The Spring into Arda team has announced their plans for B2MeM and the 20th anniversary celebrations here:
https://www.tumblr.com/spring-into-arda/807326145857126400/b2mem-20th-anniversary
To summarize:
The plan is for:
1)
a regular or "classic" event in March that will involve revisiting earlier prompts, with Bingo numbers being called on Tumblr for anyone revisiting Bingo challenges;
2)
a year-long project to encourage each other to update Fanlore entries in the Tolkien fandom, with invitations to track progress and claim rewards (Project Pengolodh);
3)
a virtual convention to be held on Discord on 27-29 March (Fellowship Fest).
More details in the linked Tumblr entry and the Google documents linked there in turn.
There is also an invitation to volunteer for roles in the Fellowship Fest.

Sticky: Welcome post
Are you someone who is participating in ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
b2mem the first time this year and would like advice from someone who has participated before?
Or are you someone who is participating again and would like to ask fellow participants a question, vent writing frustrations, or talk about anything else related to the event? This community is for you.
In 2012, at the time of the first B2MeM Bingo, shadowbrides created an unofficial support community for those suffering from severe card addiction, b2memsupport on LiveJournal. That community continued in use, at least sporadically, until b2mem itself migrated to Dreamwidth.
I thought having such a forum available on Dreamwidth might be helpful this year.
[ETA: This DW community was founded in 2019, and I was happy to see that some participants found it useful. It will continue to be available during B2MeM in 2020. For more information (and rules), see the profile of the comm.]
[ETA/2: 2020 was the last year of B2MeM atb2mem on Dreamwidth. B2MeM is now run by a different team of mods, chiefly on a dedicated Discord, with linked AO3 collections.]

Admin Post: B2MeM Bingo Numbers for 20 and 21 March
Yesterday's number was: N38.
Today's number is: G56
Today's number is: G56
Update re B2MeM 2026
For reasons to do with unforeseeable IRL developments as well as some tech issues, the mods of B2MeM 2026 have less availability than planned.
Hence some issues and delays to the plans as originally posted.
However, the AO3 collection has been filling with submissions, and the B2MeM bingo numbers are being posted regularly to Discord.
There have also now been reblogs to the Tumblr queue (with edits that are not posted to AO3).
