ALT slickfest screenshot slickfester’s q: Hi mods ! Sorry there are soooo many questions it’s a bit overwhelming for me 😭 what date do we need to submit the art ? I don’t understand the deadlines or submission instances, the guessing, etc… sorry slickfest’s answer: hihi!! the deadline for art submissions is the same as the one for fic submissions, so november 1st 00:00 KST, after your submission you will later on receive posting instructions from our mod team! if you feel like you won't be able to make the deadline, that's totally alright! you can submit an extension request here ^^ as for the guessing game, that's something that will begin after reveals start, you can read more about that here! if you have any further questions, do not hesitate to ask us here or dm/open a ticket on our discord so we can best help you ^^

ALT alterspring screenshot slickfester’s q: Hello beautiful mods, I have a question to which the answer is probably that I'm overthinking things, but as I'm writing I'm realizing that while I have hit all of the points in the prompt, it might not be in the way the prompter wanted/expected. Would it be best for me to rewrite some of it, or is it one of those things where once the prompt is claimed interpretation is in the writer's hands? Thanks! slickfest’s answer: hihi!! without knowing the prompt and the changes we unfortunately cannot give you a definitive answer as to whether or not you need to change some elements of your fic! however, we can tell you that, as a rule of thumb, as long as you've fulfilled the prompt in its entirety, you're free to write the story that you envisioned and add whatever you see fit! if you're unsure, you can always dm us so that we can best help you with the details ^^

ALT alterspring screenshot slickfester’s q: hiiii, i have a quick question: what time on the 1st is the deadline to submit our fics?? and most importantly, which timezone? 😭 i'd need the entire weekend to finish editing, and i fear i get blacklisted and won't be able to submit my fic at all if i'm like a couple of hours late slickfest’s answer: hihi!! all of our deadlines follow KST, so submissions will close on november 1st, at 00:00 KST!!! ^^

ALT alterspring screenshot slickfester’s question: Hi! If our originally requested extension date isn't going to work out, are we able to submit a new form with a revised date? Thanks for the hard work 💗 slickfest’s answer: hihi!! yes you can submit another form! just make sure you let us know in the notes that this is a second request ^^

ALT alterspring screenshot. slickfester’s q: hi hi mods! so if we have an extension but for whatever reason we can’t finish writing in time do we submit the drop form and then have to reclaim in the off season? slickfest’s answer: hihi!! yes, unfortunately if you can’t submit your fic by the hard deadline you will have to drop out!! but as you’ve said there’s always off season if you’d like (just remember that off season doesn’t have a claiming process, so if it’s not submitted by the deadline, anyone can also write for the same prompt if they want to!)

ALT screenshot of alterspring. slickfester question: How does guessing work? slickfest answer: hello! author guessing is done through weekly google forms with quiz settings! more instructions will be available when reveals start. thank you!
