SIGNUPS ARE NOW OPEN
Here is the signup form. Signups will close at 8:00 pm Eastern US time, Sunday, November 20th (What time is that for me?)
Here is a link to the screencast tutorial/transcripts. This is from last year, so some details are different.
If an approved character isn't coming up in the autocomplete, please notify us and as a temporary measure you can copy and paste the name from the tag set.
You can make up to six offers with specific characters. It will look like you can add more offers, but don't try to submit with more than six or else it won't work! However, if you go in to edit, and delete one of your offers, you'll then be able to add another for a total of six.
You can make a "bucket" offer of all the fandoms for which you're willing to offer to write for any of the nominated characters, using one of your six offers, by checking "Any", then listing all the fandoms you're happy offering on those terms in the Optional Tags box. The one hitch is that the optional tags autocomplete does not draw from our tagset, but spelling and spaces do matter. The easiest way to fill it in is to use the "Fandom:" line autocomplete and copy and paste fandoms from there one by one into the Optional Tags line until you are done, and then leave the last fandom in the Fandom line. Another option (safer if you have lots), make a comma-separated list in a text file by C&P'ing from the options page, then paste it in.
PS: I'm genuinely sorry that the corrections took so long, but getting rid of as many duplicates as possible was genuinely necessary, and I didn't want characters that were nominated to not be available. I apologize as well to anyone whose corrections we missed! I could keep correcting for DAYS...
