NOTE: Because there didn't seem to be an overwhelming opinion on the changes, I made a few tweaks to the schedule. Both collections will be revealed the same day, and the author reveal will be a week later. The prompts for Madness will not be revealed immediately after the assignments go out, as this will give people participating in both more time to work on their assignment, also to stick to the spirit of Madness (writing as many fics as you want in a shorter time frame). Here's the final schedule:
Tag nominations open: July 1st
Signups open: July 12th
Signups close: July 23th
Assignments sent out: by July 29th
Fics due: anytime before August 31st
Prompts Revealed/Madness: August 17th
Main and Madness collections open: September 11th
Authors revealed: September 19th
There will be more posts about exact deadlines, and Madness as we get closer to those dates.
Remember, if you have multiple prompts, you can make multiple (up to five) requests! All your prompts don't have to be in one request. I am mentioning this because last year some people's prompts had more characters than they had requested, because you can only request five characters per request. But if you make more than one request, you can request more characters.
Also, if you are requesting relationships, make sure to request those characters as well! The matching will be done by characters first! If you haven't requested those characters, but want them in a relationship, you're unlikely to be matched on those.
Here is an example of how this would look:
So you can see I had five prompts, so I made five requests. I was able to request more than five characters, because I used the multiple requests. I also requested relationships, AND the characters involved in those relationships.
