maythe4thbewithyouMay the 4th Be With You is gearing up for another round! As always, if it's Star Wars, it's in. Holiday Special, yes! Forces of Destiny, yes! Campaign podcast, why not? Crossover pairing from the 2D Clone Wars cartoon and the Baze and Chirrut YA novel? Of course! As in previous rounds, the rules are simple: create a minimum 500 word story or 500 x 500 pixel piece of fan art based on your recipient's requested character(s) or relationship(s) and respecting their Do Not Wants.
The schedule is as follows, with most due dates and deadlines at 1159 PM UTC:
Schedule:
Feb 16 - Mar 2: Nominations
Mar 3 - Mar 18: Sign ups
Mar 19ish: Matching and assignments go out
Apr 19: Early default deadline
Apr 26: Assignments due, pinch hits go out
May 2: Pinch hits due
May 3: Last minute scrambling and panic
May 4: Works go live
May 11: Creators revealed
If you have strong opinions about the timing, this is a great opportunity to speak up. We're also taking ideas for the Initiate Trials. What kinds of activities, incentives, or games would you like to see this year? We are continuing both character and relationship matching, with a change-up this year. Relationships will still be nominated as "Name & Name" or "Name / Name" while single character nominations will be nominated as "Character: Name." Are there other changes you'd like to see? Let us know and we can discuss it here in the comments to this post.
