We're always looking for ways to make this community as brilliant as it can possibly be. If you've got something you'd like to see - a new rule, a challenge, an fic exchange - drop us a line here.

Could we get tags for death and grief, and maybe post-Hell issues/the Great Wall of Sam? Thanks!

[mimblexwimble.livejournal.com]

Absolutely! I added "death," "grief," "hell/post-hell issues," and "the great wall of sam." :)

[ramblin_rosie]

Yay, thanks! (For some reason, "death" and "grief" aren't showing up for me.)

Growth spurt/growing pains tags!

[(Anonymous)]

Anyone who grew up with boys who grew up to be giants knows about the growth spurts - when they put on an inch a month, and their joints click and pop as they move, and every time they cross paths with a food they don't hate they eat ALL OF IT. Also they get really sore and feel super awkward in their bodies.

Obviously a h/c community for Sam needs tags for this.

Re: Growth spurt/growing pains tags!

[mimblexwimble.livejournal.com]

Ooo, definitely! I've added the tag "growing pains".

why..... ??
Dean/Cas fis in this community???

[mimblexwimble.livejournal.com]

As long as the story's main focus (or part of its main focus) is hurt and/or sick Sam, we allow any pairings, whether Sam is a part of them or not.

iT'S really ridiculous rules..

I was wondering if you might create an AO3 collection for this community, so that people who post there could add works when/if they’re posting for an ohsam’s fic challenge, or in response to a comment-fic meme?


For example, something like:


Parent collection: Oh, Sam
http://archiveofourown.org/collections/ohsam


-----
[listed chronologically]


(for the fic challenges)

Subcollection: Hurt/Comfort Fic Challenge, Round One
http://archiveofourown.org/collections/ohsam_challenge2010

Subcollection: Hurt/Comfort Fic Challenge, Round Two
http://archiveofourown.org/collections/ohsam_challenge2011


(for the comment-fic memes)

Subcollection: Hurt/Comfort Comment Meme – Community Christening
http://archiveofourown.org/collections/ohsam_meme01

Subcollection: Hurt/Comfort Comment Meme – Happy Birthday, Sam!

Or, any other way you’d like to organize it, of course. This is just rudimentary, to show what I had in mind.

[mimblexwimble.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the excellent suggestion! We'll get on it right away. :)

No problem! :D

Hey, I dunno if you guys check this anymore but one of the things HoodieTime does that (I think) we should is encourage ART prompts for the comment memes! Not just comment FIC memes... :D

[mimblexwimble.livejournal.com]

YES YES YES. I think it mentions art but I'm going to add a note and pimp at some art comms right now. :D

[quickreaver.livejournal.com]

Hey, mods! How are y'all? How are things at my favorite comm?

I was wondering if you two could use a little help with coming up with events, regular features, that kind of thing. I look at our lovely sister (brother?) comm, hoodietime, and it just seems more thriving than the Sam side. And this makes me a tad sniffly. If so, I'm offering! And I'm sure I can get a few other Sam!girls on board too. :D

[center-galaxy.livejournal.com]

Could we get a gunshot wound tag? As of now, I tag all the symptoms of it, but it would be way easier if I could just tag it as a gunshot wound. And maybe a few new episode tags? For example, "Sacrifice" or any of the season 8 episodes that featured a lot of hurt Sam. That would be really helpful! Also, maybe more frequent comment fic memes? It's just a suggestion. Thanks!

[mimblexwimble.livejournal.com]

hi! added "bullet wound" & sacrifice episode tag. there is also a tag for the trials.

our comment fic memes currently take place once every three months. a new one will be coming up on july 1st. i will, however, talk to the mods about making it more frequent!

[center-galaxy.livejournal.com]

Thanks for your help! I look forward to next the comment fic meme! Thanks again!

[center-galaxy.livejournal.com]

Sorry! I hope I'm not being annoying, but I went to edit my tags and couldn't find these new tags under the "User's listed tags" box thing. Again, I'm new here so maybe I wasn't looking in the right place? Again, sorry if I'm being annoying, I just write a lot of Hurt!Sam stuff so having these tags would be helpful. Thanks!

[mimblexwimble.livejournal.com]

new tags are usually invisible until they are used. post your fic, and then on the post, click the "edit tags" button (it looks like a tag). from there you should be able to select the invisible tags too.

[center-galaxy.livejournal.com]

*Edit* After a few mistakes, I figured it out and got all the tags. I made a mistake with the formatting of the tags when I was trying to enter them. Sorry for the confusion and once again, thank you for your help!

[rirren.livejournal.com]

So I saw that Hoodie Time did a friending meme at some point. It seems like this would be a cool idea for OhSam. Can we do one? (If you haven't already)

[mimblexwimble.livejournal.com]

ooo, thank you for the suggestion! we'll get right on that!

[rirren.livejournal.com]

Yay! :D
Hoodietime had a template of questions that members could answer to give info about themselves if you wanted to check it out for some ideas.
Anyway, really looking forward to this now! :)

Food Issues/Weight Loss

[(Anonymous)]

Sam's always kind of weird about food, and I've read several different fics related to that. This might fall completely under the heading of eating disorders, it might not, I don't know.
