What is Promptathon?
Promptathon is a time for rest, a time to give our TAs a chance at a break, and a chance for all of you who've been ignoring or avoiding the 50% rule to face your shame, join the community, and work off some of that play-debt. Promptathon is a week-long event we hold for the community at the turn of each season. Each day, for 7 days, a new drawing prompt drops. The goal is to submit something for each prompt within the first 24 hours of its release - doing so will earn you a special, unique avatar tied to that prompt.
For those of you on the official critique track, you will still be permitted to submit your homework, but you may not receive feedback until after the event is complete, as it is up to the TAs whether or not they wish to take this time off. You are however encouraged not to work on your homework during this time, whether you participate or not, so that those TAs who do choose to take a break can do so without coming back to a mountain of work. All credits that expire during the Promptathon, as well as for a few days after it, will receive a full 10 day extension on their expiration.
