Post-Assignment Notes
So hopefully by now you all have your assignments. The archive is now open! Assignments are due between now and 10pm (Pacific Standard Time) 9 November 2013. Stories will be revealed 10am (PST) 12 November 2013, or whenever it occurs that everyone has a story ( Read more... ) -
Assignments Sent
I have pressed the "Send Assignments" button, and you all should therefore be seeing them shortly. If you don't in the next hour or so, check your spam box. If you don't after that, comment here or e-mail the mod account, and we'll figure out what went wrong. -
Bata List
While you're waiting for assignments to go out (probably this evening, my time), consider taking the time to add your name to the beta list. Having your story beta read is not required, but we encourage it, and it's a nice way to help out. Also, you get to see stories before anyone else, which is cool.

If, at that time, your sign up does not meet the minimum offers and requests (three fandoms with two pairings in each), it will not be matched and you will not be able to participate this year. -
Twelve-Hour Warning (and other details)
Sign ups will close at 10pm Pacific Daylight Time, 25 September 2013. What time is it in Vancouver (PDT) right now?Please double check your sign ups and your inboxes (and your spam folders). People who are not offering and requesting a minimum three fandoms with two or more pairings in each of them, will not be matched or able to participate this ( Read more... ) -
In which one of the mods was a dork, and is sorry (last minute rules change)
Looking at how the matching will work, I have realised that the way the single pairing exception rule is set up is rather silly, and somewhat counter productive. I hope you will forgive a last minute rules change, especially those who went out of their way to comply with the bloody thing (and even more especially to the people who pointed all this ( Read more... )
