Expressions of interest

[kerravonsen]

I am considering whether I will run a gen_remix ficathon; like remix_redux but gen only. The rules would be similar to RemixRedux, but all the qualifying stories would have to be gen (and the remixes also).

It won't, however, be worth doing if there aren't enough folks interested. I know there's a huge number of folks who do Remix, but that doesn't mean that anyone would necessarily be interested in doing both, or in doing a gen remix instead.

ETA: By "What minimum story length?" I mean, the length of stories that have to be written, not the length of qualifying stories. I'm assuming that the stories-which-qualify rule would be as for RemixRedux (500 words).

I put "no pairing" for the definition of gen question...because that seems to me to be the clearest division between an anything-goes ficathon like the original Remix, and a gen version.

Though I could certainly have fun remixing some het stories into gen. Would that be acceptable under this definition? (I'm going off the mini-discussion you and Astro had above.)

I guess it would depend on whether the plot of the story was amenable to that sort of remixing -- remember, the plot has to stay the same. Otherwise, I guess, in theory, it would be okay.

Yeah, I'm inclining that way, because it seems the clearest, and least controversial.
