FAQ

What is a big bang?It's a collaborative event in which a writer and an artist are combined to form a team. There is a minimum word count (which varies from bang to bang). First, the writers will come up with summaries and submit them, with appropriate tags and content warnings.
Then, the artists will then have limited time to rank their top summaries from a list of anonymous summaries.
An event lineup with the most suitable combinations is then created.
All participants will have to participate in regular check-ins with the mod team during creation period to ensure that they are on pace to finish their pieces and are communicating with their partners.
Do we need a discord for this event?
—yes! the majority of the communication will take place via discord, and all updates and announcements will be made there as well! please make sure to create an account if you're interested to join the event!
Do we need an ao3 account for this event?
