New Challenge...and New Mod

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

Hello, all!   Yep, it's me, Milady Dragon. I'll be your Mod for this evening... *grins*

The first birthday of Long Live Ianto is coming up, and to celebrate we have a new challenge:

Cliche Bingo!

All your favorite Fan Fiction Cliches are being offered: everything from Genderswap, to Evil Doppelgangers, to that oh-so-fun Aliens Made Us Do It, it's all going to be there.  Every cliche we could think of will be included, all for your long-lived version of Ianto to play around with.

The challenge will continue on until December 31st, and as always you can post after the deadline.   All you need to do is request a card in a comment below, as well as list any sort of squicks you might not want to get saddled with.  If you have any preferences, list those as well, although we can't promise you'll get everything you ask for.  After all, bingo is supposed to be random, and it's a challenge.  Don't want to make it too easy, do we?  *winks*

The regular bingo rules apply, and there will be various prizes for getting a bingo.  A straight line bingo will get you a banner, and we're currently working out other prizes and will announce them at a later date.  When you submit a bingo post, just add the "bingo" tag so we know it should be counted as part of the challenge.  If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Looking forward to seeing what you all come up with!

I'll have your card ready by tomorrow. :) I can't wait to see what you come up with! *SQUEE!*

[madbottoms.livejournal.com]

I've really only jusy started writing Janto stuff but I might be able to give this challenge a go. And it would be nice to write in a community where Ianto gets to live a long life.

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

Hi and welcome! :)
This should get your Janto plotbunnies multiplying. LOL!
I gotta ask - any squicks? We don't want you to end up with a card that has a prompt you can't write. And are kinks ok to be included?
Glad to have you join us!

[silkendreammaid.livejournal.com]

i've never done a bingo thingy before altho' i've seen others do them and i'm not quite sure how they work anyway, but i'm on enough anti-histamines to do something that i probably normally wouldn't do without a lot more thinking about, so yes, i'll take a card.. :)

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

LOL! You really have nothing to lose. No one will blacklist you if you don't finish. So no squicks? Ok if any kinks come up for your card?
Welcome aboard! It'll be fun. :)

[czarina-kitty.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, yes. Send me a card!
(Per the earlier comments, no squicks and kinks are fine.)

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

Here's your card. I can't wait to see what you do. :)

[caz251.livejournal.com]

Ooh, pass a card my way please.

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

*Passes card* Hope you like! Looking forward to your fics. :)

[zazajb.livejournal.com]

Could I have a card please - and if there could be something kissy on there that would be lovely - the rest - as they come!

[will let you know when t-shirt done - hopefully this w/e :D]

D xxx

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

No hurry on the shirt. When you get it, you get it. All long as I get to wear it while getting JB's autograph at Comic Con this summer. ;)

We don't have any kissing prompts cause we figure there should be enough of that going on anyway. :D But you do have some schmoopy type prompts which I hope makes up for it. Enjoy! And I can't wait to see what you come up with. *hugs*

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

New mod-ly type waves back & will be around again soon. :)
Ah, I can't hit you! But I can give you a card - and I think you have an interesting selection. *grins* Have fun! :D

[iolo1234.livejournal.com]

Oh go on then you know me I'll give it a try. Well you know what I write so I don't mind what you give me.

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

Well then, I think you'll have fun with this one. I know I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with. :D

[choccy-grl.livejournal.com]

I think I'm addicted to bingo's. Hit me. I can't promise I'll finish it...

Anything on it, I'll try anything once!

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

No one is blacklisting you if you can't finish. Even if a fic or two comes of it, that's more for us to read. There's always just going for a straight bingo too. It's all up to you. :)
I think you're going to have fun with this one (I hope so!).

[cyberdigi.livejournal.com]

Before I jump off this bridge got to ask since I've never done a BINGO card. Can a fic cover more than one space or does it have to cover only one?

