Now that the archive has opened its door once again, it’s time to get your bingo cards on! That’s right, it's time to make like an old lady, and get your bingo on!
What are bingo cards for?
Bingo cards are a fun way to try to seek out works in the collection you might not otherwise see! What we do is we take aspects of different fics in the collection (at least 1 tag from each fic, every character that has a fic in the archive, and every length). We divide these tags into three potential cards: one that is only assembled out of information from SFW works, one that is for NSFW works, and one that combines tags between the two. Your mission, if you choose to accept a bingo card, is to hunt down works with those tags/characters/characteristics, read/view them, and leave a comment on it.
Commenting cards are 5x5 with a free space. The criteria for the free space is up to you. Your challenge is to read and comment on as many as you can to fill up the card, make other rare pair writers happy, and have the Maker smile upon you.
You can request a card with prompts in several flavors: SFW, NSFW, or combined. You may also request to have a card without certain categories of prompts (eg: DAO only, no non-con, etc).
These bingo cards are non-binding and self-regulated; you can get a “Bingo” by making a line, four corners, etc. It is entirely for fun! There are no prizes but making others happy, and reading things you might not have gotten to read otherwise.
If you want to play, all you need to do is send a request for a bingo card to our tumblr inbox or reply to this dreamwidth post (you do not need a Dreamwidth account to post!). All comments are screened. You may also ask moderators in the Discord chat, and we will send them to you there.
All we need to know is:
- What type of card you want (SFW, NSFW, or a combination)
- Which categories/tags, if any, you DNW to potentially match
