Hello beautiful people! I'm finally back from a year-long break. I hope our love for 1827 stands strong throughout this whole time that I've been gone. I know I still love them so much
In an attempt to get this group to be a bit more lively, I think this is high time to organise some nice things.
SEPTEMBER 9: 1827 Fanday Project + Contest I did mention earlier that 8+1 and 2+7 both equal to 9, so what better day to celebrate 1827 Fanday than on September 9th? I know it is also Gokudera's birthday. All the better because you probably can picture some funny reactions Gokudera would make when he knows about 1827 and his birthday *coughpoorguy*. I'm happy to announce a little contest for
1827 Fanday.
CONTEST INFO & RULES- Contest is open to all group members. You MUST be a member for a chance to win a prize.
- You can submit a maximum of 5 entries for the contest.
- Your artwork MUST have both Hibari and Tsuna in it. It's 1827 after all.
- You cannot nominate other people's artwork. Only your own artwork can be submitted for the contest.
- Artwork can be in the form of doujin panels/pages -and/or- coloured illustrations. Linearts are not accepted.

- Deadline: 1st September 2011. Allow the remaining days for judging to take place.
Depending on my budget, I may upgrade the prize value. Start thinking about your entry for 1827 Fanday now for a chance to win, but don't start submitting yet! More info to come soon. Do leave a comment if you're interested about the contest~
PROJECT INFOI'm thinking of releasing an
e-book for 1827 Fanday under
HibaTsuna Connection Project /【ヒバツナコネクション】企画 for DA. Depending on interested participants and if the project progresses nicely, there might even be a printed version of Collaborative 1827 Fanbook this year comprising of select doujin pages, panels, artwork, a couple of high-quality fanfictions, etc. The printed version will be different from the e-book version for the sake of quality control. I'm not going to say much about this project yet. Anyone interested in any version of the project? Comment away~
I'm also reachable on e-mail and my public Twitter accounts (
paperkiss and
egami_arina) if you feel like discussing things.
FEBRUARY 7 & JULY 2 : TSUNA DAY Not sure about how it is out there but for the sake of this group, I hereby declare
070211 and
020711 as Tsuna Day(s) for this year! Twice a year for our little Vongola bossu, we'll commemorate these days as his day in the fandom world. These dates can both be written as 2.7 depending on the format that we use. As to not discriminate any format, I chose both dates. In Japan, only February 7th is hailed as Tsuna Day, but let's be a bit different, shall we?
Keep deviations coming! Spread the word and show your support for Tsuna and Tsuna Day by stating something about it somewhere on your artwork or in artist's comment~
That's all from me. Have a nice day peeps! By the way, staff application for the group is open for all positions. Think you're up to it? Note me~
p.s/ Do you tweet? Look out for fully automated Hibari and Tsuna bots in English soon!
