This is a resource post for the multimedia aspects of the Games. I’m starting out with beginner links for those that are brand new, but guides that are aimed at more experienced users are fine too. Please comment with any guides or instructional posts you know of! Especially for art, as I don't know anything about creating or hosting art.

Shippers, here's our calendar of events:

Your Command Staff are looking for a few good men a couple of extra folks to join our team of Admirals. Interested in seeing the behind-the-scenes process? Love being the one to make something great happen? We want you, then!

This will require an evening per week, plus a few extra commitments along the way. It is a moderate investment of time, more so before and after the Games begin and end. How much time will depend on the number of people who sign up. Ideally there will be enough people so we can divide the duties, but please don't sign up if you aren't willing to commit.

Please pm pslasher or claudia_nic if you’re interested!

(Trying this thing again!)  Your Admirals are preparing another Ship Games, to start after Star Trek Into Darkness is released.

Poll #1907561 Are you in?
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 41

Are you ready for another Ship Games?

This year we're taking advantage of the fantastic options the Archive of Our Own offers and are having the shippers post all fills directly to this years collection. We're also going to use the logged-in Kudos function as a polling method. That means you'll need to have an AO3 account to participate, so head on over to the Invite Request page and sign up if you don't have one.


Also, last year's shippers have been removed from st_respect in preparation for signups. We will admit those who sign this year's Manifesto after it goes up, which will be in a couple of weeks.  Feel free to Watch, but hold off on requesting membership for a bit.

This is the place to post links to all the fanworks you created for the 2010 Ship Wars, even the ones that didn't make it as a final submission to st_respect for voting.

You may post links to your personal journal, a community you posted your work to, or an unlocked link over at your team comm.  This post is open to everyone, so only give links that are unlocked and you want shared outside of the Ship Wars participants!  Works posted in the comments will be collected into a master list here grouped by Prompt.  Posting to this list is voluntary.

What is allowed?  Anything that was created for a main prompt, surprise bonus round, Spirit Week, party posts or for the Fleeties.

Posting format:  Please include the following info for each link:
"Prompt Name/Number - Team Name - Work Title"

If you want to add the type of fanwork I'll include it in the listing of your work.


You can check out the 2010 Ship Wars Collection on the Archive of Our Own to read or add your works.  You don't have to have an AO3 account to read, comment or leave Kudos, but you do need one to add new works to the collection.  To find out more about posting to the AO3 check out this post.

Your Teams for 2010 are:

Ashayam Spock/Uhura

P.S.  We're going to post some little treats for the teams in the comments.  We didn't make them, and for the macros we don't have creator info to give proper credit  :(  But we hope that you enjoy them.
