Isumi Team Battle Drabble Post

There are going to be lots of ways to earn points this month, many of which won't involve writing stories at all, but it's not a team battle without a Drabble Prompts Post!

You can earn points by:
- Prompting a prompt that involves Isumi - 1 point (don't worry about putting your team names down - I'll match from the sign up post.)
(you can leave other prompts, just they won't count for points.)
- all fills are worth - 3points

With the following bonuses:
- extra 2 points if your fill goes over 500 words.
- extra 5 points if your fill involves Isumi!

You don't have to be part of a team to participate - but we'd love to have you join in!

Theme: Isumi - team batle icon post!

There are going to be lots of ways to earn points this month, many of which won't involve writing stories at all, but it's not a team battle without a Drabble Prompts Post. That's tomorrow. :3

This post is for the icontest for this month!

How it works:
The theme is Isumi of course!
- You can post up to ten icons in the screened comments here - which is not this post - please keep them secret! (although you can say that you've submitted)
- each submitted icon is worth 1 point.
- icons are due by April 22nd.
- I will then put up a voting post to decide the winners
- first place =25 points
- 2nd place = 15 points
- 3rd = 5 points

I'll make bonus banners for the icontest winners as well!

Requirements:
Format: png, jpg, gif
Physical size: 100x100 px (or less)
File size: I believe LJ and DW have a limit of 40 KB for uploading icons - so please keep under that size

FAQ:
Can I submit my icons separately or do I have to do all ten at once?
Yes you can submit icons separately,
I just submitted ten, but I like this one better...?
Yes you can swap icons out if you decide you don't like but only 10 can be considered for points.
Can I do shippy icons?
Yes of course. Other characters can be involved it just has to touch tangentially upon the theme of Isumi (so it could even be a different character with text about Isumi or I don't know, be uh, creative?)
Sources?
Gimp is an opensource image manipulation program and has a lot of sources here: http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/
Some communities that may be helpful!

icon_tutorial

good_tutorial

coloring_help

icon_extras

icon_textures and there are many others as well!

You don't have to be part of a team to participate - but we'd love to have you join in! (Yeongha-Ha is so lonely XD)

Drabble fest results!

raikushi pointed out to me that I had forgotten to count one of her fics, for the prompt: anyone doing anything that isn't related to go (or any board-game)

So in fact, the tie I announced was not really a tie, and Team Korea won the drabble fest. However, since it was my mistake, and since Team China submitted the most drabbles for the tiebreaker, I am going to declare both as winners.
CONGRATULATIONS TEAM CHINA AND TEAM KOREA!
Honorable mention goes to

raikushi for answering the most prompts (5).

Team China:

esmenet,

issenllo,

lacygrey,

aiwritingfic
Team Korea:

raikushi,

blue_cage,

ariadne_chan
Team Japan:

qem_chibati,

jetsam,

takemyrevolution,

hostilecrayon

Members of the two winning teams will get 20 Dreamwidth points each!

Here are the three tiebreaker fics:

aiwritingfic:

Shirakawa, professionalism
Zhao Shi, "the naturalist"

raikushi:

Ochi, "the little king"

Thank you to everyone who played! (And thanks for your patience with my slow updates and counting errors!)

Be on the lookout for a new meta thread this Friday!

Drabble fest!: Touya versus Morishita

If May 5th and

blind_go fics have put you in the Hikago mood, why not have a drabble fest?

Leave a prompt (anonymous commenting is enabled if you want to request anonymously) in the comments, and reply to other prompts with fics! (Or art, vids, icons...any form of fanwork is eligible.)

To make it a little more exciting, I thought we could add in a little friendly team competition. Prompt-fillers, please indicate in a comment whether you are on Team Touya or Team Morishita, and earn a point for each prompt you fill.

The same prompt can be filled more than once. If you're filling prompts anonymously, just make sure to indicate the team somewhere in your comment.

I'll tally up the results next week (May 14 at 6 PM PST), along with links to all the filled prompts. Members on the winning team will get 20 Dreamwidth Points each!
