I also think, btw, that it would be entirely reasonable to ask people to at least make a guess as to what the rating level of a story might turn out to be when they describe the idea, as that could be quite relevant to the person making the choice.
Good point!
My ficathon schedule is completely full through September, but any time after that would work OK with me.
Since I expect a lot of people will be involved in NaNoWriMo, that would push it back to December. This could be good or bad with regard to people's schedules, because people are either going crazy getting ready for Christmas, or actually have holidays and therefore more time.
And I definitely think that eight weeks would have to be the minimum for this, because I agree, one's neglected plot bunnies are often more complicated than your average ficathon request.
So that would make sign-ups late November/early December, and stories due early February.
