☆★ CHECK-IN #2: L'ID EN ROSE ☆★

[iddybangmod]

Iiiiiiit's showtime! Step right, step right up, for Iddy Check-in #2 is here! How are things going? Come tell us all about id! (A reminder that if you do not show up to at least one of our two check-ins, you will be automatically dropped!)

As we approach the finish line, a few reminders:

The drop date is September 8, three days from now.

Posting dates will be sent out by September 10. You will be randomly assigned a posting date from Sept 12-19.

If you think you may need an extension, or would like to try for one of our amnesty dates instead (Sept 26 or Oct 12), please let us know.

(As always – having problems? Contact us!)

I am finished! I finished up the final edits over a week ago. It's about 21k words long -- which is my longest fic ever :D I'm really pretty happy with it and look forward to finally being able to post it.

[dirty_diana]

Yay for your longest fic ever! \o/ Very impressive.

[snickfic]

Unfortunately my optimism at checkin #1 was misplaced, and I do have to drop out. :( I look forward to checking out the collection, though!

[iddybangmod]

We're sorry to see you go, but thanks for letting us know! :D Better luck next time - may the id be ever in your favor!

[kateoftheangels]

Beta squeed over fic and was as constructive as ever, so I believe I’m good to go - - it’s shortish and iddy from start to finish. (It might take a bit of time to get around to edits, so I may not mind a date toward the end of the range, but I’m prepared for whatever the randomizer throws at me!)

[iddybangmod]

AWW YIS. \o/ Beta squee is an amazing feeling - mods look forward to your iddy masterpiece, too! Thanks for checking in, and well done!

[amancay]

I've advanced a lot but I had less writing time than I originally expected for the past week or so, so I'll take these next couple of days to see if I can catch-up on time or not. I'll definitely let you guys know before the 8th if I need to drop.

[iddybangmod]

There's still time! May the gentle winds of id carry you to the finish line! :D Thanks for checking in.

[sodium_amytal]

I finally finished last night! It still needs another set of eyes to look over it, but hopefully I can get that done before the posting dates.

[sodium_amytal]

ALSO I won't have access to a computer on Sept 17-18, is there any way to request that I not get those posting dates? Please and thank you~

[firstfairytale]

Hello! I've finished the first draft! I only have to go back and have it make sense. :D

[iddybangmod]

You can do it! :D Whip that draft id-to shape! Best of luck, and thanks for checking in!

[darkrosaleen]

Still at zero words, so I'm making the call to drop out this year.

[iddybangmod]

Hello! Thank you for letting us know. Take care, and we hope to see you again next round!

[muccamukk]

Can I have an extension to the 26th? My fic is going well, but it's also, uh... getting longer? Quite long.

[iddybangmod]

We'll mark you down for the 26th! \o/ Best of luck finishing, and may your fic grow to idtastic proportions! Thanks for checking in!

[kanadka]

My fic mitosed, so now I have two fics, one done, one nearly done! Is it too late to enter a second work and get a second posting date? If it's too much of a hassle at this late stage, no worries, just thought I'd ask :D

[iddybangmod]

*cartwheels deliriously into the id vortex* TWO IDS! TWO IDS! :D Go for it - mods are cheering you on! We'll mark you down for two posting dates...do let us know if anything changes! Thanks for checking in!

[yuuago]

Offline life continues to be busy, so I’m afraid I have to drop. Going to keep writing it just for fun, though!

Which leads me to a question - if by some miracle I do manage to finish before the second amnesty date, would I be able to add it to the collection anyway, or nah? (No worries if not!)

[iddybangmod]

We hope you had (and continue to have) fun! \o/ You're welcome to add it to the collection (and/or the DW comm on second amnesty) - best of luck finishing, and thanks for checking in!

[merryghoul]

Need to add a few scenes but I’m almost done!

