Nominations have closed!

Signups will be opening as soon as tagset cleanup has been finished, which will be at the earliest tomorrow evening EDT.

Please help us out by checking your fandoms for:

Misspelled names and other issues - Once someone requests a tag you're stuck with however it looks so today is the day for these fixes!
Duplicate nominations - These are things like "Shen Yuan" and "Shen Yuan | Shen Qingqiu" both appearing under a fandom, one will be yeeted.
Wandering tags - This is when the same tag appears under two fandoms (e.g. "Sauron (Rings of Power)" appearing in both LOTR and Rings of Power). Please let me know which of the fandoms the character belongs in, if multiple then a tag for each fandom will be created to fix it.
Your Fandom Is Missing - We didn't reject any nominations, so if your fandom is missing then it may have been eaten by another fandom in the tagset. Let me know and I can put it back in.

Things we can't do anything about:

The top level category (e.g. Anime & Manga) is something AO3 sets. If a fandom appears in the wrong one or multiple of these, that's normal and won't affect signups.

The tagset can be found at this link

After signups close, nominations will reopen. Please check closely for duplicates before nominating during signups as it will be harder to do any cleanup once people are requesting things.

All gifts are in and reveals are set for June 29 at 8pm. Thank you to all our wonderful pinch hitters!

fandom5k

The deadline approaches! It is 11:59 PM US Eastern Time on 28 June. Here is a countdown. If you have any concerns about the deadline, please email me as soon as you can!

As we get closer to that date, please keep in mind that your gift must:

Be a complete, standalone story of at least 5,000 words or a complete, standalone comic of at least 5 pages (with at least 18 panels total)
Focus on one of the characters/relationships requested by your recipient
Not contain any of your recipient's Do Not Wants
Not use generative AI to create text or images

Full rules are here.

You are free to continue editing your gift as much as you like after that point. However, as of the deadline and at any time afterward, the work must be one that could be revealed while fulfilling the requirements of the exchange. "Placeholder" works that could not serve as complete gifts are not allowed and may be grounds for a ban from the exchange.

We know most participants turning in placeholders have every intention of coming back to fix them before reveals, but when something unexpected comes up and they can't do so, it can cause problems for the entire exchange.

Again, if you have any concerns about your work, please reach out! It's much easier to talk things through early.

In the meantime, this is our last pre-deadline pinch hit signal boost. See our most recent post for available pinch hits!

longficmod posting in

fandom5k

This is the last pinch hit post before the deadline! We have one new pinch hit.

These are all due 17 July at 23:59 US Eastern Time.

If you can claim one of these, please comment with your AO3 name and the number of the pinch hit you want. All comments are screened.

If you aren't signed up but are only pinch hitting, please consider our treats for pinch hitters post!

If you are signed up, you may ask to exchange your assignment for an open pinch hit. If you are given that pinch hit and fulfill it, this won't count as a default. Please tell me in your comment requesting a pinch hit if you are asking to swap.
