Find the Fanon Challenge
Oct. 23rd, 2010 03:05 am
The Rules
How well do you know your fandom, shipper nation? Let's find out! Below is a list of 20 fanon creations--fic, graphics, fanmixes, and other fun stuff--relating to our fair pilots. Your mission? Travel through LJ and the web collecting links to these items, and be the first to complete the list and post it here in the comments! ETA: I've decided belatedly since there are actual prizes involved to screen the comments. I'll unscreen any replies to general questions that could help the group.
1) You can choose to hunt alone or form up on someone's six for support/faster kill time, but the first three individuals or teams to submit a correct and completed list win a prize! Prize winners can choose from: a fic request, a vid request, a 2-month 140 extra userpics package, or 500 LJ tokens.
2) There are multiple correct "answers" for every item. Some will be harder to find than others, but rest assured, every item does exist somewhere out there in LJ land.
3) All items collected MUST be pre-existing. You can not make a new item to fit the description and submit that.
4) Make sure you submit a link to where each and every item can be found. When it says "name this...", name it and ALSO provide a link to where it can be found.
5) Any questions? Leave 'em in the first thread of the comments!

(Also, can you number the items so it's easier to talk about them with my partner in crime and will help when I/we come begging for hints?) :):)

“Visually, it combines all the elements I wanted to achieve – the swirled, dynamic twists that represent exactly those same maelstroms that Starbuck and Apollo fly through practically on a daily basis, and the chevron, arrow-like cables that bear more than a passing resemblance to the Vipers they fly.”
