Iron Smut: 24 hour notice (well, 22)
May. 27th, 2005 01:35 pmTo all contestants, assistants, and participants for Iron Smut FMA: The event will be held tomorrow, May 28th, at 12:00 PM Pacific time -- which is 1 PM Mountain, 2 PM Central, 3 PM Eastern, and 8 PM GMT. I don't know what time it is in Japan, but sadly I doubt people from that region will be able to make it.
Please note that the event will begin at that time, so it would be helpful if all the contestants could be gathered before then. At noon PST each of the contestants will be issued their challenge; they will have half an hour to consider what they want to do, or to swap challenges with another contestant. At 12:30 the challenge will begin!
I will create a thread in this journal in which the contestants will post their entries; each contestant should post one reply, then reply to his or her own post in order to keep their entries together. Contestants should post every ten minutes with their new material since the last call (assistants, it will be your job to make sure the contestants post on time! ;)
The challenge time will end at 2:00 PM, after which time the audience will vote by comment -- anonymously, if they wish -- for their favorite story. :)
If anyone has any questions or problems with the mechanics or scheduling of this, now's the time to post! All comments on this entry will be screened, so only the poster and I will be able to see it.
kawaiimae, I still haven't gotten in touch with you regarding your contestant specs. You need to tell me what pairings or situations you will NOT be willing to do -- anything you don't specify will be considered fair game. :) Feel free to reply here. Also, any contestants who are not already in touch with me over AIM need to provide their screen name or some other means of contact.
Assisstants, judges, commentators & spectators: the AIM chatroom for the event will be titled FMAIronSmutPeanutGallery. No spaces in the name out of respect for those (like me!) whose AIMs won't accept it. Anyone can invite themselves to this room, or if you are unsure how to do so, IM me (Mikkeneko) and I'll invite you.
The contestants' chatroom, for coordination and instructions but not for events, will be FMAIronSmutContestantRing.
Hope to see you all there!

Provided I'm doing my math right, that would be 4 AM in Japan, as there is a 13 hour difference between EST and Japan.