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

Only one. But you can do a series, so each fic could actually be more like a chapter or a part, if you will.
I'll be on IM in a bit, and I'll explain more if you like. :)

[fiwen1010.livejournal.com]

I'd like to play, please!

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

YAY! Glad to have you play. I can't wait to see what you come up with (you have to be the Bingo Queen!)

[bookwrm89.livejournal.com]

I'm in! Looking forward to seeing the prompts on my card *grins*

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

Wait no more! :D

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

*raises hand*

Me too, please!

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

Of course, new mod-ly type! *grins* Have fun!

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

ME!ME!ME! Please!
Oh wait... that's me too. *laughs*
I swear my prompts are as random as all the other cards. So here's my card:

[vittani.livejournal.com]

Hiya I definitely want a card but I've never done a bingo before so could you tell me the rules as well please? ^_^

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

The rules are just like regular bingo: you try to get five in a row for a straight bingo, or you can try to the fill the entire card for a cover.

It's one prompt per story only, and you can do as many prompts as you like. The deadline in 12/31 so you have plenty of time.

Any more questions, just ask! And we're glad you're going to give it a shot!

[gabe1990.livejournal.com]

Hey,
I haven't done this before, but I'd like to true it.
I don't have many squicks that I don't want to do, but I really don't want crack!fic - it is something I just cannot write

Thank you
Gabe x

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

No problem! As soon as our card-maker-person is online, we'll get you a card.

Glad you're playing!

[moonfirefic.livejournal.com]

I've never done one of these before. But the longer deadline is appealing.

What the heck- card me please!

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

Yay! I was hoping you wouldn't be able to resist!

[backrose-17.livejournal.com]

Oh this looks like fun so give me a card I want to try my hand at this.

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

Great! I can't wait to see what you write from whatever prompts you get!

[cjharknessgirl.livejournal.com]

I'd like a card please! :) Maybe this will get my muses out of hiding.

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

Haha! Can't wait to see what prompts you get. :)

[mermaidstarfish.livejournal.com]

Oooh could I have one? Hopefully it'll push me into writing a bit more :)

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

Welcome! Glad you could join in! We'll get you your card shortly. :)

[gingerlr.livejournal.com]

ME! Me! Okay, I know that I failed at the other bingo cards but maybe this one I can do.

Thanks!

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

Yay! Glad you're going to give us a shot. And who cares if you don't get a bingo, just so long as you have fun! :)

[royalladyemma.livejournal.com]

Please, MiLadyDragon, may I have a cliche' bingo card? Ianto will NEVER die in my universe or in my heart, and this challenge is just brilliant!!! Thank you so much for offering the cards, and I'm looking very forward to getting started!!!!

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

Absolutely you can have a card! Welcome, and I'm glad you're going to join us. Our card-maker-upper will get you one as soon as she can. :)

[teachwriteslash.livejournal.com]

Oh what the heck ... and unlike my last six bingos could the mpreg queen here get some related or kid related prompts.

Seriously, not one. I got a complex.

This one I will TRY to write.

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

I love you. You should now that, Mpreg Queen. *hugs*
So glad you want a card. I think you will like your card. I hope so! :D

[iceshade.livejournal.com]

DO WANT. Especially the 'fairy tales' square I've seen. :D?
But with a gen waiver, meaning anything that has to be smutty, such as 'fuck or die', 'sex toys', 'hooker AU' and anything else that can't be reinterpreted to a non- hard R/NC-17 fic removed, please. I have nothing against it, I just personally am unable to write it :/

If I need to make my requests less ambiguous, let me know.

FWIW, 'aliens made them do it' is not in that category

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

Glad you're joining in on the fun. I think I managed to get all the smut prompts out. Looking forward to what you can do.

[ms-bekahrose.livejournal.com]

I'd like to request a card please :)

[totally4ryo.livejournal.com]

Hey there! Glad to see you playing! :D
Here's your card:
