Have a question? Here are some answers on more common things that you might be interested it!
Why one and a half year minimum?
Someone's wriitng style, interpretation of characters and many other notable things usually cahnge after a year or two. I've noticed this in myself and some of the people I know. Different people change in different time frames, so this speciifc time frame was given so that there can be seen some difference in the original and rewritten works. It's understandable tha some people change and evovle faster, but to respect people who might only notice a difference after a longer period of time, this rule is in place.
The fic I want to rewrite is still one one and a half years old as of now, but will be during the event. Can I still participate?
As long as the fic itself is posted after the one and a half year mark, it's perfectly fine!
Does the fic have to be just a rewrite of it with my updated style or can I still change details, add or remove scenes?
As long as the main plot is mostly similar to the original one, the fic will be fine.
The original fic i want to rewrite was never finished. Do I have to finish it or do I rewrite up to the point the original ended?
For this event, it's only impotant that the part that's being rewritten is posted, everything after that is up to you.
I'm rewriting a longer fic and I'm not sure i'll be able to finish it by the deadline.
As long as one changer is finished, the fic can be posted in the community! Just keep in mind that next year you won't be able to post it once it's finished.
The fic I'm rewriting isn't posted anywhere online. Do I need to post it?
There's no need! We will assume in good faith that the fic meets the one and a half year criteria.
