One hour drawing challenge tag?

Posted under General

In short, there's a japanese twitter account who posts in semi-set intervals the names of three Touhou characters. Artists who partecipate are supposed to draw a sketch/drawing of one of said characters with the time limit of one hour. After they're done they post the result to the hashtag #深夜の真剣お絵描き60分一本勝負. It is quite famous, and some western artists partecipate too.

Should there be a tag or pool for artworks posted under said event?

The tag speed drawing has been proposed before to encompass all of these, see topic #13635. I think it's ok to go ahead and create it, with the guideline being "under 2 hours" and artist stating they did it within a fixed amount of time, through the use of tag or otherwise. There are other challenges beside 1-hour-draw, most of them self-imposed ones - I've seen 30-minute challenge for sure.

So a pool for Touhou one-draws and a tag for the theme overrall?

You'll probably be told that the tag combo of 'touhou speed_drawing' prevents the need for that pool

That is what i'm trying to prevent - usually there are only three touhou characters available, and it's only for a determinate amount of time. I don't want to throw inside artworks NOT made for that.
