I just want to thank everyone who participated in any way in the fest/comm!

You can check the fills post if you want to support those authors. If you are ever in need of inspiration in the future you can look at the prompt list again, and if you have any Kon-related posts you want to make here, the community will remain open.

I've Never (the Don't Do Anything Kon Wouldn't Do remix)

2011-07-28T15:18:38Z

Posted by: ciaan

I haven't been able to get LJ to load all week, so for the moment this is a DW exclusive.

I've Never (or Never Have I Ever for the more formal/less lazy) is a party game that I've played many, many a time. You say something you haven't done, and then everyone who has done it gets a point and/or takes a drink. In my group of friends this involves much discussion about what does or does not count and how to define things, and the telling of stories about the things you've done, not done, or almost maybe done depending on the meaning of a word or a technical detail.

But here we are talking about what Kon has done!

Just jump in and leave comments, no turns or anything like that. There are two kinds of threads to play.

1. Leave a top-level comment saying something you have never done (or possibly something another character has never done). Then people reply to this saying whether or not Kon has done it.

2. Leave a top-level comment saying something Kon has never done. Then people reply to this saying whether or not they have done it (or possibly that another character has).

Check the example comments if you're confused. Have fun!

Two more weeks!

2011-07-19T15:13:46Z

Posted by: ciaan

Because of the extension to the end of July, you have just under two weeks to post any fanworks you make from our prompt list. Everyone should have posting access now so just go ahead and post to the comm. I will try to get a few more interactive posts up as well.

Hope you are inspired!

Music!

Posted by: ciaan

Do you have any songs that remind you of Kon in some way? I'm including a little mix behind the cut. Please comment with any links of your own to other mixes or to individual songs you think are appropriate! Or just tell us what they are and discuss!

Firstly, I'm thinking of extending this thing through July, because there haven't been very many fills for all the lovely lovely prompts we got. Hopefully giving a bit more time will get some more results. What do you folks think? Also, I encourage you to join the comm if you haven't already, as some posts may be member-locked, and I will also open up posting to all members so if anyone has any fun ideas, go ahead and post them! After the end of the official fest the comm will continue to exist that way for all Kon-related items.

Next, scans!

What are some of your favorite canon Kon moments, especially the ones that best serve to illustrate his essential Kon nature? The little things in amongst the plots and relationships that really show who he is?

Like:

A certain clone has just escaped from his tube and tied up the scientist guarding him, as you do. With a steel pipe, as you do if you have superstrength. In a pretty little bow, as you do if you are Kon. It's a nice little touch in one of his first panels that shows what they were going for when they introduced him.

Puzzle!

This requires Flash (though not that Flash): http://four.flash-gear.com/npuz/puz.php?c=v&id=3556719&k=77113108 and you can put together a picture puzzle. The subject of the picture is fairly obvious, right? Have fun! (And don't let the bastards grind you down.)

Round Robin Fic!

2011-06-07T19:50:58Z

Posted by: ciaan

Well, really, Round Kon Fic! Take the beginning here and add on to it in comments. Then add on to what other people write in comments. Eventually we will have at least one fic!

-----

Superboy was sitting on the sofa watching No Signal when the TV monitor burst into a brilliant, multi-colored shower of sparkles. He leapt away but the sparks rushed outward and engulfed him.

Suddenly he was floating (floating!) in a strange mist of static. In front of him were three boys all with his same insignia. One boy was dressed like him, but slightly larger, and had another lounge-room swirling vaguely behind him. The second was wearing a flannel shirt over the S-shield tee and backed by an image of a barn. The third was dressed in tights and spandex and a leather jacket and many belts in front of a ghostly beach.

"Dude!" said the leather jacket one.

"Wow," said the barn one.

"Oh, shit," said the large one.

The Kononymous Love Meme!

2011-05-31T15:59:42Z

Posted by: ciaan

You've probably all seen anonymous love memes before, yes? Well, if you haven't, what happens is that people leave their own names or other people's names in comments, and then go through and reply to comments and tell everyone how awesome they are and how much they love them.

But this is a Kononymous Love Meme, so it's with a twist!

Step 1: Leave a top-level comment with your own username, someone else's name, or a fictional character's name. You may be logged-in or anon for this part.

Step 2: Make anon replies to these comments as Kon, telling people what you love about them and how amazing they are! Pick any version of Kon you want, from any medium or era! Please make these comments anon! Just channel the Kon-love!

Check the first thread here for an example.

Discussion #2: MBTI

2011-05-18T19:14:49Z

Posted by: ciaan

Sometimes I like to run fictional characters through the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and decide what personality type I think they are (Myers & Briggs Foundation, MBTI Wikipedia entry). Personally, I've decided Kon is an ESFP (extraversion, sensing, feeling, perceiving). It's a pretty good description of him: ESFP on wiki, elsewhere, and more. (Also, I think comics-Bart is an ENFP, and Smallville-Lex is an INTJ (and a Scorpio).) Yes, whatever, I have to keep myself entertained somehow. So, a poll! And also comment!

