Hi! What is the rarity requirement? 100 fics max, 200 fics, 500 fics? And will the "otp: true" measure be used or not?

[ashling]

oh my bad upon rereading I see it's 200 fics. otp: true, though?

[rareexmod]

Yes, it will be used! I'll be updating the rules to reflect that shortly.

Can we nominate & pairs?

[rareexmod]

This is for / pairs only, though "rare & ships" is an interesting theme for an exchange, if anyone wants to pick it up! But & ships are not within the scope of this one.

(Hi! Not to sound like Debbie Downer for this...)

Hey! I like to point out something about "Detroit: Become Human"

First One: Connor/Upgraded Connor | RK900 has almost 400 fics in the pairing, and it was approved. -> Connor/Upgraded Connor | RK900 (D:BH) is the tag it's under on "Detroit: Become Human" in Video Games.

Second One: "Connor (Detroit: Become Human)/Luv (Blade Runner)" located in "Detroit: Become Human" in Video Games needs to be put in the Crossover Section I do believe.

Thanks!

The exchange determines eligibility by checking for less than 200 complete works in English at least a thousand words long, after otp:true is applied. Within those parameters, "Connor/Upgraded Connor | RK900" has 72 works.

"Connor (Detroit: Become Human)/Luv (Blade Runner)" is under "Detroit: Become Human" and "Crossover Fandom"; this will be looked at. Thank you for the alert!

Thank you!!

Hey! Hey!

The “David Sarif/Jim Miller” yah can be deleted out of the “Unassociated Characters & Relationships” section! It’s listed already under “Deus Ex (Video Games)” as “Jim Miller/David Sarif”. I don’t think someone saw the previous tag in DX, so they entered it twice.

Thanks!

[rareexmod]

Thank you!

Np! :D

Somehow a pairing I put down got nominated twice and approved, but now it won't let me add anymore nominations. What can I do to fix it?

[rareexmod]

That's an AO3 bug. It won't let you add nominations now it's duplicated them, and the duplicates can't be removed. Feel free to leave your remaining nominations here, via PM, or email, and they will be added for you.

[niewanyin]

Thank you! They are

Narcissa Malfoy/Arthur Weasley for Harry Potter

Jaime Lannister/Elia Martell, Ashara Dayne/Barristan Selmy, & Tywin Lannister/Olenna Tyrell for A Song of Ice and Fire

I will inform you if I have more later, but that's what I was trying to add now.

[rareexmod]

The first was there as "Narcissa Black Malfoy/Arthur Weasley". The others have been added.

i was just wondering about the sign ups. do we have to sign up to offer something in order to request things? i'm not really a creator and wouldn't want to make an obligation i couldn't keep

[rareexmod]

Yes. This is an exchange, so it requires both offers and requests. You could try fandomgiftbox; that has no requirements to create in its signup.

I appreciate that you wouldn't want to sign up if you feel you can't create. It's very considerate.

[(Anonymous)]

Do you have an estimate for when the assignments will be sent?

[rareexmod]

It depends on if everyone has someone to create for. Assignments could be out in less than a day. If there's anyone with no assignment, they will be contacted and given a set time to reply with changes to their offers.

Are you still expecting the collection to open on time or will there be a delay since the final pinch hit is still unclaimed?

[rareexmod]

There will be a delay. The collection is projected to open on Monday August 19 at 11:59 PM EST.
