A reminder of the rules (which you'll also find on the sign-up form itself):
You can request 3-10 fandoms with 1-10 ships and/or characters. While you can repeat fandoms, you must have 3 unique ones selected to participate.
You can offer 3-10 fandoms with 1-10 ships and/or characters. You must offer 3 unique fandoms to participate. Matches are made based on one fandom and one character or ship.
You can edit/delete your sign-ups until the sign-up period closes.
If a sign-up does not include the required number of fandoms, it will be deleted when sign-ups close.
All fandoms and ships requested and offered in this exchange must be chosen from those nominated into the tagset. There is a known bug where not all tags in the tagset will display in the signup form. If you run into this problem, copying and pasting the tag from the tagset should do the trick. If it doesn't let us know, either in a comment here or by email [classicfilmexchange@gmail.com] and we'll look into it, too.
If no offers match your requests, you will go out for claiming as an initial pinch hit (IPH).
If there aren't any requests that match your offers, the mods will contact you at the email address associated with your AO3 account to see if there is anything else you can offer. If you do not reply within 24 hours, or there is nothing else you can offer, your sign-up will be deleted.
Dear Creator letters: There will be a section in the sign-up where letters can be linked to give your gifter further details on your likes, dislikes and other request details. Dear Creator letters are optional.
In the optional details and in Dear Creator letters, please do not place preference for one ship over the others, as there isn't a guarantee you will be matched on that ship.
DNWs: Please include anything you don't want to receive in the Optional Details field in your AO3 sign-up and label this clearly as "Do Not Wants" (DNW). If a DNW is included in your gift, only reasonable DNWs in your sign-up will be enforced. Please remember that DNWs cannot be used to box your creator into producing a very specific work.
We will not be enforcing DNWs in letters.
If your sign-up breaks any of the above rules or is found to be in bad faith, the mods will contact you. Please respond; otherwise, you risk your sign-up being deleted.
Please let us know if you have questions, or run into issues with the form (beyond the know issue mentioned above, though we're happy to try to help with that as well!!).