2011-05-18T18:29:35Z

Posted by: ciaan

Sorry that I disappeared! I will try harder to be back now.

Here are all the prompts for the kon_a_thon. Hopefully they inspire you! It would be great to get more fic and art and so on! There are also lots of prompts at dc_kink, dccomics_meme, yj_anon_meme, and rarecomicskink, if you're looking for further inspiration.

( Prompts! )

Please put all fills in the fill post! On LJ and on DW.

Happy Konning!

Discussion #1: Mixed Drinks

2011-04-25T18:03:32Z

Posted by: ciaan

I'm posting this early in case it comes in handy later.

If Kon were a drink, what would be in it?

I'm not sure myself, I just know it would be pretty strong. But what does he taste like? Sunshine and citrus? Red and black licorice? Minty fresh? Cinnamon sharp? Sweet tropical fruit? Cream and sugar?

Virtual Hangman! And tell me what you want!

2011-04-20T15:14:22Z

Posted by: ciaan

I'm not entirely sure how I'm going to run this whole comm; since I'm planning on doing stuff for the next two months, there is lots of time and space for input from you lovely folks! I do want this to seem like a very long, virtual birthday party, so I'm trying to think of games we can play online, and ways we can maybe get together to read/watch the same thing at once. What are some activities you would like to do? Things I'm considering are recs, scans, music, round-robin fic, and silly discussion posts. Possible games include hangman, puzzles, a scavenger hunt, pictionary, and Kon Has Never. But I'm not sure how to virtualize all of them! I'll probably post once or twice a week, but I don't want to set too firm a schedule. So please comment with any suggestions, questions, anything!

Now on to Hangman. For those who don't know, each dash represents a letter, and you leave a comment guessing one letter. If it's in the word, I'll reveal it. If it's not, the little guy gains a limb. When he has fully materialized on the platform, he is dead. If the word is guessed, he is saved! If you guess the word, you win, uh, the satisfaction of heroically saving his life?

XENOBIOLOGY

Letters of fail: KATSMRD

kirax2 cracks the alien life code and saves the little dude!

(For DW, it's actually easiest if you leave Hangman guesses on the LJ post, so all of them are in the same place. I don't want to discriminate against DW! I love it best! But more people are watching the LJ comm. All other suggestions can definitely go here!)

Completed fic/art/etc goes here!

2011-04-20T13:02:36Z

Posted by: ciaan

Have you written, drawn, manipped, vidded, and so forth something Kon-related? Either for the prompts in this comm or on LJ or otherwise? If so, please drop a link here or on LJ!

(You may include actual fanworks in comments here if you must, but I'd prefer links to things instead.)

This post is open for submissions until June 30.

Prompts for the fic/art/vid/etc Kon-a-thon

2011-04-18T19:37:19Z

Posted by: ciaan

One of the goals of the 18th Anniversary Kon-a-thon is to see a little extra rush of Kon-centric fanworks for the next few months. To that end, we're gathering prompts here!

Prompts can be for any medium, genre, pairing, anything, so long as they're about some version of Kon.

Now, I'm going to try to make this as easy as possible, for me, for you, for everyone. (Kon likes easy.) Leave prompts in comments to this post. You can be logged in, OpenID, or anon. Put as few or as many prompts in each comment as you like. Format them however. There are copies of this post on both LJ and DW.

Last day for prompting is April 30. Then, May 1 or shortly thereafter, I will cross-post master lists of all prompts to LJ and DW.

There is no claiming or anything. I will also make master posts on LJ and DW for dropping links to finished works. In those posts you can put any kind of fanwork about any kind of Kon, whether in response to a prompt here or not. Then at the end of June, I will make a master list of all the finished works, as well.

So! Is there anything you have been wanting from Kon? Prompt it here! Hopefully it will inspire someone. Check out the prompts here, hopefully you will be inspired!

And SPREAD THE WORD.

EDIT: PLEASE ONLY LEAVE PROMPTS HERE. Completed fanworks go in this post instead or on LiveJournal.

There are also more prompts on LJ.

Posted by: ciaan

You've come a long way, baby!

1993

2011

18 years of publication history. His name has changed... his costume... his powers... his parentage... his location... his relationships... He's died and come back to life. He's just made his TV debut this season. And through it all, he's still helping people, saving the world, and spreading awesomeness.

So let's throw a party!

Running now through the end of June, we are celebrating 18 years of Superboy! Kon-El! Conner Kent! The once and future Superman!

Keep watching kon_a_thon on DW and kon_a_thon on LJ for a Kon-a-thon fanworks challenge, a squee/discussion post, a Kononymous love meme, and other exciting interactive adventures!

This entry is a placeholder so I can look at various layouts. In the event of a real entry, there would be more Kon. He likes to lay things (out).

The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog. Krypto is not a lazy dog. Those cows won't feed themselves. Bart eats more than Kon does. La la la. His forcefield is pregnable to Cass.
