Admin Post: [MOD POST] SHIRITORI RESHUFFLE AND SIGN UP

[bluedreaming]

It's winding up to the busy holiday/end-of-year season, along with people who've had changes in schedules and just a lot of general skipping and things, so we (mousapelli and bluedreaming) have decided to call a full reshuffle! For newcomers who haven’t gone through a full shuffle yet, it’s nothing dramatic, just a simple roll call: all you need to do is comment below saying “Yes I’m still in” or “No, I’m taking a break”. Please also let us know if you'd like to join the slow team (5 writing days instead of three), if you're on the slow team but would like to leave the slow team, or if you're on the slow team and would like to stay there. This is also the time to say whether you want to remain in sonic, leave sonic, or join sonic. You can also comment on any requests; we might not be able to fulfill all of them, but we’ll definitely take them into account (such as, please put me with JE people, or I like my team but maybe just shuffle us, or maybe a person or type of ending word you want to follow after). And, last but not least, if you’re currently a team captain, are you okay with remaining a captain? And if you’re not a captain but are interested in potentially being one, add that to your comment!

This is also the time to join shiritori! Just comment below indicating you’d like to join, and include any useful information (such as whether you’d also like to be tagged on twitter, and what your twitter is, or if you're only on LiveJournal). Welcome! Please tell your friends and link this wherever you’d like! Shiritori accepts all fandom writers as well as original fiction. Poetry, both fanfic and original, is also welcome. If it’s helpful, here’s the rules post.

During the reshuffle period, we let all the teams finish their last cycle before we start fresh again with the new team line-ups, so here’s where we’re at right now:
Team 1: oneforyourfire is up! (mid-team cycle)
Team 2: listea is up! (mid-team cycle)
Team 3: Team captain mousapelli is just starting a new cycle and will have one more run through as well.
Team 4: Team captain bluedreaming is just starting a new cycle and will have one more run through as well.
Team 5: 93rdfragment is up! (mid-team cycle)
Team 6: hunhunya is up! (end-team cycle)
Team Sonic: the latest sonic has already expired so see the note further down about the Team Sonic Reshuffle Free-for-all!

If you've already posted your turn and would like to play, you're welcome to join Team Sonic Reshuffle (see below) or the Round Robin! Everyone is welcome.

Let's aim to complete the roll call by the end of November. That gives us over two weeks, so I think that should be ample time for everyone to comment their status. Thanks for your cooperation!



Team Sonic Special Guideline:
As stated in the last reshuffle, team sonic special works exactly like team sonic, except that there's no three day rule. One of the mods will start off team sonic special (here's the story for this reshuffle period) and after that everyone is welcome to jump in. Any team sonic special stories posted will not expire until the new line up is announced, after which point all team sonic special stories will expire and a regular cycle of team sonic will begin. You do not need to be a member of team sonic to join team sonic special; anyone in shiritori is welcome/encouraged to participate. Team sonic special posts should be tagged *team sonic as usual, but in the title of your post, please put [team sonic special].

The first story of the Team Sonic Reshuffle Free-for-all is 病.

Please also feel free to ask any questions/make any comments here!

Note: captains (cairistiona, faded_lace, troubleseason, jojibear) please spread this to your team members in case they miss this.
