I can see how that could have been confusing. But the idea of having these challenges without any pressure of a deadline is also quite nice. Takes a bit of pressure of the deadlines.
It's a bit sad to see that in the FK fandom there's not much engagement outside of the FicFest, but I think it's absolutely awesome that a 30+ year old fandom still has so many people contributing. :)
I don't think that most of the new "trendy" fandoms will have that - although I hope they will, fandom is a very important happy place for so many, especially since the reality these days can be very very frightening.
