn't be very late.

Let me know.

I would like to vote for un-moderated crack drabbles. (Because "crack" and "moderation" don't really go together!) And add me to the "go to Monday" group.

Are there going to be slots for the tag team fic? Like, I could sign up for Friday at 6, or something?

Tag team fic might run smoother if moderated, because it kind of has to be organized?
