DS Match Rules of Engagement

Today's the big day! In a very short time, we'll be posting the first of the DS Match stories! *rubs hands together excitedly* Are you ready?

Before we get started, here are some rules of play:

1. You must not vote or comment on stories from your own team. This applies even if you are a backup writer or have dropped out. You're more than welcome to discuss, admire and squee about your team's stories in locked posts here in your team comm.

2. You must not vote on stories from the opposing team. However, you're more than welcome to comment (politely) on stories from the other team, and to speculate about who wrote them.

3. You're more than welcome to point, prod or push your friends over to read and vote, and should feel free to pimp your team's efforts as madly as you like. *g* That said, please don't make a special fuss on the day it's your story. Discretion is the better part of anonymity.

4. You may want to use LJ's subscription facility to track comment notifications on your story when it's posted.

5. Only the mod making each post will be able to see the poll results, and she won't be sharing them with the teams or non-participants in any way. Please don't ask how your team is doing. We can't say.


In conclusion: You all rock like crazy rocking things! \♥/ \♥/ \♥/

Oh, ACK. I accidentally commented on the angst fic for a few minutes there. I knew we couldn't vote, but I only saw the post at [livejournal.com profile] ds_flashfiction and only saw the "don't comment on your own team's stories" just now. :::facepalm:::

Yeah, um, I'm dumb. :(

It was a totally honest comment, and did not mention any names, and didn't crow superiority or anything and it was only up for maybe fifteen minutes until I saw this? And I've deleted it.

I am so, so sorry. :(

Oops. I voted on the Romance story. Sorry! Can you delete my vote somehow?

I notice that several angsters have commented on the romance post, but the other way? Zero for 18. We win at politeness and fair play, anyway!

I noticed we comment more too. :D

I missed the part where I wasn't allowed to comment, not just not allowed to vote; I'll go delete the ones I did already!
