amplificathon 2013: calculating points

[podmod]

the points scheme always changes a bit from 'thon to 'thon, and this year is no exception! please read each section, and if you have any questions please ask us in the comments.


please figure your points and put the point value(s) on the post where you announce your recording(s). please present your points for fandom, pairing, bonus earnings and length for each podfic, then at the bottom of the entry include the total points for all podfics in your post (for easier mod tracking). the numbers will be added up and included in the table at the bottom of this post.

a) fandom points:
- giant fandoms - 1 point (spn & spn rpf; sga; harry potter; merlin; mcr)
- represented fandoms - 5 points awarded - any fandom that was represented in the archive as of march 7 2013
- unrepresented fandoms - 10 points awarded

b) relationship points (gen or any romantic groupings):
- giant relationships - 1 point awarded (rodney mckay/john sheppard; sherlock holmes/john watson; castiel/dean winchester; dean winchester/sam winchester; derek hale/stiles stilinski; jensen ackles/jared padalecki; merlin/arthur pendragon)
- represented relationships - 5 points awarded - any relationship (or gen) that was represented in the archive as of march 7 2013
- unrepresented relationships (or gen) - 10 points

c) bonus points:
- non-english language bonus: 10 pts
- new podficcer bonus: 10 pts for each podfic done for the fest (applies if your first ever podfic is posted during amplificathon)

a+b+c = subtotal
subtotal x length multiplier = total

length multiplier:
under 10 min: 1
10:01-20: 2
20:01-40: 3
40:01-70: 4
70:01-120: 5
120:01-170: 6
170:01-220: 7
220:01-270: 8
270:01-320: 9
320:01-370: 10
370:01-470: 20
470:01-570: 25
570:01-670: 30
670:01+: 40

examples!

1) If you take a look at the fandoms list you'll see that there are multiple bands listed in the RPF section. So yes, you do count Panic & MCR as a crossover, and yes, you do count points for each of them as separate fandoms.

2) If your crossover podfic has a pairing, then it isn't gen, so you can't count gen points for any fandoms. If your crossover podfic is gen (no pairings) then you count gen points for every fandom. There are examples of how to calculate points for both of these scenarios in this post.

I hope this answers your questions! :)
