Hey Losers - it's time! Don't forget to look at the rules/timelines before you sign up.
For these sign-ups, (one of) the bang creator(s) should sign up with a top-level comment, following the guidelines below. If the teams have more than one bang, the second (and third, and fourteenth) bang creator should sign up in reply to the top level comment so the whole team remains in a single thread.
We're asking that ONLY BANG CREATORS SIGN UP RIGHT NOW so that we can get a look at how many teams we will have and allow people to make sure they can participate at a level they're comfortable with. Complement sign-ups will happen from April 23, 2014.
COMPLEMENT AND CHEERLEADER SIGN-UPS ARE LIVE! Please sign up for teams below.
If you want to ask about a team or hash out more details please do it at the party post. Please don’t try to sign up for complements yet. In the past, we've done all signups at the same time; this year, we are separating them to give complement creators a chance to see the entire list of bangs before making a commitment. This will also help the mods make sure everyone has a full team even if they missed the comment party and don't know anyone in the fandom yet. (If you get excited and accidentally sign up early, don't worry: we will delete that comment for you, and you can re-post once signups are open.)
When posting your bang as a top-level comment, please do the following:
1. Put the team name in the subject line.
2. Include the following information in the body:
** A brief description of the type of bang (macaroni castle, digital art of Aisha skydiving, post-apocalyptic Clay/Roque fic).
** Link to your party post thread, if there is further information over there.
** A note about whether you are okay with people jumping on board with complements, or if you would prefer they go to the party post to discuss first.
** Plans for team organization/activities/scheduling, if you know it.
Handy bang sign-up text:
COMPLEMENTERS/CHEERLEADERS: Please respond to the bang comment below with your type of complement/cheerleading offering.
Handy sign-up text:
We will make sure every bang has a complement - so if you didn't have an offer over on the comment party sign-up, you can still sign up here. We will make it work!
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact a mod.

Team Push-Café (Losers-Push crossover)

Okay for complementers to jump in, or should they visit the party thread first? everyone is welcome however they want to join!
Plans for team organization/activities/scheduling, if known: um, not really planned (we're bad at planning), but the bang fic will be written in google docs, and anyone who wants an invitation can hang out there and comment and poke. I'm also basically always on gchat, and my co-writer is when she can? If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to comment with them.
There is already a complement original song in the works already. Come have cracky, cracky fun with us?

Date: 2014-05-31 07:22 pm (UTC)Notes: So, I went gluten-free last year, and one of the very few things I miss is bakery. I've been meaning to try my hand at gluten-free baking for a while now, so if you're willing, I'd love to try a few things and see if I can make gluten-free versions of things they might have at the bakery (currently on the docket: cupcakes, a homemade bread/roll recipe that I'm trying to rework, and brownies - other suggestions welcome!).
(FYI, my AO3 username is kisahawklin, so that's the one that's on check-ins, but that's me.)

Re: Team Push-Café (Losers-Push crossover)
Date: 2014-05-31 07:44 pm (UTC)But yeah, if there is anything you want to try, we can totally have a bored Jensen give it a shot! <3
Re: Team Push-Café (Losers-Push crossover)
Date: 2014-05-31 07:48 pm (UTC)ETA: Oh, an no need to add my recipes to the story! I'm doing that mostly for myself, we can tie in through items that work on both sides, like the crêpes and croissants. :D
Re: Team Push-Café (Losers-Push crossover)
Date: 2014-05-31 08:24 pm (UTC)Unless there's a TON of recipes, it's usually not that hard to add food scenes to fic. After all, everybody's gotta eat. I've actually done it before. In fact, I did it last time I did a bang...

... ... ...I did not expect that to become a pattern...

Date: 2014-05-31 09:44 pm (UTC)I'm pretty sure brownies and cupcakes are global at this point, yeah. You're not gonna be able to escape them. Plus, they're both fairly easy to make, even in big batches, which is a plus when you're making them commercially. :D
Re: Team Push-Café (Losers-Push crossover)
Date: 2014-06-01 07:21 am (UTC)Kate suggested looking up things to read for a podfic about chocolate, and I came across the magnificence of this site...
It's an encyclopedia of terms...

Re: Team Push-Café (Losers-Push crossover)
Date: 2014-06-01 10:15 am (UTC)Oh wow, you clearly intend for me to do nothing but read food porn for, like, a week, huh?
I've only looked at, like, two letters so far, but I was surprised at how many of the terms I was already familiar with. Yaaaay, chocolate <3
(Okay, off to do productive writing stuff! food porn later)

Re: Team Push-Café (Losers-Push crossover)
Date: 2014-06-02 01:52 pm (UTC)But yeah, find a Baskin Robbins in Japan, and they will have crêpes. They're overly fond of whipped cream, though, to an almost insane degree :/
