If, for some reason, you can't get ahold of a mod via IM or otherwise and have an issue, question, etc., please feel free to leave a comment here. They are screened for the time being, but if the question is pertinent to members at large (about how rainbowfic works, for example), we'll unscreen once answered so others can see it and perhaps have their questions answered.

For reference, you can try IMing Kat at tigerkat245, Kelly at subluxating, or Sara at WLiialover88; these are all on AIM, or you can send a PM. You can also contact Geena at takenhawkeye @ yahoo.com.

Have y'all considered allowing other bingo cards than origfic_bingo to count for pastels?

[rainbowmods]

I am so sorry we never got back to you! I thought we had.

We just discussed it to verify what everyone thinks, and we're going to go ahead and change the description to reflect that, yes, other bingo cards are okay as long as they're generated by the mods of that community. Thank you for bringing it to our attention!

I have a further question about the "generated by the mods" restriction. I have a card from fanbingo (a trope bingo comm, ftr), where the cards are officially supposed to be generated by the mods but in actuality their mods have all been on hiatus for over a year. They have a hiatus rule where any member of the comm can use a random number generator against the posted prompts list to create a new card. That's what I did.

So would this card of mine be allowed for Pastels use?

The mods have discussed it, and we're sorry, but we're going to have to stick to 'mod-generated' as the baseline. If it's not, there's nothing to stop someone from repeatedly generating their card until they get one they want, and that's not the goal of the challenge.

We apologize for the inconvenience!
