So I unfortunately have
just been able to update the Dreamwidth blog today because (for those not on the WIPBB Discord) my laptop started dying around the end of April and then finally kicked the bucket about two weeks ago, so I took it into a repair shop and am still waiting to get it back due to it having to be fixed in part by a third party and said third party having a backlog. So while I can get on Discord and Tumblr because they're app-based on my phone, I'm having issues with certain sites on my mobile browser, including Dreamwidth. So my apologies for not informing you ahead of time that
sign-ups for the 2026 rounds of both WIP Big Bang and WIP Reverse Bang have been extended to June 1st! So you've still got a few more days to sign up if you haven't already.
Check-In #1 is also now live! Please remember that all four check-ins are
not mandatory so if you do not do it or you accidentally miss one of them, it's totally fine. This form is used for both WIPBB and WIPRB, so please fill it in once for each project you are completing for either Bang*. You should be using a different unique check-in ID for each project if you are completing multiple projects, so if that's not the case send an email to the mod email account (wipbigbang@gmail.com) with check-in ID substitutions you may need and then do the check-ins with the new IDs you want to use (I currently have not set up the spreadsheet because I still do not have my laptop fixed and back in my possession yet, but as soon as I get it I'll switch stuff over).
The form is up at https://forms.gle/9Ldn6qzH3TMs6BdM6.* If you want to check in with one project (if you are doing multiple) and simply list the rest of your check-in IDs in the Notes to Mods section, we will accept that as well!![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png){kind=small}
fandom_empire_workplace until Sunday, May 24, 18.00 UTC, but I will allow belated works until I've made the closing post. Countdown here.![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}

Comment Bingo Round 9 Sign-Ups!
If you haven't claimed your Round 8 banner, please go here.
This is the sign-up post to get a bingo card for the seventh round of Comment Bingo. Please leave the username(s) that you will be using to comment and you will be assigned a card. You don't need a Dreamwidth account to participate. If you want more details (including opt out rules), the following links should hopefully clear things up.
There is also a 'question' thread in the comments that you can reply to for any lingering doubts or queries.
It was inspired by the Comment Bingo that
We all know how good comments can make a creator feel, and even a 'this is great' can sometimes brighten their day. Whether you're a newbie or been in fandom for years, don't comment at all, sometimes comment, or comment all the time, this is for you. Maybe it will help you discover stories you wouldn't have otherwise, ones that you loved and forgot about and/or fics you somehow missed. Forgot to leave a comment before? Want a reason to comment again? Now is the time!
