Who's interested in a meta challenge?
Although this community is open for posting, it seems that only one person's thought to crosspost content here in the past few years. While Buffyverse meta probably isn't being written as often as it once was, I think there's still enough content out there that we could keep this account active.
One thing I've been noticing in a review of my own meta is that a lot of it was prompted by someone else's post -- sometimes fic or discussion, but often another meta post. It made me think that an interesting challenge might be to do a meta "remix". This could be of a meta post originally written about a different fandom, or another Buffyverse meta post that could use updating or another take.
Would anyone be interested in taking part in this if we set contribution dates at the end of July? I'd like people to commit to making a specific post, but we could do it as a weeklong event instead of set posting dates to keep things simpler.
If you'd be willing to take part, please leave a comment here. If we have at least a dozen people willing to take part, I'll make a new post and we can determine specifics of the posting week, and people can "sign up" to contribute particular topics.

enoughanything with it.I LOVE the idea of a meta remix. The thinky thoughts in meta are continually inspirational, whether one agrees or disagrees with the writer.

LJ's telling me that while I'm the owner, that you, me, and spartan5000 are maintainers and mods. I also ended up agreeing to take the comm because I wanted it preserved, though the timing wasn't great because I was too busy to give it any attention. I'm happy to leave things as is but if you want to change status or bring someone else on board, I'm good with that too.
Do you know spartan? I don't think I've run across them in the past and I see their LJ hasn't had a post in 6 years.
I have some more time these days and am in a bit of a meta kick at the moment, so I thought I'd see if anyone's still watching this space. I was hoping that if there's enough interest in an annual event that people might remember it when they write at other times of year too (and it will look more active).
Any thoughts on where else we might post to that will get some attention?
