DPP: Back with a bang!
Aug. 29th, 2011 07:07 pmHey there shipper nation!
It's so nice to see you all again! I haven't had as much time for DPP recently as I would have liked, but this week I am taking the wheel so I have to make time. And like the cylons I have a (wacky, slightly ridiculous, probably won't work at all but I'll give it a shot anyway and then claim that whatever happens it was what I meant to do) plan.
I do hereby declare this week to be party week, and as such, I would like to play some games. Games are fun, everyone can take part, AND, you win prizes.
Today's post has three seperate portions.
1) RAFFLE TICKETS
This week's games shall be filled with fun prizes for people to win, including fics, graphics, gifs, banners, and maybe some other stuff too, but I am anticipating that not all of the prizes will be claimed. As such, At the end of the week I shall be holding a raffle for the unclaimed prizes left over in my magic box. Anyone and everyone can enter the raffle, just reply to the comment marked "RAFFLE TICKETS" below. Anyone who comments will be assigned ten tickets which I will draw using a randomiser on Saturday.
2) BINGO CARDS
I thought it might be fun if we played a couple of rounds of Pilots themed bingo on saturday/sunday, I know a lot of people are going to D*C so I'm sure I'm not going to have massive turn out, but if you are up for it, even if you don't know what you're doing at the weekend but might potentially want to play, please pick ten squares from the list below and reply with them to the comment marked "BINGO CARDS" below. Time/Day of bingo can be finalised later if people decide they want to play. There will of course be prizes.

3) TODAY'S GAME
Ok, so this is the portion that I don't know is going to work, but we'll give it a try and see.
Today's game is What Happens Next?
In about an hour or so I will release the first of a series of screencaps/gifs in the comments, each showing a portion of a scene. Your job, shipper nation, is to tell me what happens next.
As I am aware that most people know the show fairly well there will also be follow up questions regarding each scene.
The first person to give me the answer to the scene AND the follow up questions in one comment wins the prize for that scene.
Today's prizes are all short fics relating to the scene in question.
I HOPE this all makes sense, if not let me know in the comments, there will be a questions comment as well.
Bingo cards and raffle tickets will remain open all week, however, today's game is limited to today, if people don't claim today's prizes today then they go into the raffle.
Ok, keep your eye on the comments for the first round of questions, and have fun!

From:ROUND ONE!
Date: 2011-08-29 07:12 pm (UTC)We'll start with a relatively easy one so that everyone can get the hang of it.
So, can you tell me:
In this scene from You Can't Go Home Again, what happens next?
And since I'm sure you all know already,
Follow up questions:
1)What colour tape is the word written in?
2)What does Lee say about the way the Raider is flying?
As it's an easy one I can only accept Lee's EXACT words, so choose them carefully! First person to get all three answers correct wins round one!
And I'm sure no one will because you're all honorable people, but please refrain from using reference materials to get the answers, no internets, no dvds/blu-rays/downloads/streams, that way's no fun!
Re: ROUND ONE!
Date: 2011-08-29 07:20 pm (UTC)2 Yellow
3 This thing is flying with some serious attitude.

From:ROUND TWO!
Date: 2011-08-29 07:47 pm (UTC)In this scene, Baltar beats Starbuck at Triad.
Can you tell me:
1) What is his winning hand?
2) What does he do to celebrate?
3) What does he give her as a consolation prize?
Good Hunting folks!

And the follow up question is:
1) what does Lee do to get out of the situation?

Questions:
1) What does Lee say when he catches the ball?
2) How many times does Kara ask for it back?
3) What does he do with the ball when she tells him she got it on Caprica?
4) How many times does Kara say the words, "you love me?"
