Creative Challenges Feedback
It's been a little over a year since we've solicited your thoughts on our monthly fanart, fanfic, and poetry challenges so we'd like to pick your helpful brains again! We'd like feedback from all of our artists, ficcers, and poets, whether you've entered one of the challenges lately or not; we want to hear from you!
We have a small set of questions on challenge types we've run and are thinking about offering as well as on theme suggestions and your general feeling about posting your work at Immeritus. Feel free to copy and paste the questions and add your responses. Comments are screened so there's no need to worry about anyone but staff seeing your comments! Please get your feedback in by Monday, May 14, 2007 so we can use the results for future challenges!
Please make sure you put your Immeritus screenname as your comment subject and also state whether you are an artist, author, poet, none of the above or all of the above!
Voted Challenges
1) How often have you participated in recent challenges? If you haven't participated lately, what's kept you from doing so (ie. school/work, no inspiration, same people winning)?
2) What do you think of the themes? Regarding Restricted Section challenges, have you felt uninspired about entering? Should we continue to offer voted challenges in the RS?
3) Do you feel voting has been fair on challenges? If not, do you think handling voting differently (ie. anonymously on LJ) would help?
4) How do you feel about anonymous entry submission? Would you be more inclined or less inclined to enter a challenge if you could do so anonymously? Why?
Concrit and Other Challenges
5) Are you satisfied with the feedback and concrit you've received in the Q&R threads? Has it helped at all?
6) Would you be interested in seeing more non-voting challenges (ie. the Fandom Appreciation Challenge from last April; the current 100 prompt challenge in the Restricted Sections)? Would you be more likely or less likely to participate if there wasn't a competition aspect to the challenge, one that would get you feedback and concrit alone?
6a) Were you aware that there is a 100 prompts challenge currently available in the Restricted Sections?
7) Would you be interested in seeing more fandom crossover type challenges or would you prefer we stick to Harry Potter?
Misc.
8) Would you like to see a 'suggestion box' for challenge/theme ideas, and/or for forum feature suggestions (ie. Fic Sniffers, discussions)?
9) Do you have any other thoughts on the challenges you'd like to share with us? Please speak up!
10) Do you have any other thoughts, comments, or ideas on the forums?
That's all! See, it wasn't so painful, was it? Thank you very much for taking the time to comment!
