ADMIN: Song and Dance challenge

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

Because siegeofangels is my kind of crackhead: "How about a Song and Dance challenge? Because: tapdancing explosives expert. Pianist, guitarist, singer. Teyla bellydancer AU? John bellydancer AU? There can't be too much of this stuff, really." No, there really, really can't. Also--band stories, symphony stories, Rodney and Teyla competing on American Idol AUs? John and Teyla tango? *points to icon*, *cough*

SGA: The Musical?

Today is November 3rd; stories will be due November 17th at midnight.

Edited because bethnyc's comment is too good not to share: "Aliens Made Them Sing!"

Oh my god, YES!

[khriskin]

*snickers* So Once More With Feeling 'eh? ^_~ Original lyrics to known tunes are okay, yes/no?

Darnit, I'm never gonna keep up with NaNo at this rate. Darned plotbunnies. :P

My Nano *is* the song and dance challenge. *boggles*

O_O <-(look of utter shock) ... *bows* I am not worthy! ^_^;;

You have NO idea how happy I am about this challenge. OK, so what I'll submit won't technically be a *flash* fic as I've already been working on it for a while, but having a deadline will force me to finish it. Anyhow, the whole *flash* thing seems to be more of a guideline than a rule...savvy?

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

In the comms I run, "flash" is really a matter of style. *g* We just have flash!

I was wondering, what about a "Stranger Than Fiction" challenge? It's rather broad, I know, but the thought intrigues me.

[with-apostrophe.livejournal.com]

Savvy!

Aliens Made Them Sing!

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

Wow, but isn't that like, a logical impossibility? how can you write fiction about something stranger than fiction? *g*

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

YOU WIN THE INTERNET!!!!!! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!

[bethynyc.livejournal.com]

YAY!!!


Does that mean I get cookies?

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

*beep* *beep* *truckload of cookies backs up*

Dude, I'm STILL laughing five minutes later.

[bethynyc.livejournal.com]

WHEEEEEE!!!!

I guess I'll just have to write out the mission that my transcript came from...

(or the SGA version of OMWF)

[ladyeclectic79.livejournal.com]

KARAOKE!!!

*plotbunnies threatening, to, overwhelm*

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

*cries with happy at thought of team karaoke*

[asturiet.livejournal.com]

Exactly. The paradox amuses me to no end.

My love for this fandom cannot be textually rendered.

[ras-elased.livejournal.com]

OMG, I'm *SO* tempted to write a "Dancing with the Stars (of SGA)" AU...

My fandom smokes the best crack! :D

*drags all her musicals off the shelf*

[with-apostrophe.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness I remember that thread when we decided that 'aliens made them sing it' should be a sub-genre. Personally I think everybody who writes SGA should do at least one story in our sub-genre. There is no such thing as too much 'aliens made them sing it'

[purna.livejournal.com]

So an interpretive dance must suffice. I'll just sit here and watch. :D

Might it be possible to extend the deadline for this challenge, given that a number of folks may have NaNoWriMo going on as well this month?

(Not that that's my excuse, mind you; I'm just slow. *g*)

If I'm the only one expressing interest in an extension, though, no worries--I don't mind waiting for the next Amnesty round.

deadline

[shusu.livejournal.com]

Meep! I'm just confused with the midnight thing... I've got one coming in, if it's tonight. I'm just wrangling the formatting.

Re: deadline

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

I think it's tomorrow, the 17th at midnight! Worry not!!

GENDER BENDER

[cold-queen-5.livejournal.com]

Me repeats. Gender Bender challenge...

Please?

[dzurlady.livejournal.com]

Hey, would you mind keeping the challenge open for just a little longer? I was betaing a peice for Tielan but I've been sick, so I've been a bit late getting it back, and I'd hate for her to miss the challenge as a result. *hopeful* It's John! And Teyla! And the tango, and it is scorching hot. *pimps*

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

You had me at tango. *G*

Also, there are spies. :)
