| round 4 - announcements |
[Apr. 18th, 2009|06:12 pm] |
Alright, ladies, I know you haven't heard much from me in a while and there are several very good reasons for that, especially if you follow my LJ.
In any case, the current issue we're dealing with are Aja's broken computer and some problems with the hosting at NQR. In short, there's been no way to upload the files, so I haven't really seen the need at harass you all in regards to your podfics. But since this is getting a bit ridiculous, I'm just going to upload everything to the mediafire folder and we'll archive everything on NQR when things get sorted out there.
The deadline is supposed to be this Tuesday, but since I haven't received any submissions (other than my own, lol), I'm assuming y'all need another week? I'm going to tentatively set the new deadline for Tuesday, April 28th. If anyone knows now that they'll need more time, speak up now. Also, keep in mind that BG fics are due on May 5th when you're considering your schedule.
Good luck everyone! |

| round 4 - BEGINS! |
[Feb. 28th, 2009|05:59 pm] |
Alright, the normal reader sign ups are officially closed. If you've neglected to make an addition or a correction to your initial sign up, I'll still allow it, but new sign ups will have to follow late sign ups rules.
You can still sign up at any time before the deadline for authors who haven't had any claims this round.
( authors available for late sign up this round )
This rule will not count for collaborations.
For example, right now ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) qem_chibati is looking for people to help podfic catwho's Fujiwara. You can still claim a chapter through the collab. post even though the author is (obvious since Qem already claimed it ;p) not on the late sign up list.
When you finish your podfic, attach and send it to ihikago@gmail.com. The subject should read: [Podficcer] Hikago Fic (by HikagoAuthor).
The contents of the e-mail should read--
Fic: ((title and link here))
Author: ((author's lj))
Read by: ((your lj)
Length: ((hours:minutes:seconds))
File size: ((in MBs))
Reader's notes: ((optional))
Save your podfic file as recordee-title.mp3 (ex: zoesque-wholenewapocalypse.mp3)
If the file is too large to send via e-mail, upload it to a free site like MediaFire.
For a full list of technical resources, please see this post. You may also be interested in visiting ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) podfic_tips.
The deadline for Round 4 is Tuesday, April 21st. You can send in your podfic at any time, as they will have rolling posting, and will put them up as soon as they're uploaded.
Thanks to bookshop for once again providing the webspace at NQR. For backup purposes, I've also uploaded all podfics from the first three rounds to MF, but ask that when linking, you direct people to the original LJ post, so they can comment. All tags should be up to date for the convenience of your browsing.
Good luck everyone! I can't wait to hear the results!

| round 4 - reader sign up post |
[Feb. 8th, 2009|02:19 pm] |
READER SIGN UPS
This is the post to sign up to be a podfic reader.
Readers may select up to five fics to podfic. To diversify the results, it is preferred that each reader not pick more than three fics from any one author. Collaborative works will still count as one for each contributor, and multi-chapter works also count as one (even if split into several files).
Please reply to THIS post with something resembling the following format:
Username:
e-mail/YM/best way to contact you:
Fics selected:
-Fic Name 1 – Author Name 1
-Fic Name 2 – Author Name 2
-Fic Name 3 – Author Name 3
Regular reader sign ups will end Tuesday, February 24th, 2009. However, late sign ups or participants who have already completed all of their claims, may request to podfic from authors who have not had any of their fics selected in the current round. Up to three fics may be late claimed, with no more than two being from the same author.
The same fic can be claimed by as many readers as are interested in reading it. There is no exclusive claiming.
( authors available for round 4 - cut for long )
All authors who requested to have their admission rolling, have been readded. If your information has changed or you wish to be removed, comment on the admin clean up post
If you wish to sign up for a fic not on this list, but the author is willing to give you permission to record their fic, please ask them to leave us a comment or e-mail, so we have record of it.
This round, I'm adding a collaborations post for anyone looking to team up or just get a snatch of help. Use it as you will.
The deadline for Round 4 will be Tuesday, April 21st, 2009. As always, extensions will be given out liberally, but keep in mind during your planning that the blind_go deadline will be May 5th.
If there's any other problem or question, comment here. ^^
Good luck everyone!

[Feb. 8th, 2009|02:38 pm] |
Here's a space for you guys to link up with each other if you'd like.
Are you looking for a collaborator to each read every other chapter of a long epic fic? Do you need a Waya voice for a bit of dialog that you just can't get your tongue around? Need someone to mix your podfic all nice? Willing to offer up your QEM-like sound effect abilities to readers who want to spice up their fic?
Well. This is the place to offer and find just what you're looking for. Or, you know, stalkerpin for the fun of it.
EXAMPLE:
For good or for evil... have fun, guys ;p |

[Feb. 8th, 2009|02:27 pm] |
Hey, guys! I'm going to post the reader sign ups in just a bit, but I felt that I needed a different space for authors to tweak their information if they'd like.
If you want to edit your information, fic achieve link, fics available, fics restricted, the fic you'd prefer to have read this round, some error I've made in any master post or tagging... whatever. Let me know here and I'll take care of it.
I've already deleted the preferred fics if they were done last round, so if you would like to have it reinstated on the list, please let me know.
Authors can still sign up at any time here. |
