Hello! Just received the check-in email and saw the beta question. If we are interested in having a beta look over our fic, how would that work? Can I ask a friend to do it for me or is it assigned by the mods?

Hello! if you have a friend to do it for you then that's cool, no need to answer yes for that question. We only added that for people who want a beta reader but cannot find one on their own, or they are shy to share with friends etc

The way we usually do that, is that we post announcements for each author who needs a beta reader and match them with the first suitable volunteer!

Hey um it's me again, I was the one who asked to join in the earlier message, I messaged you in your Twitter page that day as the form I opened said it was closed and I'm sorry for the trouble. I still would love to participate if there's any chance...

Hey.. um I just discovered your Twitter page and let me tell you that it was the best thing that has happened to me. I'm kinda sad I couldn't participate for this round but I'll wait for the next one. I really appreciate your effort and everything. I wish you the best of luck and lots of love ❤️

Hello, dear anon! We are so happy you found us and was able to join this round, as a reader if not a creator, to welcome nini back ❤️

But just FYI, claiming is still open and you have about 24 hours to join us if you would like to 👀

hii, i was wondering what's the "check in" period of the fic about? how's it different from the "submission" one? also, if someone wants to stay anonymous, is it possible or are reveals obligatory?

Hello, dear anon!

The check in phase is were the mods send an email to check on the progress you made so far! It's different from final submissions, just to make sure who is still with us and how far everyone is ^^

And yes you can stay anonymous if you prefer so!

Hello!! Can I still claim a prompt?

Anon · 1mo

Where can I find the masterpost with the fests dates/rules/etc?

Anon · 1mo

Hello!! I have a few questions 😁Just for confirmation, we can choose any prompts including from the previous rounds, right? And is it okay to choose only one prompt in the claiming form? And I'm uncomfortable in writing smut, so is it okay if I don't include any smut scene and just mention it very briefly?

Hello, anon!

Yes you can choose from previous rounds. yes, it's okay to choose only one prompt.
If you are uncomfortable writing smut then a brief mention without deep details is okay as long as it's clear that it's top jongin (since it's a top jongin fest)

Hello! Yes, that would be possible, dear anon 😊 just contact us once you are done!

Hi! Can i comms someone to claim the prompt? Thank you ♡

Hello! That would be between you and the person you want to commission, anon! We don't have any rules against it as long as the author abides to the fests general rules 😊

hello! is self-prompting still an option? or was it supposed to be submited til nov 23 during the prompting phase and the deadline has already passed? thank you!

Hello! Self-prompting started with claiming, and will stay open until claiming period is over! You can still self-prompt, dear anon!

Hi mods! Is it okay to pick up a dropped prompt from the previous round?
