cordeliadelayneJust a quick bit of housekeeping to say we have had a backup comm on Dreamwidth for a while now which you can find here. We have no intention of moving, but it's there as a Plan B if needed.

Challenge 187: Anniversary & Mod Post
Dec. 1st, 2010 12:02 amcordeliadelayneThis week's challenge is Anniversary.

Also, on a modly note, I've updated the spoiler policy in the profile. Same as it was last time the show was actually airing, just make sure to put a warning on your drabble if it takes place during series 4 or 5 so as not to spoil anyone until at least a couple of weeks after the last ep has aired in the UK. We also won't be issuing any s4 or 5 specific challenges until at least a month after the last ep has aired in the UK.
And secondly, the new characters that we know about now have tags and as usual we'll create pairing specific tags as and when the need arises.

Also, I rejigged the user info a little. No real changes except that series 3 spoiler warnings are no longer mandatory. Of course feel free to keep using them, I just won't be prodding anyone who doesn't.

Challenge 100 is Over!!
Apr. 8th, 2009 12:20 amcordeliadelayneChallenge 100 is officially over. Give me and my helper elf a moment to calculate and check all the drabbles and I'll edit this post to let you know who's won and how many amazing drabbles we've totalled this week!
EDIT:
And our winner issunsetdawn20 with an amazing 18 drabbles! Well done! I'll PM you with prize options and we can sort out what you'd like :D
We had some fabulous contributions - canon characters, fanon characters, AU's, we even had creatures getting involved in a pairing I know I'm going to have trouble forgetting *g*. Thank you all so much. Here's a rundown of the statistics for you:
rodlox wrote 1 drabble
slashybits wrote 1 drabble
doylefan22 wrote 1 drabble
lukadreaming wrote 2 drabbles
nietie wrote 2 drabbles
rain_sleet_snow wrote 5 drabbles
curia_regis wrote 6 drabbles
lsellersfic wrote 7 drabbles
fififolle wrote 9 drabbles
fredbassett wrote 10 drabbles
telperion_15 wrote 10 drabbles
lilyroseharper wrote 11 drabbles
That makes 83 drabbles!
And for all of you there are a set of icons under the cut! These are only snaggable by the above people. And of course onlysunsetdawn20 is allowed the ones that say "I Won..." on them *g*
( Icons! )
It has been an utterly fabulous week here on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
primeval100 and I've thoroughly enjoyed reading all the drabbles - though I have to admit I haven't caught up with today's influx yet! And it's been especially lovely to see so many new faces taking part.
Also, let's have a thank you to the commenters. Comments are always ♥ and I know all the writers have appreciated the support. You too play a vital role in the running of this place, and maybe we can tempt a few of you to write in the future as well :D
And a special thanks tojoereaves for helping me collate all the data!
In a moment I'll post the next challenge announcement. I'll also be updating our tags, since some new and varied pairing combinations have occurred. If you spot something you think needs a tag, let me know \o/

Mod Post: Change of Rules
Nov. 12th, 2008 09:04 pmcordeliadelayneI'm briefly interrupting your regular drabbling to say that on reflection I've decided to allow crossovers to be written for any challenge you please. Primeval is just one of those shows that cries out for them. I can't see this being a problem really, but just make sure that a Primeval character is the main focus. Thank you, all!
Rules are, as ever, in the community profile.

And in case you hadn't noticed, we now have a "character: creature" tag, for when you want to write from a creature's pov. Except for Rex, who's had his own tag since the beginning. *g*

Challenge 76: "It's So...Big"
Oct. 14th, 2008 11:52 pmcordeliadelayneThis week's challenge is "It's So...Big". Who's saying it, why they're saying it, what they're saying it about, all totally up to you.

And a little bit of housekeeping.
Firstly, I've modified the community profile.
And secondly, we have two new affiliates:slashthedrabble, a multifandom slash drabble challenge community and slashtheimage, a multifandom slash fanfic challenge community that uses images as prompts. If anyone else has a community they'd like to affiliate, please leave your request as a comment to this post.

Challenge 70: Behind the Scenes
Sep. 2nd, 2008 09:31 pmcordeliadelayneThis week's challenge is behind the scenes.
We always focus on the team fighting the dinosaurs but what about the little people behind the scenes - the university secretary trying to get Cutter to attend his seminars, the IT support at the ARC dealing with Connor's tinkering... Here's the chance for an outsider POV on the team and its work.
We do have a "character: original" tag you can use for this purpose. I've also created tags for the new characters for series 3 that we know about so far and tweaked the userinfo. As always any time you think up a pairing that we don't have a tag for yet let me know.

Mod Post: Poll Results
Aug. 11th, 2008 12:10 amcordeliadelaynePoll results are in
The majority seem happy with the way things are - thank you to everyone who took part and who contacted me both on and off the comm.
Business as usual.

Business as usual.
cordeliadelayneI've edited the poll post, but not the poll itself with the following, posted here to make sure you all see:
Just to be clear, if we go for the first option "post only to the challenge" we will still have post to past challenge weeks.
If we go for the second option, there will still be a challenge every week.
Votes will be discounted if vote rigging occurs. No interest in Primeval for one thing. No membership of the comm for another - if you would like to join great, please do so and feel free to participate, if you're just clicking ticky boxes, sorry, games up. And joining then leaving after the vote period is over, will not count either; I will be monitoring membership - as of writing we have 65 members and 63 watchers.
If a change is voted for we will have a trial period to see that it works okay. And that people who voted for the change participate. There's no point changing purely for the sake of change.
You should be able to edit your answer to the poll up till the deadline should you so wish.
Any one unhappy with these amendments may, as always, leave at any time. It's a drabble community, not a prison. Welcome to life on the interwebs!

cordeliadelayneHello and welcome to primeval100! I figured every other possible fandom has a drabble community, so why shouldn't we? And as we're assured of a second series the fandom is bound to grow.
Bear with me as I mess around with the layout and the tags etc. If any clever person would like to make a header/layout and/or user icon for the comm I would be grateful enough to pay you in fic!
Our first challenge is Introductions. This will last until next Tuesday when the next challenge will be posted. All the relevant rules can be found here.
Any questions please ask!
