How much time will we get to check in? I know it’s August but I’m worried if I miss the email 😫

hihi!! you will be given several days to fill in the form and the deadline will be on august 1st! but don’t worry, on top of sending the email, we will also post about it on our twt account and discord server, you’ll be sick of us by the end of it ^^

How late is too late to swap prompt
👉🏻👈🏻

hihi!! prompts can be claimed and swapped until a week before the submission deadline (which is set to november 1st at 00:00 KST), so you have well into october to swap your prompt !! of course, the closer to the deadline, the less time you’ll have to work on your prompt so we recommend planning accordingly!!! hope that answers your question ^^ <3

Hi! Just curious as this is my first fest, but is reveals on the schedule when the fics will start to be posted or when it's author reveals? Also why does it have no date yet (TBD)?

hihi!!! welcome!!! when we talk about reveals we mainly are referring to fic reveals, so what you see on the schedule refers to when fics will start to be posted!! otherwise we always specify if we’re referring to author reveals!! and we still don’t have a date for fic reveals because the schedule is very dependent on how many submissions we get, so we will know more after our check-in!! but rest assured that once we have a date, we will of course let you all know about it ^^ thank you for your patience and understanding!!!! <3333

Hi! I uploaded my fic to the collection 🥳🥳 but I was just wondering if this now means that I can no longer edit it? Not that I need to, but I tried checking to see if I could see it on my own account (hidden from others ik) and there is no trace of it 😂

hihi!!! congrats on uploading!!! yayyy!!! if you ever need to edit your fic, you can find the it by going to your ao3 dashboard and clicking the “edit works” button you see under your username!! since it is still unrevealed, it won’t appear as it usually does on your account, but it’s there!!!

Would it be okay if I continued writing a wip that was from a previous round that I ended up dropping out of? Enough has changed between originally claiming it in round 2 to now that it’s considerably different from the original prompt, but I don’t want to overstep given it was originally a slickfest prompt :)

hihi!! this is so exciting to hear but unfortunately we cannot give you an answer without knowing the specific prompt and the changes!! please dm us about it so that we can help you and find a solution ^^

Hello! I've just finished my fic 🥳 How do I upload it to the collection? (I also can't seem to actually find the collection?) I've never participated in one of these before so I'm a little lost haha 😄

hihi!! you can find the instructions here!!!, to find the collection you can type in “slickfest26” in the “post to collection” section of the ao3 upload page!! you can type the first letters and it should pop up on its own :))) if you need more specific help, you can dm us and we’ll guide you !!!

Hi mods, I've checked the FAQ and didn't see this anywhere, but I might have missed it. I've finished my story and ready to post it to the collection. I know there will be a form to complete but do I need to join the collection first and upload then complete the form, or as it's before the first check in do you need to see a version of the fic first?? Soz if this is a dumb question - I just want to get it right!! :)

hihi!! congratulations on finishing your fic !! yay that’s so exciting!! and it’s not a dumb question don’t worry, you can go ahead and upload the fic to the collection and then fill in the submission form with all the info, that’s all we need really!! <3 if you need any help, we’re here!!!

Ω slickfester · 15d

hihi!! sorry for the long wait, our alterspring was being mean and didn’t show us the q before now :((!!!
of course you can swap prompts, don’t you even worry about it!!! you can do so by filling in our swap form here!!! we hope that helps and sorry again for the delay!!!
