Hockey Challenges & Exchanges
Hi! I'm trying to compile a list of all the recent or currently active fic exchanges and challenges in the fandom. Obviously with some people leaving tumblr, the fandom's even more spread out now, and a lot of exchange organising or promotion happens on discord, where people can miss it easily (or might not know about it). I thought a way to combat this, and help encourage more people to get involved in challenges and exchanges would be to compile a list, with some of the important details, so everything gets a bit easier to find.
My plan is to get as many as possible, and then make a big post here, where it'll have a permanent URL and people can link to it easily. But to get started, I need to collect as many exchanges and challenges as possible. I'd really appreciate if people could help me out and comment with different challenges or exchanges that they know about. I've made a form for copying and posting into comments below, but even if you don't know all the details, please link to it and I can do research myself as well.
(Please don't feel it has to only be "regular" challenges as well. Even if yours is only a one-off, keeping a record means people can revive it in the future, or check out the cool stuff that got made!)
Thanks in advance!
