New Bingo Round: BINGO 2015!

The old round has come to an end; a new game begins! If you have fills you'd like to claim for the previous round, please check out here. If you're interested in getting a new bingo card, this post is the place to be!

The goal: Fill prompts to complete a line (row, column, or diagonal). Feeling adventurous? Try for a blackout (fill every prompt on your card).

  • Fills must be original and created specifically for your bingo card. They must not have been submitted for any other organized fandom challenge (such as bangs, exchanges, etc). You are welcome to use supplementary prompts from any source (including 890fifth, avengerskink, etc). Special exception: works created for the 2015 C-IM Tiny Reverse Bang can be counted as bingo fills!

  • Fills can be either fic (500+ words), art (no manips), or podfic (500+ words)

  • A fill may only count toward ONE space/prompt. This includes multi-chaptered fills.


Posting fills:
Fills can be posted wherever you like, but must be tagged with something like 'bingo', 'cap-ironman bingo fill', etc. We encourage (but do not require) you to post your fics to the comm with the 'bingo!' tag, use the #stonybingo tag on tumblr, or add your fic to the AO3 collection.

Cards and prompts: Some prompts are specific, some are open to interpretation. Let us know if you would like clarification on one of your prompts. For image prompts, you are not required to stick to the same format or universe, though you may choose to do so. (For example, if your visual prompt is a 616 panel, you don't have to do a 616 fill.)

You have the option to include KINK prompts. Sorry, we are not allowing omissions. If you receive a prompt on your card that you don't know or dislike, just work around it. Randomness and risk are part of the fun!

EDIT (for clarification): Some prompts are related to a format type, such as 'writing format: outsider pov', 'art format: line art', or 'podfic format: atmospheric'. You get to pic what type of format prompts you'd like to include. Don't worry, if you choose not to include (for example) art format prompts, you can still draw stuff for fills - you just won't get those specific prompts on your card.


SAMPLE bingo card


To receive your STONY bingo card, leave a comment with answers to the following:
Username?
Kink or no kink?
Fic, art, or podfic (select at least one)?
(EDIT for clarification: This refers to 'format' prompts only. Regardless of what you choose, you can still use any of the three to fill prompts. Please see above for more detail.)


Your card will be posted to as a reply to your comment, so if you comment anon, be sure to check back. Due to time zones and stuff, it may take us a day or two to respond. You may request a second card once you have completed a line on your first card.

This round will end January 31st, 2016!

Thank you! I'm really excited to try this out, & what better way to lose my Bingo V-card than with stony? I have a few questions about my spaces though? Does Transformation include de-aging? and Canon:Auverses and What if; like if Howard hadn't been killed, Cap found earlier/later? That kind of thing? Lingerie=dress up? (god I hope so) And then I'm sorry for all the questions, but what do you mean by Canon: comic miniseries/oneshot? Thank you for your help in advance. :)

Welcome aboard! Don't worry, you're definitely not alone - we've got a number of people this round who have never done a bingo before. Give it a try, do what's fun, and if you have any questions, please feel free to ask us whatever. We're glad to have you here :D

I totally agree there's no better ship to lose your bingo v-card with, but I may be a bit biased :D

Sure, transformation can include de-aging! And I would say dress-up definitely includes lingerie.

The 'canon: x' prompts are challenges to write something set in or about the named canon. For 'canon: au verses and what if...?', Marvel comics (and the cartoons) canonically have interactions with alternate realities, and there's a comics line called 'What If...?' which is basically canon one-shot issues centered around alternate universes where things went differently (my personal fave is 'What If Tony Stark was the Sorcerer Supreme?'). Or, for example, there's a miniseries (which I keep meaning to get around to reading) called 'Bullet Points' where Steve becomes Iron Man. So the challenge there would be to write something involving one of those canon AUs.

Likewise, for 'canon: comic miniseries/oneshots', the challenge is to pick a particular miniseries or one-shot (which could also be one of those canon AU miniseries/oneshots, or could be a miniseries/oneshot set within one of the larger comics universes such as 616, Marvel Adventures, or Ultimates) and write a fill about it.

The idea with the canon prompts is to challenge people to play around with particular canons, just as other prompts challenge people to play around with particular tropes. Steve/Tony exists in a lot of different types of media, and a lot of different canons, so we have a wealth of background material. The comics canons can be intimidating if you're not familiar with them, but people here are always happy to make recommendations for where to jump in (and point you in the direction of some, um, extremely affordable sources, if you so desire). And comics fandom in general likes to make wikis for everything, so it's a lot easier these days to find information about all this stuff even without having to read a single issue.

Please don't worry about asking too many questions, feel free to keep asking me here! If you have canon questions in particular, I'd also encourage you to come over to the IRC chat sometime - there's usually someone in the chat at any given time, but especially during the weekly chats there's generally people around who will have recs for comics, cartoons, games, etc. Also we are friendly and love new faces :)

I need some inspiration to start writing again. Maybe this will be the kick in the butt I need.

Just a quick question!

I've barely gotten time to come back and get my card and two spaces already have pictures, I just wondered if that picture was my prompt? Thanks!

Not sure that's what you're asking, but the two pics on this card (Avengers Tower and Steve opening his shirt and revealing the Captain America costume beneath) are indeed two of our image prompts, to be interpreted however you like.

Thank you! Only question, what does the Canon 616 one mean?
navaan: (Default)

Re: Stony Bingo 2015

[personal profile] navaan 2015-08-04 11:34 am (UTC)(link)
616 is a shorthand for saying the "main comics universe". Very roughly the prompt means "early comics continuity of the main Marvel comics".

Are we allowed to combine other tropes into our bingo squares? For example, with the natural disaster square, my immediate reaction is Sentinel/Guide AU dealing with an earthquake or a flood or something. Is that allowed?

Of course! \o/

Bingo is really meant to inspire you guys to write more fic and the prompts are there to get your gears going and challenge you a bit to think of new ideas to explore. There are no hard rules about how you're to use the prompts beyond "create a fanwork with this prompt in mind!" So go for it.

Sentinel/Guide AU dealing with an earthquake or a flood

Sounds like an awesome idea to me. :)

oh can I just ask for some clarification on what it means by canon: 616 modern?

does it mean a spin on 616 canon? or, sorry, i'm just a little confused

To elaborate a bit on what [livejournal.com profile] navaan said above, the prompt there is to write something that is set in the 616 canon universe. If you're not familiar with the 616 canon universe but you'd like to give that prompt a shot (and I do encourage you to try! Exploring the many versions of Steve/Tony is a lot of fun :D ), I can recommend some comics you could try out to read. You could also stop by the comm's IRC chat and ask for some recs there, as a lot of knowledgeable people hang out there (who can also give some recommendations for, er, extremely cheap comics sources that unfortunately we can't link to on LJ, if so desired).

By 'modern' we're referring to the modern era of comic books (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Age_of_Comic_Books), which is anything that was written from about 1985-ish up to the present day. So, the prompt is to write something that's set in the 616 universe, as it existed at some point in the last thirty years... which might not be considered really modern, but comics has a long history :P
