* As I said, sorry for dropping off the edge a bit again, but I had a friend up and was therefore tired/using my social spoons elsewhere, but at least that was a good reason. It was v nice to see her. She went out geocaching a lot and in between we ate and watched Classic Doctor Who, Blake's 7 and Dungeons & Dragons because she is the only person who I know in rl who thinks my collection of old telly DVDs are a good thing.

* I'm a bit amused in passing (as well as enjoying many of the results anyway, so this isn't a complaint) that every other person seems to be doing some creative October thing - whumptober, spooktober, inktober... (What is it about October?)

equinox_exchange has gone live! Watch historical-flavoured fanvids! Profit!

* Some new comms and things around:

fortune_favors (a fest using tarot cards as prompts),

inspiring_tables (prompt tables, partly to replace

15kisses etc.) Oh, and someone's been trying to put together a couple posts' worth of all the active prompt-type comms on Dreamwidth here.

* Probably some other things, but I don't have much brain, never mind.

Hmm, from a quick read-over of the rules, I came away with the impression they were more of a stickler for actually caring about following the prompts/theme than the other bingos I've done, but looking at them again, I'm not entirely sure where I got that impression from. Well, I will consider it, anyway!

Although with my luck, I'd end up with all the scary prompts, because there are a lot of those, as well as a lot of intriguing ones. Well, that just counts as a challenge, right? :)

ETA: I... may have just signed up for it. Wish me luck, 'cause I think I might need it. :)

Ha, good luck! And, yeah, I hope you manage to avoid too many of the scariest prompts, but it is a bingo. I'm sure you can navigate your way around them to find a line (and they have lots of options; I like the parallel lines one). And, of course, sometimes it's boggling at the worst prompt that produces fic the quickest!
