The tagset has been cleaned up a bit (mostly Star Wars and MCU fandoms) - your nominations might have migrated to another film from that franchise or to the Crossover Fandom section.


In about an hour we'll open the collection for signups and they will remain open until May 3rd.

Reminder:
In your sign-up you're only required to state your DNWs (Do-Not-Wants), things that would make it hard for you to enjoy the work you'll be given. DNWs are individual and should be understandable and judgment free. You shouldn't box in your creator by DNWing 'everything but XYZ', or contradicting yourself by requesting 'XYZ & ABC' but DNWing that relationship.
You/Your creator will only be expected to follow the DNWs in the sign-up. If you don't have any DNWs, please state so in the sign-up.

You're welcome to include your likes and prompts in the sign-up or in the letter, but it's not a requirement.

There will be a space provided for a Dear Creator letter but if you choose to link it, please make sure it's accessible to everyone.  Keep in mind that any prompts you provide in the letter might not be used by your creator.

This year only we're also adding a Do-not-match requests. It's entirely optional and you do not have to use it at all (simply leave it empty) In the 'offers' section you'll see a space in which you can tell us if there's a user you'd prefer not to be matched with. We don't need to know the reason why. Keep in mind that if you're the only people who can be matched together, you could still end up matched.


You can request 3-10 fandoms, with 1-10 relationships in two mediums, fic and/or art. You can only choose relationships from the tagset. You need 3 unique fandoms to qualify for a gift, but your can include the same fandom more than once.
You can offer 3-10 fandoms with 1-10 relationships in two mediums, fic and/or art. You can only choose relationships from the tagset.

Request are what you'd want to receive.
Offers are what you're willing to write/draw.
They can be different fandoms.
Near the end of the exchange check out if you're offering at least one thing (fandom+relationship+medium) that someone is requesting.

Please keep in mind this in a gen exchange, so the focus should be on non-romantic/non-sexual relationships. They can appear in the background (unless your match states otherwise), but shouldn't be the focal point of your work.


Edit:
If you see the tags in the tagset but they don't appear in the drop-down menu in the sign-up form, try copying the exact tag from the tagset and pasting it in the space where the tags should appear. 

If you still haven't nominated, there's not a lot of time left.
After a brief period of clean-up the sign-ups will open :-) 

We're getting closer to sign-ups, with a little less than 48 hours left. Make sure you enter all the tags that interest you into the tagset.

I have made an attempt to clean up the tagset but as I'm still recovering (I'll be fine, no need to worry), there might be some tags missing or suddenly multiplied - please check if your nominations are on place before the sign-ups open. 
Feel free to let me know about duplicates.

Some general notices:
I have grouped tags with more than 4 characters - with various success. If there's a more suitable name, lmk!
