Nominations open!

[galfridian]

Nominations are now open on AO3!

You have until June 12 @ 11:59 PM EDT to nominate up to 8 fandoms you might want to request or offer for Crossovering. (What time is that for me?)


Don't worry, we'll give warnings here and on Tumblr an hour before we close nominations, and we'll make sure everyone has plenty of time to get them in.

Now, here's how it works:

• If you've done nominations for Yuletide or another exchange, this will be very familiar. You'll go here under your AO3 account and select up to 8 fandoms.


• If the Archive provides you with a fandom tag while you're typing, please use that. It will make the process run much more smoothly.



• Once you've filled all of the slots, just click on submit at the bottom of the page and you're done! (Of course, you aren't required to use all 8 slots.)



• For fandoms with multiple continuities, you have the option of using the umbrella fandom tag (Fandom X - All Media Types, or Fandom Y and related fandoms, for example), or nominating each continuity separately (Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy VIII, &c.). Please check in at the Brainstorming Post to see if you have any overlap with another participant and keep in mind that we'll be using only the top 100 or so fandoms.



• Nominating fandoms is not a commitment to participate in the exchange itself! We'd love to have you, but if you just want to make sure the bases are covered for friends or to make sure there is something you're interested in if you do sign up, go right ahead! No one can write it or request it if it isn't nominated.



• If you're still unsure about how the exchange works, make sure you take a look at our FAQ page.



• If you need to let the mods know information about your fandom that will help it get approved or tagged properly, please leave that info in the comments so we can refer to it when we review nominations. Any other questions or comments or discussion of nominations can take place here as well.
