hello first i want to say thank you for this event! this is gonna be such a dumb question sorry >.< but for the member bingo when we use ships does it have to be from the pov of the member we chose or can it be from the other person/people in the ship pov as well? thank you again!
extremely sorry for the late reply, uni kicked my ass to mars. this is not a dumb question at all please! yes it can be from different pov! just the member of your bingo has to be a major focus, and you can choose to portray that in any way you like! <333 thank you for your kind words!
hi mod! i saw that fanfic recs are allowed as bingo fills. i was wondering if i may request a card and use it to post my singbin fics on twitter? i havent been consistently tweeting about them and i wanna get my shit together in my new account, will it be okay?
yeah sure you are welcome to do that 💚 don’t forget to tag the bingo in your posts!
first of all, thank you for all of your work! the cards are gorgeous & i can't wait to start writing. just to clarify, what does "dark outside" mean as a trope? i'm unfamiliar, so my initial thoughts were either a variation on "cold outside/snowed in" but with darkness or a kind of "dresses scary/actually sweet" deal. again, thank you for putting this together! you've done an amazing job!
you are so sweet 😭 this mean so much to me you have no idea 💚 so i interpreted dark outside as literally pitch black darkness in a city with no moonlight and electricity, but the fun thing about these word prompts are you are that you are free to interpret it as you like! it’s usually related to environment just like you said: snowed in/cold outside, but the other option sounds just as fun! i’d say go for whichever you like! 💚💚💚
Are you still sending out the cards in batches?
yup i am!
hi! i absolutely adore the idea for this challenge. i was wondering if there was a deadline for sign-ups as well as posting fics?
hi! im so happy you like this challenge :3 this will run for at least a year, and you can ask for cards all thought out the year! after the challenge is over, i will not send out more cards, but you can still create using the card(s) you already have and submit in the collection.
Hi thanks for starting this again! Quick question, do we get to select the member or do you randomly assign it to the card?
Hi! Sorry for the late reply. Yes, you get to select the member, there is an option in the form! 💚
till when is this deukaebingo??? and just wanna say the entries are nice!
i havent decided yet but it surely will be open till april 2023! next year im also planning to hold a fic and art fest, but lets see! and thank you so much, it's all the participants who make running this event worthwhile <3
Hello! I just stumbled upon this event and it looks fantastic. I was wondering if I choose a 3x3 card and actually manage to fill it, could I request another one after?
of course you can!! lovely to have you with us! do send your card request i'll try to make it as quickly as possible!
ps: you can request for multiple cards too, but i'd suggest you keep the number to less than three <3
hi! how long does it usually take to get the bingo card? and can i still get it? i might be late already😅
hi! i usually take maximum 2 days to make a card unless i have exams or any health issues which i dont have now so send me in your request! and ofc you can still get in hehe the bingo ends next year so youre anything but late <3
Hello! Am I too late to join the event? I think I submitted a card request form a few days ago but I still haven't received a card. If it so happens that I cannot join anymore, can I still participate in the title track event?
hi oh my god! im late extremely sorry for that! but you requested a card and didn't receive it yet? that's unlikely to happen, can you knock me in dms? and no you're absolutely not late to the event! im sorry again for the late reply T^T please contact me through dms i'll check if i somehow missed your request
What is the worst thing one can do if they're bored?
omg is this ask for real? uhhh i dont know??? i mean whatKHJGFGHJGH I GUESS COMMIT HOM!C!DE??? IF THEYRE BORED?? WILL BE THE WORST THING TO DO?#?()&(^*%&$
Can chaptered works fill a bingo square with each chapter? Does a chapter from a work count as a submission or does the whole work count as a submission only? I'm not sure if this has been asked previously.
i mean, i allow it! you can have, suppose, 6 chapters, and you can choose to submit each chapter in response to a prompt in your bingo tiles. it will be considered a submission, unless it's a chapter from a previous work that you had not posted as a part of the bingo, you get me? i hope you do lol.
oh also, if you have a 5x5 or a 7x7 card then you can fill upto 12 tiles with 6 chapters, as 1 submission = 2 tiles if you choose to do so. in those cards! if you have a 3x3 card however, you can fill upto 6 tiles with 6 chapters only.
hope i could answer your question! and dont worry even if a question was asked previously uWu altho i would recommend everyone to go through the pinned thread in twitter and also this retrospring account if they can, but yeah im always ready to help you guys out! have a good day <3
for a 5x5 card, is getting the 8 squares surrounding the free space a bingo?
yup! for 3x3 too! the example bingo wins apply to all the card types. however, theres a free space in the middle for 5x5 and 7x7 cards that one can use for any purpose in order to achieve a bingo win. this one is missing in 3x3 cards. but yeah, all the example bingo wins in the demo graphic applies to all cards <3
Hi! I’ve never done a bingo before: is there a time limit?
hellooo
so bingos usually have a way longer creation period than fests or gift exchanges or big bangs which makes them very flexible. as for this one, it will be up and promoting its submissions for a year at least, so it means that you can request a card at any time and fill the tiles with your preferred fanwork(s). you can submit a work after months from your last submission if that's your thing, and it will still be promoted on this account (unless you forget to tag it somewhere lol). so yeah! you have a year <3
sorry for being unclear! on your rules page, you have a list of restricted topics!
no don't be sorry please! and yeah, the topics i've restricted are triggering topics and cuz i personally don't vibe with them :'/ like r*pe and dead dove topics
