Last year the universe decided to have everything happen at once. In case that happens this year, I am looking for a someone who will initially be a tester, but may need to assume some co-mod duties if it all goes horribly wrong (which hopefully it won't).
What I need someone to do:
None of these have to be a real nomination/sign up/work, they can be a test that you then delete. You would become a maintainer of the collection, which allows you to test things before they open.
What I might need someone to do:
ie all of the mod things if I can't do any of them for some reason. If this happened then I would contact you first to see if you can do whatever needs doing at that point.
There is a gmail account for the ficathon, which you'd have access to. This is the email address used for the Tumblr, so you'd also have access to that. If you have a Dreamwidth account, then that would become an admin for the community. If you don't then I'll create a general one using the same email address.
Although it would be useful if you know AO3, Dreamwidth and/or Tumblr, you don't need to. AO3 is not intuitive, but there are help articles that explain things. I don't know Tumblr well, so if you do that would be a plus for posting over there.
If I run this again next year then I would ask you if you were ok to carry on again too.
If you think you can do this, then you can either reply to this post (comments are screened) or email me at tardisfestivities@gmail.com
What I need someone to do:
- Check the collection and challenge settings
- Test making a nomination
- Test signing up
- Test submitting a work
- Approve any works that are for me (currently I just approve without looking because I want to be surprised when the collection opens)
None of these have to be a real nomination/sign up/work, they can be a test that you then delete. You would become a maintainer of the collection, which allows you to test things before they open.
What I might need someone to do:
- Post reminders/warnings about dates on Dreamwidth and Tumblr
- Post pinch hits
- Update settings in AO3 to open/close nominations/sign ups/posting
