Now, what's next for challenges? We plan on holding our third yearly winter fic and art exchange - sign-ups will be running from the start of November. We're planning a friending meme quite shortly, as we have a lot of new people who want to meet people to squee with!

But what else would you like to see in the way of challenges and comm activities? Bingo cards? Comm read-alongs? Another Reverse Big Bang, another Big Bang? Podfic exchanges, drabble-offs?

Comment below, and tell us what you'd like to see more of in the comm!

I love the idea of doing a comm read-along! Another comm I'm a part of is doing one write now and I love reading everyone's thoughts. What about posts where we could discuss the current comics & Events(like Fear Itself)?
I also really enjoyed the women of Cap/Iron posts from last year. Another series of posts like that would be interesting. Maybe about Cap/Iron Man's supporting characters or thier props/tech or something.

How does a drabble-off work?

I think the read alongs are more likely to be older canon, due to the immense bitterness (and potential wank) surrounding current canon. Plus I think it would be more fun to all read older stuff that maybe not everyone has heard of.

We did try to have themed meta posts at one point last year. I seem to remember writing most of them, and by month three, no one was writing at all.

Drabble off is where we divide the comm into teams, assign a prompt or theme, and whichever team posts the most drabbles in comments wins. More or less.
