Authors and artists have now been revealed! We hope that you enjoyed your gift and/or creating for your recipient. As this round wraps up, you may want to redate your works so that they appear near the top of the fandom/ship/character tag, if you hadn't already.

Take the time to make sure you've left a comment on your gift, and thanks to everyone for making this round possible!

Before the collection opens, you may want to redate your works so that they appear near the top of the fandom/ship/character tag. Creators will be revealed on November 1st at 11:55 PM.

There are two pinch hits remaining which need to be filled before the collection can open. This is now scheduled for 11:55PM UTC on Tuesday, October 25th. The deadline for these pinch hits will be 24 hours before that, 11:55PM UTC on Monday, the 24th of October. (Countdown | What time is that for me?)

Please note that the minimum requirements for Fandom Growth Exchange are slightly higher than some other exchanges:
  • 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.

To claim, please leave a comment with your AO3 username and the pinch hit you would like to claim.

CLAIMED! Pinch Hit #19, fic/art - Marvel 616, X-Men Evolution, Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon | Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon )

Hello, everyone. We sincerely appreciate everyone's patience as we sort things out behind the scenes. We regretfully have to announce that reveals will be delayed once more due to unexpected circumstances with the assignments.

Within 24 hours, we will have a new post with pinch hits, as well as a new date for reveals.

We wish to express our deepest apologies for all the delays. We know how frustrating it must be for everyone who wants to enjoy their gift and see their recipient's reaction. Trust us, we know how that feels. We will do everything in our power to make reveals happen during this upcoming week.

With regret, we have to announce a further week's delay to the reveal of the collection, as we still don't have all pinch hits covered. This means reveals will now be on 21st October, with creator reveals on 28th October.

A revised pinch hit post of currently needed assignments will follow on Saturday after we have had a chance to assess the current situation in full.

Many thanks for your patience.

[personal profile] fgemods
If you're willing to beta another person's work, leave a comment that specifies at least the following:
  • which fandom(s) you can help with
  • the type of beta you can offer
  • anything you can't beta
  • how people can best contact you to ask for your help
You do not need to be signed up to be a beta! In addition, due to the nature of the exchange, it'd be helpful to note whether you can beta things canon-blind.

If you're a creator needing help finding a beta, and there isn't anyone in the comments here offering what you need, please contact the mods (either via the Page-a-mod post, or by emailing us at fgemods@gmail.com). Posting directly in the comments here asking for help may make it too obvious what your assignment is.

Thank you to everyone we've heard back from! We've contacted two additional participants—we are in communication with one and haven't heard back from the other. Please check your email if your AO3 username starts with M!

We still expect to have assignments out by or before July 27th at 11:55 PM UTC.

Now that sign-ups are closed, we are working on matching. It will take a little more time than usual since we need to edit some sign-ups to make the matching work properly. (See this post for more information.) However, we expect to be on track to send out assignments by July 27th, 11:55pm UTC.

We will put up another post once we've identified and emailed any unmatchable participants.

In the meantime, you can browse the app for requests or add onto the new promo post!

Sign-ups close July 24th at 11:55 PM UTC. (Countdown | What time is that for me?)

Sign-up Form | Bucket Offers/Requests | App for Browsing Requests

Reminder: Don't forget to check out the Uncategorized Fandoms! Due to this being a rarity-focused exchange, we have many fandoms relegated to that section in the tagset because they haven't been canonized by AO3 yet.

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; AO3 bugs can sometimes hit exchanges.
  • 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.

Tagset | Evidence Post | Rejected Noms

This is the final clarifications post—take a moment to check if we've asked about one of your nominations below. The remaining out-standing queries have also been included here. Queries that do not get a response before we start opening sign-ups will be rejected or edited.

Hataraku Maou-Sama! | The Devil Is a Part-Timer!
  • Ashiya Shirou | Alciel/Maou Sadao | Satan Jacob - After filters, this ship seems to have 12 works from 9 authors which is close enough to the eligibility cut off that we want to ask if there are reasons some of them should be excluded

Landry Series - V. C. Andrews
  • Gisselle Dumas/Peter Tate (Landry Series - V. C. Andrews) - We can't find information about a character named Peter. Could the nominator clarify?