[iddybangmod]

WOO! May the spirit of shamelessness guide you to completion! Thanks for checking in. :D

[serenity_ribbon]

I'm going to have to drop out this time, I'm afraid.

[iddybangmod]

We're sorry to see you go, but thanks for letting us know! <3

[frausorge]

My wordcount is at 7.5k but the second half still needs a lot of work. Here's hoping for a productive week!

[iddybangmod]

Mods are cheering you on! :D May you drink deeply from the spring of id and finish that stubborn second half effortlessly! Thanks for checking in!

[theoriesontales]

I am so close yet so far from finishing. I had hoped to get the final stretch written last weekend but that didn't happen. Paradoxically, the super iddy final scene just didn't want to flow :( So I am going to drop out this time around. (I still dream of making it in time for the amnesty dates but I have no time to write this month so I don't want to commit to it)

We hope you had fun and better luck next time! <3 If you finish your fic, feel free to post it to the IIBB collection (or let us know if you do make those amnesty dates)!

RL has been uncooperative recently, but I'm hoping to be wrapped up in time to post. Will contact via email if I need to extend or drop!

[iddybangmod]

Mods are rooting for you! Best of luck finishing, and we'll keep the email manned in case you need to drop or extend! Thanks for checking in \o/

[graveexcitement]

Gonna have to drop out; looking forward to browsing the collection, though!

[iddybangmod]

Better luck next time! Thanks for joining us this round, and we hope you had fun :D

[fleetsparrow]

I'm going to have to drop out. The id doth not flow this year. But next year I'm going to make a plan, like, for realsies! I mean it!!!

[iddybangmod]

No worries, thank you for letting us know! Best of luck, and if you finish your idfic, feel free to post to the IIBB 2022 collection.

[carodee]

I'm going to have to drop. I love the concept of this bang and yet my id is liiiiimp this year.

[iddybangmod]

No worries, thank you for letting us know! Best of luck, and if you finish your idfic, feel free to post to the IIBB 2022 collection.

[igrockspock]

Hello,

I am still in for one story - Star Trek: Discovery, Pike/Tilly. I will not be able to complete my second story.

Thank you!

[iddybangmod]

Well done on being done *\o/* We'll see you at the finish line! Thank you for checking in.

[wasurerareta]

The bad news: the story I signed up to write is definitely not happening.
The good news: the "side project" that kept me distracted for months is also extremely iddy and is very closed to finished, so it got promoted to the IIBB big leagues and should be good to go when posting happens! I just need to finish it in time to do some polish.

[iddybangmod]

The id wants what it wants! An iddy side project an IIBB fic doth make, very well done, and all the best with polishing. Thank you for checking in *\o/*

[souljelly]

Checking in, but with a view to dropping out if I don't pull it together in a few days' time. I haven't made much progress since the start of things, alas ;_;

Edit: I am dropping out! This isn't working out for me this year, sorry.

[iddybangmod]

No worries, thank you for letting us know! Best of luck, and if you finish your idfic after all, feel free to post to the IIBB 2022 collection.

[wolf_of_lilacs]

I've made some progress, but not as much as I was hoping for. Not ready to drop, though. I want to try for the second amnesty date.

[iddybangmod]

No worries at all, and we'll see you October 12th then! Best of luck, and thank you for checking in *\o/*

[limonpartido]

Checking in!! Almost done ♡

[iddybangmod]

Well done on almost being done!! Mods are cheering you on all the way *\o/* Thank you for checking in!

[apachefirecat]

I've actually gotten two done -- but I haven't sat down yet and gone back through them to beta them. I've never been good at that part. LOL

[iddybangmod]

Look at you and your id go! Best of luck with betaing and we'll see you at the finish line *\o/* Thank you for checking in!

[gloss]

oof. I'm down to one project, but it's uncooperative. I think I need to drop out, but with hopes of making the first amnesty date?

[iddybangmod]

No worries at all, and we'll see you September 26th then! Best of luck, and thank you for checking in *\o/*
