So, lots of fests going at the moments. Lots of prompt forms to be filled out in the hopes they'll be filled. Like say this fic. (stealth rec: that's a harry/pansy fic you really should read)

But anyway, the question: do you put the same prompt in many fests? Does it make a difference if their fests at the same time. Or re-prompting it in a later fest.

what is fandom's etiquette and protocol on this? I mean I assume it would be no problem. (aside if its the same people reading each time they're still not likely to pick it up) But then there was that fest especially for reprompting which makes me think it might be a no-no the rest of the time.

I don't think there's really a set protocol when it comes to re-prompting. I personally don't have a problem with us, but with two conditions:

1 - Don't cut and paste.

2 - I never reprompting a prompt that's been filled at a different fest. I know from personal experience that your feelings can be hurt when you fill a propmt for a person, then see them leave that exact same prompt elsewhere later. It's like, "Well, what didn't you like about it the first time it was written?"

For example, several of the prompts I left for [livejournal.com profile] fortheloveofhp were unclaimed ones leftover from last year's [livejournal.com profile] interhouse_fest. They weren't claimed last year, but they were claimed at FTLOHP. :)

So really, it's up to you.
