Looking For a Co-Mod

Thu, 21 Jun 2018 15:05:28 GMT

Posted by: genexmod

It's almost that time of the year again!

I'm looking for a co-mod for the exchange. I'll still be handling most of the work for the exchange. The only work I'm anticipating that the co-mod will be doing is handling things on the communication front (replying to comments and emails etc), putting up pinch hit posts if necessary (i.e. I'm unable to get to my computer at that time, and I know this in advance), and opening/closing noms, signups etc at specific times. I might also ask for a second opinion on some issues. I will give prior warning of when I'll require co-mod's help. In addition, IRL isn't looking completely stable right now so co-mod has to be willing to take over the bulk of the work for the late August period if necessary.

The co-mod will have a separate co-mod account and email.

The exchange will be running from early July to mid-September, though I'm willing to move the dates forward slightly if necessary. Anyone who's interested should expect to be able to devote at least 30 minutes, preferably an hour, to exchange-related work daily. (This is probably an overestimate, but better safe than sorry.)

Familiarly with the AO3 exchange interface, while not a requirement, is a definite plus.

If you're interested, please leave a comment on this post (comments are screened) or email me at genexmoderator@gmail.com with your contact information and previous modding experience.

Creators Revealed

Posted by: genexmod

Creators have been revealed! We have 61 works in the collection this year.

Due to the series of unfortunate events that happened to me this year, I'm considering finding a co-mod to step in if necessary next year. If that's happening, a post will go up on the comm some time before nominations.

Many thanks to fandomgiftboxmods , who volunteered to help out while I was sick and without whom I would have been in trouble.

If you have any concerns/issues/comments, you can bring them up on this post or email me at genexmoderator@gmail.com

I'm terribly sorry about this, but I fell ill and now have a IV line in my hand, and it's v. difficult for me to type one-handed. I'm also on some pretty heavy drugs and I can't guarantee that I won't mess up somehow. Would someone be able to handle posting pinch hits? (Again, I'm so sorry about this.)

Signups Open!

Sat, 08 Jul 2017 17:48:58 GMT

Posted by: genexmod

Signups are now open!

Signup form | Tagset | Requests summary | Signup summary | Letters post

There is an AO3 bug where some relationships in the tagset do not appear in the drop-down menu. If this happens, please copy and paste the relationship from the tagset.

You may offer a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 10 fandoms, with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 20 relationships per fandom.
You may request a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 10 fandoms, with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 20 relationships per fandom.
'Any' means you are requesting/offering all relationships in the tagset which have been nominated under the requested/offered fandom.
You can request and offer fic, art, or fic and art. Medium(s) offered/requested can vary across fandoms.

You will be matched on 1 fandom, 1 relationship, and 1 freeform.

EDIT: I have fixed an issue with the offers, and the offers should now be working. I'm very sorry about this!

I cannot make any changes to the tagset after the fandom has been requested or offered, sorry.

Signups close at 23:59 Pago Pago time (-11 UTC) on the 16th of July.

I have either approved or rejected all tags. Signups will be opened within the next 45 minutes unless there are any changes to be made to the tagset.

In particular, I made executive decisions on the following points:
1. Alec McDowell | X5-494 & Dean Winchester - I assumed that these characters were from Dark Angel and SPN respectively.
2. Diana (Wonder Woman) & Steve Rogers - There doesn't seem to be a Steve Rogers in the DCEU, and since this relationship has been already nominated under crossovers, I rejected it.
3. Wrt X-Men, I folded the original & alternate timeline movies into the movieverse, but kept the disambiguation so that specified versions of the characters could be requested. (I do know this causes duplicates, but it seemed the best solution.)

Outstanding issues wrt tagset.

Clarifications pt. 3

Thu, 06 Jul 2017 17:02:54 GMT

Posted by: genexmod

As of 4:15 p.m. UTC I have not rejected any nominations yet. Any nominations rejected have been in error; please contact me ASAP if this happened to you. As always, please also inform me of duplicates/misspellings/migrations/wrong categorizations ASAP.

Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon | Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon/Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon | Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon (Anime & Manga)
Are these both the same fandom? If so, would combining them be okay?

Crossovers:
Alec McDowell | X5-494 & Dean Winchester - Is this Dean Winchester from Supernatural and Alec McDowell from Dark Angel?

DCEU:
Diana (Wonder Woman) & Steve Rogers - Is there a character called Steve Rogers in the DCEU? If not, could the version of Steve Rogers being nominated be specified?

X-Men:
There are nominations for X-Men Movies, X-Men Alternate Timeline Movies, X-Men Original Timeline Movies, and Wolverine. At present, I'm thinking of approving all four fandoms; the other option would be to fold everything (or everything but Wolverine) under the umbrella X-Men Movies tag, and then disambiguate so that the version of the movie is clear. Would someone more knowledgeable about X-Men tell me if this works?
