Mod Post - And our December meme is....

Mon, 03 Dec 2012 22:14:41 GMT

Posted by: icon_uk

Thanks to all the community members who contributed to the vote to see what our December meme would be (I was thinking about making some clever wordplay like DecMEMEber, but that's too clumsy to say IMHO and sounds too close to "Dismember"...)

And of the 54 voters we had, 30 votes went to our winner, and so I can formally proclaim that our meme theme is...

( Answer under the cut... just like opening an envelope at the Oscars )

Mod Post:: Decemeber Theme/Meme poll

Greetings oh best beloveds,

With December arriving and the year coming to a close, your ever lovable Mod Squad thought it might be nice to have a theme for next month and we thought it might be apt to give the entire community a chance for some input.

Mod post: theme week again! (warning - sparklee)

Mon, 23 Jul 2012 17:07:37 GMT

Posted by: greenmask

Right, scalies - From next Friday I shall be away for two weeks. Don't act up; the rest of the team are still about and well armed with shovels and lasers. They'll getcha.

BUT, to sort things out a little bit and maybe make them more confusing too, from Friday the twenty-eighth of July until Friday the tenth of August the themes (plural, yes) will be:

AND

Yes - two "moment" based themes, two similar threads. Follow either, and interpret either as you may.

Ready, get set--!

MOD POST: Theme Week free-for-all

Hullo citizens

Who wants to think about theme weeks again? It's been on our minds, over in the mod comm. We're hoping to see the love meme come back on the fairly-regular and the One Perfect Moment theme deserves another airing, don't you think? Ayes and Nays below.

On a newer thought, what say you to a post/day/weekend/week where we share the best current under-funded comic-making kickstarters that we've come across? A lot of us don't have a lot of money of course but perhaps we can influence things with our thought powers, or leave the actual funding to our rich.

Beyond that, it is time again for us to listen to the whispers and suggest/support various other theme week ideas. Whatcha got?

Personally I would like to see a "No Big Two" week, but.. could the community stand it??

Posted by: schmevil

Love meme is a couple of weeks early this year, because I remembered it now, and god knows that given two weeks I'd probably forget to post. Time to spread the love again!

Here's how it works:

Comment: I LOVE TINY TITANS (scan proving lovability omg)
Reply: LOVE
Reply: LOVE

Here's how it doesn't work:

Comment: I LOVE MINI MARVELS (scan proving lovability omg)
Reply: HATE
Reply: WANK

the Scans/NoScans Daily Calendar

Sat, 05 Feb 2011 00:24:33 GMT

Posted by: schmevil

This was meant to be part of our end of year ~*extravaganza*~, but the holidays turned out to be busier than expected and the project fell by the wayside. But because we love it (and all of you, natch), we are reviving it in hopes of having something ready this month (which is, btw Black History Month, heyyyy).

So we thought to ourselves, Scans Mods, you know what would be great? A calendar of geekmembrance. A calendar to track all the geek holidays, and the important celebrations of our diverse membership. And then we thought to ourselves, wouldn't that be a fun project for the community as a whole?

Here's how it's going to work:

You nominate days of remembrance and celebration that would or should be significant for a large number of your fellow members. We compile the data and put together a graphic calendar for the community to reference when considering figuring out what to post.

To get things started, we've come up with a few nominations of our own.

Black History Month ~ February!
Free Comic Book Day ~ First Saturday in May!
International Read Comics in Public Day (Jack Kirby's birthday) ~ August 28th!
LGBTQ History Month ~October!
Wonder Woman Day ~ The last Sunday in October! (but never halloween!)
Halloween ~ October 31st!
International Day to End Violence Against Women ~ Nov. 25 (and Dec. 6 in Canada)
National Transgender Day of Remembrance ~ Late November, but varies!
Lunisolar New Year ~ varies, usually second new moon after the winter solstice
New Years Day ~ Jan. 1!

* Note: We will not be including national holidays.

We're always glad to see member-led theme weeks and activities here on scans_daily. Following the success of One Perfect Moment Week 2.0, we're happy to announce that benicio127, with assistance from shelleymaree will be running Scans_Daily's very own 30 Days Meme starting tomorrow (Monday).

For those of you unfamiliar with these memes, each day benicio127, shelleymaree, or one of the mod team, will present members with a simple question. You can then answer it as a comment in the parent post with an accompanying scan if you wish. It can be a two word response or a complete essay! If you think you want to include more scans than a single comment will comfortably accommodate, you can also make a post of your own.

So you all have advance notice to think about your answers and get scans organized, we present the list of questions in full:

Day 1: Favorite Female Character
Day 2: Favorite Male Character
Day 3: Favorite Friendship
Day 4: Character you would bring back from the dead
Day 5: Favorite rogues gallery
Day 6: Power or Ability You’d Like to Steal
Day 7: Favorite Team/Corps/Family
Day 8: Least favorite female character
Day 9: Least favorite male character
Day 10: Most cracktastic moment
Day 11: Favorite Elseworlds/Multiverse?
Day 12: Comic Location You’d Most Like to Visit? (Gotham, Star City, Themysicra, Utopia, Prof. Charles Mansion)
Day 13: Favorite artist(s)
Day 14: Favorite writer(s)
Day 15: Character that should have their own movie
Day 16: Favorite LGBTQ character
Day 17: Favorite legacy hero (Hero that took on a previous hero’s ID)
Day 18: Best Butt?
Day 19: Character you used to hate/dislike, but now you don’t?
Day 20: Storyline/Book you could read over and over again?
Day 21: Favorite Comic Event?
Day 22: Favorite Villain
Day 23: Favorite Costume
Day 24: Least Favorite Costume
Day 25: Favorite “other media” (movie, cartoon, etc)
Day 26: Favorite PoC character
Day 27: Favorite Origin?
Day 28: Favorite Canonical Romance
Day 29: Favorite Not-so canonical Romance
Day 30: Build your dream team of five characters

We'd like to thank benicio127 and shelleymaree for offering to run this meme for us and we're sure that everyone will have a lot of fun!

Look out for the first post asking for your Favorite Female Character tomorrow.
