The poll to vote for the themes for Olivarry Week 2017 is now open!
We had a lot of prompts this year, and we had to shave the list down from over 70 prompts to under 35, so a lot of themes had to be merged. We tried to make sure that most of them were actually included (for example,specific requests like “GoT AU” etc were merged into a more nonspecific category) and some that we felt didn’t fit or were too specific had to be discarded. Keep in mind, though, that if the theme that you were hoping for didn’t make it, we still have Free Day.
With that out the way – you guys can vote for up to 6 themes! Choose wisely. The poll will be open until Saturday, May 27th.
Mark your calendars! It was a close call, but the date for Olivarry Week 2017 (by one vote!!) is July 9th – July 15th. Thank you to everyone who signal boosted the last post and voted.
So here is a breakdown of how the dates for the event will look (please note that some of these may be subject to change depending on admin availability, but there shouldn’t be any issues at this point, and the Olivarry Week date is set in concrete):
May 13th: Prompt suggestions close, prompt poll opens. May 27th: Prompt poll closes. May 28th/29th: Themes announced. July 9th: Olivarry Week 2017 begins. July 15th: Olivarry Week 2017 ends.
We’re still taking prompt suggestions for the next week, so throw them at us! As mentioned above, suggestions close next Saturday (May13th) and a poll will be posted on the same day.
As always, thank you to everyone for their input. If you guys could give us another signal boost for this post to get the word out, that’d be awesome.
