hello! is it okay for writers to have people beta read their fics ?
yes, super okay! just make sure your beta keeps your secret ;p
Hi I'm planning on to participate in this round but I'm not sure since I failed and late to participate the last round (I've claimed a prompt back then but couldn't made it since it's my exam week) thank you and good luck admins!
hiii! don't worry about things that happened on the 1st round 🥺 we know how hard exam weeks are (i'm going through one right now ;p). if you want to give it another shot, just do it!! we'll be happy to see you again <3
hello. im trying to look at the prompts but the claimed/unclamed boxes are not lined up very well with the prompts and are confusing. interface is cute, but a lot to look at. very intimidating.
oh, these boxes are merely decorative! what really matters is the color of the prompt box once claiming starts. we're sorry if it looks confusing :( i guess it looks better on pc. i'll see what we can do about it <3
hi! will self prompters get a confirmation email, or is it only for people who claim?
self-prompters are also emailed! the email is sent within 24 hours of submitting the form.
I think the neos that are minors should be out of a fanfition fest. especially one that is abo. let's not sexualize Ryo Sakuya please
we definitely won't accept explicit prompts and works involving underage members, but there are plenty of a/b/o fanfictions rated teen and up/general audiences. not every a/b/o fanfiction has to be explicit :)
excuse me :D why is wayv not in the sub gender poll :D
we just tweeted about it!! we'll get to wayv and wish shortly. we split the poll in debut order because we didn't want to spam tweet. we did this on the first round as well, don't worry! <3
Hello! Just wondering if there will be archive viewing at all? Thanks for round two! so excited!
prompt archive will be available on the 20th! and claiming starts on the 22nd. we're so excited as well! <3
(same anon as the one who asked about self prompting with a fic previously posted to twt) i mean like as a wip wednesday, so parts of the fic were revealed but not all of it :]
oooh, i get it now! i think it would still be okay, don't worry <3
hi! so if we want to self prompt, is it okay if we use a fic that we previously posted on twt as long as we don’t post it again?
do you mean a prompt previously posted? sure, i don't see why this would be a problem!
hi hi! Just wondering if by active members you're excluding Taeyong cause he's in the military? And any other members that go before the fest start starts? Or if you're just excluding lucas.
we were about to rewrite that part of the carrd to avoid misunderstandings! by active members we mean members that are still part of the brand nct, even if they're enlisted. we're excluding the ones who are no longer under the brand (lucas, shotaro, sungchan).
is there a difference with the explicit tagged fics with 🔞 and those without? o.O
oh, we must have forgotten to include the emoji, but there isn't a difference. please, consider and check the rating of the work, regardless of the emoji. 🙏
so exciting to see all of the fics for this fest!!! now that posting has finished, when will reveals be?
FINALLY! 🥰❤️🔥 we are working right now on announcing the date!
does that mean the other claimed prompts didn't finish in time? I was hoping for 052 😫
That's right😔 We are sorry to confirm that, but we do understand that some authors couldn't make it or had to drop out, it happens.
The fics look great! Are you able to update the modified dates on the fics when they're revealed? Some of us check by recent and will miss the fics otherwise. Thank you!
we are glad to hear that! actually, we can't edit the fics, only the authors can edit their work. so we’ll encourage the author to update the date after the reveals.
Hi! Im sorry idk how i didnt realise you guys use this more.. i sent a cc haha are yall still checking that or should i ask it here?
we weren't checking because we thought it was still down haha but we'll answer your cc right now, don't worry!
