Countdown to Hikago Day

[troisroyaumes]

After some brainstorming in the previous post about Hikago Day activities, we've decided to hold a few celebrations here at hikarunogo.

The first is going to be a post everyday as we count down to May 5. Posts can be anything related to Hikago: meta, friending/love memes, silly polls, picspam, fanwork rec lists, 'ship or character manifestos, etc. It can even be as something simple as a Hikago-related trivia question for the comm members to answer. If you're interested in joining the countdown, sign up by leaving a comment claiming one of the dates below and a brief description of what you plan to post. You can claim more than one date!

I WOULD LIKE TO DO A SILLY POLL

how about in a week, on the 22nd (Day 14)

I will try 2 come up with things for a silly poll by then :D

[qem_chibati]

Apr 25/Day -10:

This is a public holiday for me, so I can do something on this day for sure.

[chagrined]

I can also do a friending meme maybe? any date really. do ppl think it'd be better to do a friending meme earlier, or later on? i guess it's a good icebreaker to have early, but otoh when you do it later maybe more ppl will have joined in the activities by then.

[flonnebonne]

Fanart! May 2, please. Going to give myself lots of time. -_-

[troisroyaumes]

Hm, that's a good question. I am leaning towards earlier, just because I want to make sure we have someone for everyday this week, but I see the argument for later too! I'll leave it up to you to decide?

[chagrined]

Okay, in that case I'll post one on the 18th!

[mmmdraco]

Argh. Give me the 19th? I'll do a fanworks thing where people can say what they're looking for and we can all try to give links to things that work?

[degrees]

I'll take May 3rd for Hikago fanfic mad libs XD

[chagrined]

OH GOSH WHAT AN INSPIRED IDEA FTW

[troisroyaumes]

Awesome idea! XD

[daisyface]

........I am so excited for this. *_____*

[qem_chibati]

I can follow this up on the 20th with obscure canon finders? (where in canon can I find this scene, etc.)

[degrees]

Okay I'll also take April 26th for a superlative poll and April 30th for a "who would win in a fight between x and y" poll

[troisroyaumes]

!!! You keep coming up with the best ideas! <3

[daisyface]

I'll take Sunday (Apr 21/Day -14) with TBD content.


Anyone have a preference for beta finder, best of anime watch, or WIP amnesty post?

[troisroyaumes]

I vote for best of anime watch!

[daisyface]

Watch it is! Now I just need an awesome graphic...

[daisyface]

We're going to do the Hokuto Cup Watch on Tuesday (Apr 23/Day -12)!

[troisroyaumes]

Thank you for hosting these rewatch sessions!

[qem_chibati]

Snagging April 27 and May 1st for TBA things.

/this comes out of the Qem is up to evil things. Glorious things. You'll just have to wait and see things because otherwise it won't be as fun. For Qem. Things.

Claiming May 4th to do the finals of the superlative poll!

[tuulentupa]

Late to the party! Oh well, better late than never, they claim. I blame my vacation, and wonky internets. But at least there seems to be lots of fun things to go through here, now. ^^

[qem_chibati]

Isn't it exciting and fun? :D

[tuulentupa]

Yes! I'm trying to tell myself I should go to bed now and not start reading the posts - it's 15 past 1 am here, and I do have work tomorrow... (Just finished a very rough first draft of a fic I hope to be posting on Hikago day. Been writing it for, I dunno, three or four hours now, and am feeling kinda brainded. But I reached the end! :D)

[qem_chibati]

The posts will be waiting for you tomorrow - and yay looking forward to the hikago fic! :D
