GateverseOT3+-a-thon

wisdomeagleSign-ups are now closed. If you're interested in reading lots of quality OT3+ fic, the masterlist can be found here.
The premise of this ficathon is that one is not enough. In fact, two are not enough, and three is just starting to hit the proper number of people to have in a relationship. This is a ficathon for trios and triples and multiples on Stargate: SG-1 and on Stargate: Atlantis.
Here's how it will work. You'll sign up by commenting to this post. You'll request a story that you would like someone else to write for you. Since I'm leaving this open to all sorts of groupings, I'm asking that you make two separate requests. The person writing for you will only have to choose one to write. That way I'll have a better chance of matching your request with someone willing to write it.
You'll also tell me what groupings (throughout, the word "grouping" will mean what "pairing" usually does in these things)) you particularly want to write AND what groupings you absolutely can't or won't write, along with anything else you can't write. Then, after sign-ups close, I'll email you with the name and requests of the person you'll writing for. You'll choose one of hir requests and write a fic of at least 1000 words fulfilling it by June 15.
Fill out this form to sign up:
Name: [your name or pen name]
LJ: [your LJ username]
Email: [so I can email you your assignment]
Request 1
Grouping [any group of 3-6 characters]
Three special requests OR one prompt: [please include something here to give your writer an idea of the kind of thing you'd enjoy reading. If you really have no preference, give a prompt to get hir started]
Anything you don't want included: [for instance, non-con, BDSM, death, angst, smut, etc.]
Request 2
Grouping [any group of 3-6 characters]
Three special requests OR one prompt: [please include something here, to give your writer an idea of the kind of thing you'd enjoy reading. If you really have no preference, give a prompt to get hir started]
Anything you don't want included: [for instance, non-con, BDSM, death, angst, smut, etc.]
What groupings, kinds of groupings, or characters would you especially like to write? [I can't guarantee you'll get an assignment that exactly matches this, but it'll at least give me a ballpark idea]
What groupings or kinds of groupings can you not write? [for instance: won't write f/f/m groupings. Or nothing with more than three characters. Nothing with Teal'c. Etc.]
What else can't you write? [again, non-con, BDSM, smut, fluff -- anything you just couldn't write]
Can you write backup? [in case someone drops out]
A couple of notes for signing up:
1. The groupings you request must include at least three people, and, just to save our sanity, no more than five. All combinations of boys, girls, and Thor are acceptable.
2. I encourage everyone to be creative in requesting groupngs, but keep in mind that someone will have to write the grouping you request. Since you have two requests, try to make at least one of them, for lack of a better term, a more conventional grouping. If no conventional groupings strike your fancy, by all means, be unconventional. If worst comes to worst, I'll write your Chaka/Thor/Teyla fic.
3. Crossovers between the two shows are fine, but please keep it within the 'Gateverse.
4. Because of the nature of this ficathon, I'm assuming NC-17 content is okay unless you specify otherwise. If you'd prefer no NC-17, let me know.
5. If you have any questions, please ask!
Dates:
Signups start now and end on April 25.
Assignments will be mailed by April 27.
Fics will be due on June 15. On that day, I'll post a masterlist in my LiveJournal and link to it in all the places where I initially pimped this. You'll post the fic you wrote in your LJ, tell me where it is, and we'll all have lots of shiny new fic to read.
If you have to drop out, for whatever reason, let me know as soon as possible!
