voiceteamUNIVERSAL BONUS [10 point bonus]: Bonus for any Voiceteam fanwork that centers one or more characters of color. This includes racebent characters, as long as the fic includes a reference to that character’s identity.
LENGTH BONUS for audio: +10 points if over 10 minutes, +15 points if over 30 minutes, +20 points if over an hour
PROJECT LEAD BONUS [15 point bonus]: A player qualifies for this bonus if they: a) took the leading role in a multivoice project involving three or more people other than themself and b) did significantly more work than the other people involved in the project (e.g. prepared the script, organized roles, set deadlines, followed up with people, answered questions, and edited together the work).
COMMON GROUND [30 points for each qualifying player who contributes]:
Create a list of 10 things that at least 10 of your team members have in common. These could relate to personal or fannish identity. They must be true of at least ten people on your team, but NOT true of at least one other player in the other team that shares your team color (example: "I have a Discord account" wouldn't count).
MIC CHECK [25 points for each player who records an audio intro] Record a brief audio intro to share with your teammates. Tell them a little bit about yourself as a podficcer, including what fandoms/ratings/genres of fics you most like recording. Read aloud one or more brief snippets of text that you think will showcase your strengths. If you have certain skills you bring to podficcing (accents, speaking multiple languages, singing, ASMR, foley, etc.), you might want to demonstrate them, so your teammates can suggest roles that are a good fit for you in future group projects!
ACTUAL SCAVENGER HUNT [35 points, +10 if it could be reasonably considered to be an unusual item]: Create an audio fanwork that includes an item in your home or current living space. You can start with the item and then find/create a story that fits it, or start with the story and then find an object from it somewhere in your house. You cannot create or acquire an item for this challenge that didn't exist in your home before this round began. Post the audio fanwork along with a photo of the item. Bonus points if the item could reasonably be considered to be an unusual item.
DABBLE IN DRABBLES [10 points]: Record a 100-word drabble, drabble series/sequence/collection, double drabble (200 words) or triple drabble (300 words)! Celebrate short pods/works!
HAND OF FATE [35 points]: As a team, add works you'd like to hear podficced into https://pickerwheel.com. Anyone on your team who wants to record a wheel of fortune podfic spins and records the fic they land on! Alternately, you can create a dice-based or card-based system for choosing if you prefer!
GROUP HANG [35 points]: Record a multivoice audio fanwork live with a group of other Voiceteam players. Being virtually live over audio or video chat counts!
NO MAKE-UP CHALLENGE [35 points]: Create an audio fanwork that is not edited—leave in your mistakes! Share it with at *least* your team.
SIMULPOD A FIC [35 points]: Simultaneously release multiple podfics of the same story with one or more other Voiceteam players. Can you beat the Voiceteam-wide record for most simulpods of one fic?
MAKE A FILK [35 points]: Record a filk!
PHONE A FRIEND [35 points, +5 if recorded into your physical mic] Get someone who isn’t playing this round of Voiceteam to contribute voice to an audio fanwork you create. Even minor roles count! Bonus points if it is a local (or visiting) person who can record their part into your physical mic.
LENGTH BONUS for audio: +10 points if over 10 minutes, +15 points if over 30 minutes, +20 points if over an hour
PROJECT LEAD BONUS [15 point bonus]: A player qualifies for this bonus if they: a) took the leading role in a multivoice project involving three or more people other than themself and b) did significantly more work than the other people involved in the project (e.g. prepared the script, organized roles, set deadlines, followed up with people, answered questions, and edited together the work).
