monaboyd_monthWelcome to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
monaboyd_month!
What is this place, you ask? Fear not, I will explain.monaboyd_month is, basically, exactly what it sounds like. It is a community dedicated to a month-long celebration of the monaboyd pairing, provided by you, facilitated by us.
That sounds fun, you say (you're right, by the way). But how does it work? Well, dear reader, this is how: during the month of April this community turns into a veritable monaboyd fest. You leave a comment to sign up; we assign you a particular date. This date is your date. On this date you post your contribution to the fest- fic, fanart, picspam, whatever you like. On other dates the monaboydian offerings of others appear on your friendslist for you to enjoy!
Still with me? Good. Here are some specifics, in the convenient form of FAQ
Signing up:
1. How do I sign up?
Just leave a comment on the sign-up post with the following information:
Name:
Email:
Journal you will be using to post (if different):
Preferred week of April, if you have one:
What sort of thing you'll be posting (fic, art, etc):
Once you've signed up please friend the community so you can see any reminders or updates. We promise not to spam you and you're welcome to defriend the community once the major posting begins if for some reason you don't want monaboyd love all over your flist.
2. When do sign ups end?
You have until March 4th. We'll give you your dates as soon after that as we can.
3. Am I guaranteed to get the week I want?
Well, not exactly. If everyone wants to be in the last week we're going to have to disappoint someone. Popular weeks will be assigned on a first-comment-first-serve basis. We are, however, very nice people. If you have a real problem with the date you're assigned just drop us a comment or email and we'll see what we can do.
Posting:
1. How do I post?
Just post your offering to the community on the date assigned to you!
2. What kinds of things are appropriate?
Anything that shows your love of monaboyd. Some ideas are: fic, picspam, fanart, other art post (icons, wallpapers, headers, etc), fanvids, fanmixes, etc. If you have an idea that you're unsure about, feel free to contact us!
3. Do I have to do something new?
Well, yes. The idea is really to get some new monaboyd love out there. However, posting a chapter of an ongoing work or finishing something that you've previously posted as a WIP (as long as some significant progress has been made) is just fine! Link us to previous parts, we'll have more to enjoy!
4. Can I post my offerings in my personal journal/in other communites?
Absolutely, just wait until the day after they've gone up inmonaboyd_month, please.
5. What happens if my post is late?
If you know your post is going to be late, PLEASE try to notify us as soon as possible. We'll try to switch around some dates or see if we can find somebody to pinch-hit. Really, though, please try to post on your date.
So, that's it! If you have any other questions feel free to contact us at monaboydmonth@gmail.com or just leave a comment here.

Date: 2008-03-07 10:30 pm (UTC)I've got study leave soon, and thus ample time to do something wonderful (by my standards) if you'd possibly consider letting me join late?
If you've sorted out who's getting what week and things by now no worries ^^ I bet it'll be great!

Date: 2008-03-10 11:15 pm (UTC)Posting Questions
Date: 2008-04-11 06:06 pm (UTC)I am planning to post many of my 23 Monaboyd videos! And I have some questions.
First - when can I start posting? Is a minute after midnight too early? LOL
Secondly - most of my vids are hosted on YouTube - would you prefer that I just add a link or can I embed some on the thread? How much can I post? Also, some are 'clean' and some are 'naughty' hehe - I plan to warn others of the R-N17 ones hehe
Thirdly - Thanks SO MUCH for this month and concept! I truely love Monaboyd!
