Cover artist bingo 2020 August challenge: Cards, bingo in review and feedback

[annapods]

Since July's challenge was late, here’s something a little different for the last week of this bingo:
Tell us how it went! Did you achieve your goals? What did you learn? What was fun, what wasn’t? How’s your card looking? And most importantly, what would you suggest for next year’s round?

For the feedback part, you can also pm/email/discuss on twitter or discord/whatever else, whatever is more comfortable for you.
If you have no idea what to say, here are a few points that might need changing before next year:
- schedule (timing, length)
- challenges (why they flopped, whether to keep or to do away with, if the first what to change)
- prompts (any specific fun or unfun ones, balance between the categories, new ideas)

Once you’ve done that, you’ll have earned a special cheat that you can use to fill one (any) of your squares.

I like the idea of non-podfic covers!
None of the prompts need a podfic to be filled, and there's already a few prompts that go for that specifically in one way or another (Cover cold (no knowledge of the pod), No podfic, Someone else’s podfic, New take on an old cover, Cover first, Different versions, Template, Meta, ...), but there aren't that many and we probably didn't communicate enough on the no podfic necessary part.
We need to revamp the challenges anyway, I'll keep it in mind.
For the schedule thing, I'm kind of in the same boat. 6 months is short!

You're right! As I was typing up that comment I realized that I could have used like, a little bit more creativity to fill squares without a specific podfic instead of just sticking with the norm. A lesson learned for next time! :)

To be fair, there was no mention of that option outside of the veeery long rules post /o/
I look forward to seeing your covers next year!
