allbingoI will be running the Cottoncandy Bingo Fest from August 1-31. This theme focuses on things which are light, fluffy, and sweet. Fills may include some challenging elements, but ideally, the overall tone should be uplifting. Everyone is encouraged to play. All formats and fandoms are welcome, along with original work. There are no size requirements.
The primary list of prompts comes from the old Cottoncandy Bingo community, now available on the Bingo Card Generator, and the Gentle Fiction list is equally apt. You may also want to choose prompts from Robert Plutchik's 1980 List of Emotions, Childhood Experiences, Emotions, People-watching, Positive Coping Techniques, Problems That Can't Be Solved By Hitting, Types of Family, and/or Little Actions For Self-Care. Feel free to mix and match if you want to make your own. Some fun patterns you might like to try: Airplane, Kite, Top Hat, Turtle.

Date: 2017-08-02 08:09 pm (UTC)Well...
Date: 2017-08-02 08:20 pm (UTC)For my purposes, I typically go with:
* Wild Card means you can use any prompt you wish
* Free Space or an abstract design means you don't have to make anything for that, but it still counts
* Free by itself can be interpretated as either of the above or as "freedom" in a prompt
