Chiming in to agree with the disappointment about this abrupt change (just days before nominations open) to an exchange that's worked just fine as is - on character matching - for years. Plus, as others have said, we already have Shipoween to fill the ship-based needs of a Halloween exchange. The two exchanges have co-existed for several years without any issues, and it's fun participating in both.
I've had my nominations set for months on the basis that we were still using the eternal tagset, which is supposed to be used year after year. That's why we keep adding to it, and it's also worked just fine. Please reconsider!
I agree with using both the eternal tagset, keeping it open for new character nominations, and the 2021 tagset, if you do want to try this experiment out. Or maybe consider upping the number of character/ship nominations from six to ten!
