Chocobo Racing - September Round
Welcome to Chocobo Racing, everyone! September is our kick-off month, and as such, we’ve decided to start with an easy theme to get all these Chocobos warmed up and ready to go.
September’s theme is: Gift Yourself.
Find a Chocobo Down prompt that’s exactly the kind of thing you’d love to be assigned and fill it. Find a prompt that’s just the kind of gift you’d love to see and create it. Gift yourself! Whether it’s your favorite character, your comfort ship drawing that scene you’ve always wanted to see or writing that fabulous twist you always wish you were assigned. For September, the theme is to gift yourself — make something you either really want to give or really want to get.
Because this theme is uncheckable for the mods — we can’t read your fandom minds and fandom hearts! — we’re going to work on the honor system, and assume every gift that’s made fits the theme. Thus, all gifts in September will be worth 10 points. (If for some reason you want to fess up about a gift that doesn’t fit the theme to the mods, let us know and we’ll tally your non-theme gift accordingly. *g* ) Because this theme isn’t checkable, it won’t carry over to other months — ’Gift Yourself’ gets you 10 points during September only.
This makes September a GREAT month to get ahead, by the way. ;)
So here’s how to get your Chocobo Races started:
Here are the current team rosters. Friendly trash talk in the comments is totally encouraged.
Team Tonberry!
Team Cactuar!
Please let us know if we've screwed up, left you off the roster, or put you on the wrong team amidst our code juggling!
September’s theme will be open until Friday, September 30th. As the date gets closer we’ll post to let you know what time we’ll be closing and how we’ll handle the end of the first round.
Aaaaaaaaand...go, everyone! LET THE CHOCOBO RACES BEGIN!

So here’s how to get your Chocobo Races started:
- Browse the Chocobo Down list until you find a great prompt to work with. There are three years worth of prompts! :D
- Create something for that prompt that fits our simple Chocobo Down Expectations.
- Post your CD into the LJ community (

ff_exchange), into the DW community (ff_exchange), or into our collection on AO3. If you’re posting to LJ/DW, please use appropriate headers — we suggest these so it's easy for us to do the round up:
- Encourage your fellow participants with comments!
- Repeat until September’s over!