Marvel

  • Multiple tags - This is a very broad umbrella fandom. The nominated tags seem to be sufficiently rare but we just want to double check the nominator's intent here. For example, for the tag "Clint Barton & Pietro Maximoff & Wanda Maximoff & Steve Rogers" we would consider a work involving comics-616 Clint, X-Men Alternate Timeline Movies Quicksilver, MCU Wanda and Ultimates Steve to be an entirely valid fill. Is this really what's desired or would a more specific fandom tag work better?

Marvel Future Revolution
  • Pietro Maximoff & Wanda Maximoff - This Wiki page has a long list of characters included in the game which does not seem to feature Pietro; please provide evidence he exists in the game.
  • Any & Any, Any/Any - Only nominations for specific characters will be accepted

闪耀暖暖 | Shining Nikki (Video Game)
  • Jax|Yuka (Shining Nikki), Mercury/Jax|Yuka (Shining Nikki) - After learning that Jax and Yuka are strongly implied to share a body, we understand the piping. (We appreciate those who have chimed in so far in the comments to explain!) However, the case still appears subject to interpretation. The game seems to depict Jax and Yuka as two distinct personalities interacting with one another, rather than acting as one coherent being. Could the nominator clarify whether the tags "Jax & Yuka" and "Jax/Mercury/Yuka" would be more appropriate?


[personal profile] fgemods
Tagset | Evidence Post | Rejected Noms

Take a moment to check if we've asked about one of your nominations below or in the previous post. Also, a couple quick reminders: when nominating characters, do so in the form "Character & None". In addition, disambiguating is not required, but it can be particularly helpful for us if there are interconnected or umbrella canons.

  • Pietro Maximoff & Wanda Maximoff - This Wiki page has a long list of characters included in the game which does not seem to feature Pietro; please provide evidence he exists in the game.

Doctor Strange (Movies) and Marvel Cinematic Universe
  • Multiple tags - many tags nominated in these two fandoms use nicknames for the different version of Doctor Strange from other universes (specifically, "Defender Strange", "Sinister Strange" and "Strange Supreme"); can the nominator confirm that they are confident these are not ambiguous and will be understood to mean the same characters by everyone offering/requesting the tags? There are also a number of tags referring to "Clea Strange" - we intend to modify these to just "Clea" unless there are compelling reasons not to do so.

仙王的日常生活 | The Daily Life of the Immortal King (Cartoon)
  • Lin Xiaoyu/Sun Rong (The Daily Life of the Immortal King) - The only "Lin Xiaoyu" we can find online is a Tekken character

Hataraku Maou-Sama! | The Devil Is a Part-Timer!
  • Ashiya Shirou | Alciel/Maou Sadao | Satan Jacob - after filters, this ship seems to have 12 works from 9 authors which is close enough to the eligibility cut off that we want to ask if there are reasons some of them should be excluded

Take a moment to check if we've asked about one of your nominations below. Also, a reminder that while disambiguating is not required, it can be helpful if there are interconnected or umbrella canons.

Archer (Cartoon)
  • Ray Gillette/Algernop Krieger - After filters and discounting fics where the ship does not seem to be the focus, this tag appears to have 6 authors, which is close enough that we are double-checking to see if we have missed anything.
Au service de la France | A Very Secret Service (TV)
  • Jean-René Calot/les gemelles - Does "les gemelles" refer to the characters IMDB calls "Ana" and "Maria" in the episode "C'est Beau la Pologne"?
闪耀暖暖 | Shining Nikki (Video Game)
  • Jax|Yuka (Shining Nikki), Mercury/Jax|Yuka (Shining Nikki) - Since Jax and Yuka appear to be different characters, we're confused about the use of piping. Was this meant to be Jax/Yuka and Mercury/Jax/Yuka, or something else?
