hihi!! this isn't silly at all!! during check-in, all fest participants will have to fill in a (mandatory) form regarding their creative progress! we'll ask about things like how far along in your process you are, if you intend to keep your prompt, if you need help, if you need any support from the mods... things like these, they'll be very easy questions with zero pressure!! but they're very important because they help us keep track of our slickfesters (which ones are staying in the fest vs which ones may need to drop, who has doubts etc.)!
of course, if you need help or want to change/drop your prompt, you can do so at any time, our dms are always open! this is just a way for us mods to get a more comprehensive perspective on our lovely fest participants ^^
