Prompts Submissions and Prompts Claiming Rules

1. Anybody can submit a prompt, with no limit on how many one person can submit.

2. You do not need to submit a prompt to claim one.

3. Contact the mods if you wish to claim a prompt after the claiming period and we'll see if we can work something out.

4. There will be a limit to two claims per prompt; one claim for art and one claim for fic.

5. You can only claim another prompt after you have submitted your first prompt.

6. All claims will be screened.

7. Please do not claim your own submitted prompt.

8. Podficcers obviously do not claim one of the prompts, but will follow a slightly different set of instructions (to be detailed in the claiming post). The short of it is: When claiming they must provide a working link to the fic they have chosen as well as we require that the podficcer has acquired permission to podfic the fic in question, if the author does not have a public permission statement in their profile.
