Bonus Round 2: Tic-Tac-Toe



Tic-Tac-Toe


SASO 2017 is over, but this round is perpetually open to new fills (no new prompts).


Get three in a row! That's the goal of this bonus round. Inspired by a fanwork event type called kink bingo, this round encourages you to create and fill out themed prompt cards.


Please read this whole post before commenting to ensure that your team gets the most points possible. There's a lot of text here, but if you read carefully and follow the instructions step by step, you will be okay.


RULES
Please refer to the first comment thread of this post for an example of how this round works.

PROMPTING

  1. Select a ship to create your prompt card about. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Haruki & Kazuma). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Haruki/Kazuma). Please don't say "Any pairing," either!

  2. Visit this card generator.
    • Here is a visual guide to using it.
    • The large text box is where you can list prompts if you have your own ideas. Please list at least 9 prompts; you can list more if you want. (The generator says you need at least 24, but it's lying.) Single words or short phrases are better than sentences.
    • Otherwise, you can use the dropdown menu found right below it. Note: some of these prompts lists are NSFW. (NSFW prompts are a-ok as long as you tag for it.) If you don't like some of the options that appear in a prompt list, you can delete them.
    • Text prompts only, please. Also, each card square must be unique—don't list the same prompt 9 times.
    • In "Configuration Options," make sure you select 3x3 and (Normal prompt). This is the most important step!
    • Leave the tic-tac-toe card with its default colors, so everyone can read it clearly.
    • Click the "Create a bingo card" button.
    • Scroll down to see the card that was created for you. If you don't like the prompts it picked, you can reroll by clicking "Create a bingo card" again.
    • When you're satisfied, scroll further down the page until you see a textarea box full of HTML.
  3. Copy and paste the HTML from the box and into the body of your prompt comment, then post!

FILLING

Fill prompts by selecting an individual square to create fanwork for, then leaving a responding comment to the prompt with your newly-created work. (Optional:) If you can fill three squares from a prompt in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line, you get a tic-tac-toe (and an additional point bonus)! You can also just fill prompts as you please and get standard points.
  • Prompt squares are labeled as follows:
    A1 B1 C1
    A2 B2 C2
    A3 B3 C3
  • If you're trying for tic-tac-toe, you cannot combine squares into one fill. If your fill can satisfy multiple squares, pick the most relevant square: e.g., one square is sailing and another is pirates and you make a fill about pirates sailing, it's mostly pirates so put down the pirates square.
  • Each fill must stand alone as an individual piece, but all your fills can slot into a larger universe if you'd like.
  • You cannot fill a prompt square more than once, but you can fill every square on a tic tac toe card if you want to.
  • You cannot work with your teammates to get a tic-tac-toe. Only individually achieved tic-tac-toes get the bonus.
  • Multiple people can fill the same prompt square. You cannot "block" others from getting tic-tac-toe.
  • Remember to also follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.
  • Here is a prompt/fill index for your convenience.

If you see anyone breaking the code of conduct (e.g., causing drama, being rude) anywhere (not just DW), please contact the mods immediately.


SCORING
These numbers apply to your team as a whole, not each individual teammate. Make as many prompts/fills as you want!

For prompts: 5 points for each tic-tac-toe card (maximum of 50 prompt points per team per round)

For fills:
First 4 fills by any member of your team: 20 points each
Fills 5-10: 15 points each
Fills 11-20: 5 points each
Fills 21-50: 2 points each
Fills 51+: 1 point each
Tic-tac-toe Bonus: 2 points each for the first 12 achieved by your team

All scored content must be created new for this round.


Etc.
If you're hunting through the prompts looking for what to fill, a good trick is to view top-level comments only (see the line of links below this post).

Have a question? Check The FAQ first. If you still need help, feel free to contact the mods. Happy fanworking!

***

There are remnants of his basketball days still in him, and that's not always such a bad thing. Mayuzumi will gladly take the ability to let his presence fade into a crowd, he thinks, as he makes his way to the station in full cosplay. Most people would draw attention dressed in a bright green jacket, fox ears and a fox tail, but nobody bats an eyelid as Mayuzumi walks past.

He isn't really the type to cosplay, or to go to conventions at all, but he's meeting up with two of his friends that he's been chatting with online lately, and they somehow managed to talk him into doing a group cosplay. They'd promised to get the cosplay made and sent to him in time so he didn't have to make any of the effort himself, and Mayuzumi supposes that he likes the character enough to cosplay him anyway.

He's at the station, about to walk through the ticket gates, when he hears a soft, "Chihiro?"

Mayuzumi's blood runs cold. He doesn't want to turn around because he knows exactly who that voice belongs to, and he wishes he didn't. He wishes it were anyone else in the world. He would take disappointing his mother in full fox boy cosplay over this.

He turns around and standing there looking at him is, unfortunately, Akashi Seijuurou.

"This is a new look on you," Akashi says mildly, tilting his head to the side, the ghost of a smile on his lips.

"Since when do you catch the train?" Mayuzumi asks, not knowing what else to say. "Don't you have drivers to take you anywhere you want, young master?"

"No need to be so defensive," Akashi smiles. "I'm simply taking the train to a convention today."

Mayuzumi's stomach drops out. "No you're not."

"Koutarou insisted that I go," Akashi says. "He said that I would find something very interesting."

Mayuzumi doesn't know how Hayama found out about this, or how he managed to talk Akashi into going, but there is going to be blood. Mayuzumi swears it.

"Our train arrives in four minutes," Akashi prompts him, and Mayuzumi sighs defeatedly, swiping his card at the ticket barriers and walking to the platform with Akashi.

It would be awkward enough standing on the platform with Akashi as normal, but it's even worse in cosplay. Mayuzumi has no idea what to do or say.

"Will you let me touch your tail?" Akashi asks.

"What? No."

Akashi is silent, but his disappointment rings out clearly all the same.

Mayuzumi sighs loudly. "Fine."

Reaching for it, Akashi strokes it like he would a pet. Mayuzumi has to look away.

"Did you make this yourself?"

"No," Mayuzumi replies, still not looking at Akashi. "A friend did."

"You have friends?" Akashi asks, and Mayuzumi is almost too offended to notice the possessive tone to Akashi's words.

"I have friends that I play games with, yes," Mayuzumi snaps.

"You played basketball with me. Does that make us friends?"

"No," Mayuzumi replies, feeling his face burn.

He is going to murder Hayama.
