Artists and authors have now been revealed! Thank you to everyone who participated and helped out with this round, and thank you for being patient with the 2-day delay.

It'd be great if you could take the time to make sure you've left a comment on your gift, if you haven't already.

Deadline Delay

[personal profile] fgemods
AO3 is down for maintenance for a few hours tonight, and as we've received a number of requests for short extensions we've decided to postpone the general deadline by 24 hours. The new deadline is on October 5th, 11:55 PM UTC. (Countdown | What time is that for me?)

Works waiting in the moderation queue

We are checking the moderation queue regularly as works come in. If you have been waiting more than ~24 hours to have your work approved, please check the following:

  • Is your work still in draft mode? Please remember to post your drafts! We're able to see that a draft exists but not its contents, so click "Post Draft" or "Post Without Preview" to submit it.
  • Does your work meet the minimum requirements? If your work is an assignment, rather than a treat, we will not approve it unless it meets the minimums for the exchange: 2,000 words for fic and for art, lineart with basic colors/tones and background or two lineart drawings, not on lined paper, in a requested fandom and medium and containing one of the relationships or characters requested.

One Day to Go!

As of this post, it's now just over 24 hours to the deadline, on October 4th, 11:55 PM UTC. (Countdown | What time is that for me?)

Works waiting in the moderation queue

We are now checking the moderation queue regularly as works come in. If you have been waiting more than ~24 hours to have your work approved, please check the following:

  • Is your work still in draft mode? If, when you view the draft, it shows as "by anonymous [yourusername]" you have not been affected by the "reveals bug" (where works fail to pick up the correct collection settings and so are revealed immediately) and can go ahead to post the work in full by editing it and choosing "Post without Preview". If the draft comes up as simply "by [yourusername]" then you will need to discard your current draft and start the posting process again from scratch to avoid the bug.
  • Does your work meet the minimum requirements? If your work is an assignment, rather than a treat, we will not approve it unless it meets the minimums for the exchange: 2,000 words for fic and for art, lineart with basic colors/tones and background or two lineart drawings, not on lined paper, in a requested fandom and medium and containing one of the relationships or characters requested.

Assignments have been sent! You should receive an e-mail from AO3 with the details of your assignment soon. If you do not receive an e-mail within 24 hours, and it isn't in your spam folder, please contact us at fgemods@gmail.com. You can also find your assignment on your Assignments page, located at: http://archiveofourown.org/users/USERNAME/assignments

If there are any problems with your assignment, please contact us at fgemods@gmail.com (especially if you believe that you have been assigned to someone whose requests do not match your offers at all, as this may indicate a need to rerun matching entirely - we very much hope this won't happen, though). However, since assignments are going out a little early, please wait until Friday, August 2nd to contact us if the issue is a placeholder/locked letter.

If you have finished your own letter, but haven't shared it yet, you can still do so at the letters post.

Remember, assignments are due no later than Friday, October 4 at 11:55PM UTC. (Countdown | What time is that for me?)

  • Art requirements: You must submit complete art—sketches are not permitted. Art must be a minimum of lineart with basic colors/tones as well as background OR two lineart drawings. Lineart may not stand alone as a gift without colors/tones/background. Art may be traditional or digital, but cannot be drawn on lined paper. Manips and other graphics are not permitted.

  • Fic requirements: You must submit complete fic. Fic must be a minimum of 2,000 words and must stand on its own.


If you believe you will be unable to complete your assignment by the due date, the default deadline is Friday, September 20 at 11:55PM UTC.

We will post instructions on uploading your assignment as the deadline approaches!

We also have an initial batch of pinch hits coming, so be sure to check those out.

 Sign-ups close July 29th at 11:55 PM UTC. (Countdown | What time is that for me?)

Sign-up Form | AO3 Collection | Tagset | FAQ | Bucket Offers/Requests


If you're new to exchanges, this guide will walk you through signing-up. You can also read this tutorial from AO3. If you have any questions, comment below.

Please note:
  • You may edit your sign-up as much as you want until the deadline.
  • Requests will be visible throughout (and after) sign-ups.
  • Some tags may not appear in the drop-down menu but can still be used by copy and pasting from the tag set itself.
  • If you encounter any problems during your sign up, please let us know ASAP; some recent exchanges have been hit by AO3 bugs.
  • AO3 limits the number of relationships you can request/offer per fandom to 20. In order to make sure participants can still request/offer up to 20 relationships as well as up to 20 characters in one fandom, you can repeat a fandom once: that is, you can use up to 2 slots for each fandom. You must still have the minimum number of unique fandoms (3 requests and 4 offers). If you repeat a fandom, the tags used must be different: you cannot repeat characters or relationships under the same fandom.

Nominations are now closed! We'll be finalising the tagset in preparation for signups, opening on July 19th at 23:55 UTC.

If you spot any issues in the tag set, please use the comments of this post to let us know.

We have a few last questions for pending nominations; we have also indicated the actions we intend to take if we don't get responses before signups open.

Cherry Ames - Helen Wells & Julie Tatham
  • Cherry Ames & Mai Ling - is this meant to be "Mai Lee"? We will work on the assumption that it is unless we hear otherwise.


The Musketeers (2014)
  • d'Artagnan & Louis XIV de France - should this be Louis XIII? We will work on the assumption that it is unless we hear otherwise.


Iron Man (Movies)
  • The only nominated tag, Christine Everhart/Maya Hansen, would also be eligible under the general MCU tag - does the nominator have a particular reason for putting them under the more specific tag? We will move them to MCU unless we hear otherwise.



We also have two outstanding queries from the previous post:

Vampire: The Masquerade
  • All the nominated ships for this are from "L.A. by Night" which seems to be a specific game streamed on Twitch - we will adjust the tag set to add this as a specific fandom unless we hear arguments against it.


Star Wars - All Media Types
  • Darth Vader/Ben Solo | Kylo Ren - it's been suggested that the intent here is to exclude the Prequel Trilogy version of Anakin Skywalker (the tag for which is over), but if this is the case the AMT fandom is not suitable. We will be rejecting this tag unless the original nominator clarifies.

Tagset | Evidence Post | Rejected Noms

Nominations are closing soon, on July 18th at 11:55 PM UTC. Countdown | What time is that for me?

We have a few more queries about pending nominations:

German Mythology
  • The Loreley | Die Lorelei & None - the AO3 tag for the character is Die Loreley | The Lorelei and while the German spelling seems to be different between different versions, the English spelling seems to be consistently "Lorelei". Please clarify.


Star Wars - All Media Types
  • Darth Vader/Ben Solo | Kylo Ren - the canonical "Kylo Ren/Anakin Skywalker" tag has 14 fics complete and in English. Please clarify why this should be considered distinct.


Vampire: The Masquerade
  • All the nominated ships for this are between characters from "L.A. by Night" which seems to be a specific V:tM game streamed on Twitch - would it be better as a specific fandom in the tag set?
