Caption: Hikaru no Go / Qi Hun event - Blind Go 2025 Edited manga page of Touya and Shindou bickering over a go board Touya: "Blind Go works are due on May 4th." Touya: "I'm assuming you haven't even started yours yet?" Shindou: "Rude!" Shindou: "I have some ideas that need more time to cook!" Touya: "Time to cook? It feels more likely that your tendency to procrastinate will only end in you not submitting anything." Shindou: "Hmph!" Rest of the patrons in Touya's go salon: [scurries away from impending fight]

Caption: Blind Go returns May 2025 Edited manga page of Touya and Shindou snapping at each other Shindou: "It's part of my process! I'll be done in time. I'll have multiple submissions actually!" Touya: "Blind Go now accepts all types of fanworks and there are no minimums, but I guess we'll have to do writing sprints and sleepovers every night until you finish." Shindou, yelling: "Deal! Highest word count gets to be the little spoon!"

❔Do I HAVE to guess❔

No, the guessing portion is optional and there's nothing different that you need to do if you aren't interested in that part of the event.

If you're a creator, please post to the Blind Go 2025 Collection on AO3. All of the anon and de-anoning will happen on the mod end.

❔How will the guessing portion work❔
When the collection is revealed on May 5th, all works will be marked "Anonymous". You can submit your guesses via a Google Form from a list of creators.

Per BG tradition, we will provide stats on who was the most successful guesser, so the stakes are high!
