Final warning post. You've got until 11pm EST to sign yourself up to play -- or to convince other people to, if you're worried you're in a hard to match fandom.

And on the subject of warnings....please make sure you are actually eligible to be remixed in the fandoms you're offering. You need to have written at least 5 stories of at least 500 words

Hello! I am wondering if any fandom clean-up is necessary on the offers and requests. For example, I've noticed that some people signed up under Veronica Mars (TV) and others signed up under Veronica Mars (All Media Types). Do you want those treated as separate fandoms for matching purposes? (I signed up for both, in case it made matching easier for you, but I can change it to one or the other easily.) I think at least one person signed up just as "Star Trek," which isn't a widely used umbrella fandom. They probably match with other people who've signed up for specific Star Trek franchises, but AO3 might not see it that way. I also see that some people are signing up for individual X-Men movies rather than the whole series, although that might not be a problem since a lot of people are offering/requesting those.

Hi! Thank you for letting us know. We've given ourselves a bit of time before assignments go out, so we'll probably run the matching and see how things go (look at my scared face!), and then see if there are specific issues people can easily address.

When do assignments go out? I've been looking for that date. Did I miss it?

[angelgazing]

Assignments will go out ASAP. No later than next Sunday.

Speaking of which, X-Men Movies is not an umbrella fandom, though I suspect some think it is. X-Men Movieverse is.

Just wanted to note that it says that sign-ups close at 11:59 PM EST on the AO3 comm profile. So anybody basing their plans on that might be confused.

For what it's worth, I only closed signups, just this moment, at 12:30am EST?
