This is the place to discuss and brain storm ways we can keep the board active during the hiatus

We already discussed ...

• Season 1 rewatch
• Making the history thread a 411 about the Borgias
• Keeping the threads we have got and get them active before opening new ones

Time Zones for the Re-watch
~Phoenix~ (Emma) - GMT (UK)

Threads that need pretty OP's
Francois/Cesare appreciation thread
David/Juan
Holly/Lucrezia


Any new ideas please tell us here

red velvet

Awesome! Thanks for opening this!

kindness is free

No problem

We can brainstorm ideas here

red velvet

It sounds like a good plan. Like when we'll rewatch etc and how to get people interested, I assume?

Is there a date when the show will start filming?

claire_bear2007

from the interviews of Francois, he said end of July they'll start filming

s e r e n i t y

Thanks for starting the thread, hope to see more people participate in the brainstorming
anyways Im up for a rewatch, we might want to gather everyones timezones and everything when the time for that comes, I think its too soon right now though

maybe after that or inbetween, since its a very long hiatus we could even watch some of the actors' other works and discuss them in their appreciation threads
speaking of appreciation threads, maybe we could start working on prettying up the OPs ... or maybe theyre already pretty, dunno havent checked in a while and to be honest typing is taking too much energy alone for me to go and check

We do need to find out everyones time zones who want to do the re watch so we can organise a time that will suit most of us

We have got a very long hiatus if they aren't filming till end of July! So we won't do the re watch just yet.

I like that idea Sheida of watching the actors own projects and discussing them in their appreciation threads

I think most of the appreciation threads have got OP's that are getting there some don't have much I'll go through them and see what needs doing

Speaking of OP, can anyone make art? Maybe we can divide and conquer, each of us work on for a couple of threads I feel a bit uncomfortable using other people works from Tumblr as our main artwork for the OP Some of the threads already have some, but most don't.

red velvet

I can only do very simple art so it wouldn't be anything fancy but for temporary it wouldn't be horrible. And each thread in addition to needing opening art could have pic/scene of the moment. Reasons, wishlist etc. And all those things could also keep us busy and not feeling like we're running out of things to say

Nonie

Simple artwork will do, Chrissy I cannot make anything fancy myself but I'm pretty anal when it comes to using our own artwork for OP

And I agree on Reasons and Pics of the moment. Those ought to fill up the OP pretty nicely We could even have something like a Track list

red velvet

Your artwork is beautiful Nonie, way better than I can do

Track list would also be good
I feel like there are other OP staples that I'm someone forgetting!

OH we could add bios! Like character bios/actor bios/couples bios kind of things

Nonie

There are so many things we can do for OP; we OWN it

But it's better to stick with the basic stuff for now since we have a lot to work on as it is Bios will be a good addition too

Now we only need to decide who gets to do which thread. But we should probably wait for the others too to decide

red velvet

Yeah, we should wait to decide. It's kind of like choosing lots. It's all very exciting and we do have a lot of time to get this done in. Maybe we could assign each person a thread for x amount of time and then we come back again for the next round of threads? I don't want anyone to feel super rushed about getting things done. I know what kind of a headache doing an OP can be

Nonie

I don't like to be rush either since I still have other thread I'm working on but I couldn't find the time or the inspiration to get the work done.

I have Khal Drogo OP banner that I need to do but haven't even started
