Welcome to Be A Goldfish: A Ted Lasso Multimedia Microbang! We're thrilled to have you.This is an event for small and non-traditional works in the Ted Lasso fandom. We want to remind you to appreciate the little things, be kind to your fellow humans, enjoy generously, and "be a goldfish."

The rules of this event are very brief and simple, we hope. Still, we have a longer, more in depth FAQ here as well as in our second sticky, that details every possible thing we could think of in what may very well be excessive detail. However, we will still give a concise summary here:

It's Friday, fall in love! Welcome to week six of Be A Goldfish: A Ted Lasso Multimedia Microbang. Let's keep it fresh, fun, and friendly with another prompt:

Collaborate with another creative. Utilize our channel for locating betas and find somebody who wants to work together. A round-robin fic might be fun, but don’t be dissuaded from collaborating in other mediums, too; perhaps a collectively-created web weave or playlist. Buddy system!

Welcome to week five! We've reached the halfway mark of Be A Goldfish: A Ted Lasso Multimedia Microbang and we're still going strong! Let's keep things exciting with another prompt:

What is your least favourite Ted Lasso moment? Does it bother you from a plot perspective, or a characterisation point of view? How would you have done it differently if you were in charge? You’re the captain, now. Fix it!

Feel free to brainstorm, discuss ideas, and make friends in our Discord, or let us know what you’re cooking up in the comments here or on tumblr. We’re excited to see what you create. Don't forget to check out all the incredible works created for this event, which can be found right here on our Dreamwidth, on our tumblr, and in our AO3 collection! Stay curious.

Week four and we're feeling just fine! We've had another great week of Be A Goldfish: A Ted Lasso Multimedia Microbang. How about a prompt to keep things interesting?

Get out of your comfort zone. Explore the opposite of your usual jam; fluff writers, try angst. Colourful gifmakers, give moody, black and white, or subdued panels a whirl. Go against the grain.

TGIF! Welcome to week three of Be A Goldfish: A Ted Lasso Multimedia Microbang. We’ve had a great couple weeks thus far. Let’s keep that energy with another prompt:

Work in an alternate universe. How would characters from Ted Lasso function as pirates, or in the zombie apocalypse, or as ghost hunters? Any AU will do, though please remember we do not allow crossovers in this event.
