Recently this event was posted:

Solo Celebration Bingo May 1-31
In celebration of National Masturbation Month, this bingo fest promotes healthy enjoyment of one's own body with erotic works. The public card will be asexual/aromantic friendly with prompts for solo rather than partner activities.

Alas,

elizabeth_rice will not be able to organize this event after all. It is available for claim if anyone else wants to take over as organizer. I'll wait a few days to see if it gets claimed. (Anyone claiming an orphaned event is free to retune it to their own preferences, as long as it stays in keeping with the community's parameters.) If not, I'll take it off the schedule.

What do you need to so to host the event?

It's pretty simple:

1) Pick a theme and a timespan. Ideally, aim for a month that doesn't already have an activity, but time-sensitive events may be allowed closer together as needed. If you're not sure of people's interest, you could post a query first and ask, especially if you have several possible themes or times in mind. Declare your interest so that your event can be added to the schedule.

2) Make a post detailing the parameters of the event. This needs to include at least the beginning and end dates, along with the theme. It helps to mention any unusual bingo patterns, communities, or prompt lists that would suit the event. You may want to generate and include a "public" card that anyone can use.

3) Keep an eye on the activity. Ideally, answer questions about the event, encourage people to participate, cheer for the ones who post a bingo, etc. If an argument breaks out, remind people to play nice. You might want to do a little promotion in other relevant venues, but it's not required.

Oh that sounds easy enough. I will host May's moth of Self Love ;).

Huzzah! I have updated the schedule accordingly. As the host of this event, you may update the description if you need to. Really it's just a theme and timeframe at this stage, without much detail, so most of the parameters are up to you.

Thank you. Can I have a couple days to work out the details?

More than that. April is the Spring/Autumn fest, so there's no rush.

People do benefit from a little advance warning, so that they can choose a card. I suggest posting the fest parameters some time in mid-April. Then maybe put another post on May 1 when the fest actually opens for posting.
