Retrospring is shutting down on 1st March, 2025 Read more
Hi! Is there a possibility for a GDM for the participants of the valentine event? I think it will add to the fun when the writers are already connected and familiar with each other before they gift each other the fics 😊
Hi! Sorry it took a bit to respond to your question 😅
While I'm not entirely against the idea of a twt group chat for this event, I do have some hesitations
There were group chats made for previous events, but those were almost entirely "business" related. It was asked that people only send messages related to the event and/or questions/suggestions that would benefit the group. In other words, they were not social chats
This event doesn't really need a business chat, as most questions are pretty individualized, and I only need to send out one or two more announcements closer to the midpoint/end of the timeline
Again, I am not against social group chats! There is a general chat in our d!scord that I would love for people to talk in!!
For this event specifically, however, there's not much you would be able to talk about. You couldn't discuss anything about the fics you are writing because they would be for each other, and that is basically the whole event lol
On the other hand, I also don't want to stop the community from interacting! That's the whole point of this account. So, I will probably include a question on the midpoint check-in like “do you want to join a social twt gc?” and we can see from there :)
Basically, the answer is probably?
Thank you for the lovely idea 🩷
