Challenge #9

Even though I'm not really a part of the #Arcane fandom anymore, this still remains one of my best/favourite pieces of fanart. Plus I met some wonderful people during that time of my life - including someone who shared my love of Dragon Age - so there were parts that went well 💜

Fandom at this moment feels a little bit more in flux than usual, both in terms of online spaces and in terms of ways of doing fandom. Where are we all going? What does it all mean? What do you, personally, plan to do?

In your own space, create a quiz or a poll (or tell us your thoughts about answering quizzes/polls). Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Easy enough to do here on mastodon by using the poll feature. Go ahead and append it to this post so that we can all enjoy it!

#SnowflakeChallenge2023

Challenge #4

In your own space, add something to your fandom’s canon.

To #ChocoMilkShake I would add the Uncle and Milk show because holy god, if ever a pair of actors deserved their own spinoff, it's these two.

Comment on someone's fan-creation, chat up the random person who visited your journal because you have fandoms in common, go find a community that could use a jolt. Find someone to wave to in tags. Really, anything that has you making a connection with someone else, counts.

Challenge #7

In your own space, interact with a community or a fic. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

To make it harder, do it using only things you can see from the room that you are currently in. #snowflakeChallenge2023 Challenge 6 - Scavenger hunt

#SnowflakeChallenge2023
Post a picture of something that is or represents:
1. A favorite character
2. Something that makes you laugh
3. A bookshelf
4. A game or hobby you enjoy
5. Something you find comforting
6. A TV show or movie you hope more people will watch
7. A piece of clothing you love
8. A thing from an old fandom
9. A thing from a new fandom

Please remember alt text.
Reminder: this is a low pressure, fun challenge. If you aren't comfortable doing a particular challenge, then don't.

#SnowflakeChallenge2023

Fans (and human beings in general!) accumulate stuff that reflects our interests. A scavenger hunt is a chance to share some of the things you enjoy with others and let them get to know you better.

Challenge #6

In your own space, post the results of your fandom scavenger hunt. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Fandom is a fantastic place but, sometimes it's hard to find the places which enable you to indulge your passions.

Challenge #5

In your own space, tell us about 3 creative/fannish resources, spaces, or communities you use or enjoy. (One or two is fine, especially if you're in a smaller fandom or like many people at the moment, fannishly adrift right now)

Leave a comment on this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

@SnowflakeChallenge

In the Anime, Initial D, Mako, a beautiful 20 year old racer girl, tells Itsuki, a coworker of the main character Takumi, that she would sleep with him if he arranges a race for her against Takum.
Later, on a date, Mako mentions that she always idolized another racer, Takahashi Ryosuke.

Then Itsuki ghosts Mako because TR is a higher ranked driver so she deserves him.

I wish the two had got together and not ended up as lonely drivers. #snowflakeChallenge2023

SNOWFLAKE CHALLENGE 23
If you got the opportunity to add one thing to the canon of any of your fandoms, what would that be? Maybe there’s a character who didn’t get much of a backstory/storyline. Maybe a show was axed too soon and you had thoughts on what could happen in a subsequent season.

Challenge #4

In your own space, add something to your fandom’s canon. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Rather than holding onto those slights and resentments, or burying them and pretending they don’t exist, just to have them slowly and almost imperceptibly seep into the rest of the challenges, why don’t we just let it all out?

Challenge #3

In your own space, Scream Into the Void. Get it all out. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Please let us know if you want or need encouragement or advice

#snowflakeChallenge2023

Seems like we all spend a considerable chunk of our fandom time trying to convince others that our fave is in fact the best.
Write an outline of your fave, why it's great, and links to where one can find more.

Challenge #2

In your own space, write a promo, manifesto or primer for your fave character, ship or fandom. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

#snowflakeChallenge2023

Some of the names you see here during Snowflake 2023 might be familiar, and some might be strangers. (Or, as we like to think of it, friends you haven’t met yet.) We’d like us all to take the first step towards making new friends with this first challenge, which has become our annual first challenge.

Challenge #1
In your own space, update your fandom information! Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so. #snowflakeChallenge2023
