I like this and will definitely consider it.

I do like having a rating as well and I'd really like to keep the character count down, so maybe we could truncate the challenge title to "SPNJ2BB: TITLE [FIRST PAIRING LISTED/GEN, RATING] by AUTHOR" or something like that.

But summaries and commentary in the thread starters will be a definite "No", I think.

HOHOHO, and here I thought we were going to go back to the way the fic discussion post started and not list the challenge in the title at all for the main BB's fics.

I also support the rating being kept in the title.

If that is what the majority of anons wish to do, it's fine with me. But I just thought it might be a bit easier to sort through, considering there could be any number of Big Bangs going on at once.

I agree, keep the challenge title in the header. SPNJ2BB or even just BB would work.

da

But if we just use BB I don't think it would be any more clear than not naming the challenge at all; if it's going to be there I think it should be made clear which BB it is at least.

ayrt

Okay, I can see that, too, but my thought is that nonnies on meme (for the most part) are aware that the spn_j2_bigbang is THE big bang, and the reason the FD post was started up in the first place. The less letters used up in the title, the better?

You can also tell which BB it is from the link the first thread, sometimes I get confused with other acronyms in this post and the thread is what sets me to rights.

But using SPNJ2BB makes sense as well.

Yeah, there'll be quite a few big bangs posting over the summer, I think that crossbigbang crowley_bigbang and sncross_bigbang all start posting soon.

But all those big bangs would be labelled accordingly, so you wouldn't mistake them for the main BB.

By commentary, do you mean the other pairings and word count, or are you including fandom as well?

Why no to the idea of summaries? Worry about wank, or to much clutter?

Not the AYRT, but I'm guessing that commentary refers to personal comments, like "I've been looking forward to this fic!" eg. http://spnanonhaven.livejournal.com/1635.html?thread=54418787#t54418787

And please keep the colon to separate the challenge from the title! It isn't one continuous line of information, or the format would be "challenge title pairing rating by author" with no separators whatsoever.
