If you can make a new main gift for this participant comment on this post or email me at halloweenmod@gmail.com when it's up.

Good work. This has been resolved.

We are on track for revealing on time!

We still have Battleship, which runs until creator reveals.

Post deadline pinch hits are in the comments. Links to them will be placed here. You can claim by commenting on here or emailing me at halloweenmod@gmail.com.

EDIT: Pinch Hits are due October 29 23:59 Zulu time. If you need more than that we can talk through emails.


No pinch hits.

Due to issues with the google group last year, all pinch hits will be posted as comments on this post. All other comments will be screened. To claim you can respond to them here or email me at halloweenmod@gmail.com. Make sure you include your AO3 screenname. You do not need to be signed up to claim a pinch hit.

No Pinch Hits! Come back later!

Sign-Ups are closed. Matches are being generated. I will edit this post to say how many people I will be contacting about adding additional offers.

Edit: There are two unmatchables. They will be given 48 hours to respond to an email I send them.

If there are any issues contact me ASAP.

Edit: I made an error when setting up the freeform tags and set it to 1 instead of 0. Therefore I have added one more tag "Do not ignore my fic/art and trick/treat preferences for extra gifts."

Please accept my apologies for this error.

Tagset

Are these defined groups with characters having personalities and names or are they vague, ill-defined groups with people without distinct personalities?

Kiseki no Sedai | Generation of Miracles (Kuroko no Basket)
The Nazgûl Sisters (Shadow of Mordor)
Three Good Fairies (Sleeping Beauty 1959)
Seven Dwarfs (Disney)
Hunk's Family (VLD)
Lance's Family (VLD)
Shiro's Family (VLD)
Vehicle Voltron crew who cameo'd at end of S8 (VLD)

Does Under the Red Hood refer to the animated movie?

Is Yu-Gi-Oh! (Toei anime) different from the other Yu-Gi-Oh fandoms in the tagset?

I am going to split up Greek & Roman Mythology. Anyone that was under the joint fandom I will try and put their equivalent in each of the two.

I am breaking up the Nightmare on Elm Street movies between original and reboot. Anyone that is in both will be found under both.

I will be working on fixing the errors pointed out to me earlier.

If you would like something manually added to the tagset I will add up to three items per person (not per AO3 account). Number them from one to three and I will prioritize them in that order, the item numbered one will definitely make it in. Items 2 and 3 will be added if time and AO3 permits. They must already be formatted so that I can just copy and paste them in. They must be for a fandom already in the tagset. This offer lasts until 23:59 Zulu 10 September.

Disambiguate your character nominations. Characters that are not disambiguated may be rejected. I will help you if you require assistance in disambiguating.

If your fandom is approved but you have disambiguated characters lingering it is not a cause for concern. I can only see first 30 nominations of accepted fandoms in alphabetical order by fandom. I want to give people that did not disambiguate as much time as possible to fix their nominations.

If you nominated a fandom, disambiguated your characters and it is lingering then there is one of three things:
1. There is something about the fandom I am thinking about.
2. Different nominators used different disambiguations and I haven’t standardized it yet.
3. Multiple individuals nominated it but not all the characters are disambiguated and I’m waiting on it.

Daredevil (TV)
The Marvel Netflix shows will be merged under The Defenders (Marvel TV).

Injustice: Gods Among Us

Harleen Quinzel (Injustice)
Did you mean the Prime Reality Harleen or the Insurgency Harleen?

A Nightmare on Elm Street - All Media Types
I’ve had a request to split this fandom. I will do so after nominations close. If there is a character you want in either the original movies or the reboot, nominate it here and I will put the appropriate characters in both fandoms.

Sleeping Beauty (1959)

Three Good Fairies (Disney)
This seems to be a strongly defined group of named characters with distinct personalities.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937)

Seven Dwarfs (Disney)
This seems to be a strongly defined group of named characters with distinct personalities.

Nominations are open!

Countdown until nominations end

You may nominate up to 6 fandoms with 6 characters each. Ships are not eligible. Vaguely defined groups of unnamed individuals are allowed. Original characters are allowed. We do not have a crossover section.

All character tags must be disambiguated. Character tags that are not disambiguated may be rejected.

EDIT: I created a new category called "Alternate Universe Works." You may nominate canon characters in the style of original works. All of them must be disambiguated with "(AU-Canon)".

Examples
Kate Bishop replaces Clint Barton (AU-MCU)
Slayer Drusilla (AU-BtVS)

These will only be enforced based on what is in the tags. So if you nominate "Mermaid Diana (AU-Wonder Woman)" the person can fulfill it based on the 70s Wonder Woman movie, the 70s Wonder Woman show, Wonder Woman comic, the Wonder Woman pilot, or the DCEU Wonder Woman movie.

We will be playing battleship next year for the community challenge.  Details will be posted next year.
