Admin Post: Nominations Are Closed

[mm_rares_mods]

Nominations are officially closed over at the tag set. We have a couple of days here for any necessary cleanup before signups open this weekend. (Based on the state of the tag set, there's a chance we'll open things up on Saturday instead of Sunday to give an extra day for people to sign up).

This year we have 1493 pairings nominated in 406 fandoms vs. 1196 pairings in 351 fandoms last year. Always exciting to see this thing grow from year to year!

Also, by request, we've opened up anon commenting in this space to allow those who are participating in the exchange but do not have Dreamwidth accounts to chime in as they see fit. We'll revisit if that leads to any problems.

(Note: Somewhere in the last half hour or so while cleaning up a couple of duplicate tags, a humongous batch of warning tags showed up in the tag set. I've no idea how they got there, and the Archive won't allow me to delete them. I've contacted Support, but we'll probably proceed this weekend regardless of the status since warning tags aren't a part of the signup or matching process. I just wanted to let you know we're aware of it and following up.)

Some crossover ships wound up in the Rick and Morty section. "The Author | Original Stanford Pines/Rick Sanchez (Rick and Morty) (Rick and Morty)" (eep!) and "Grunkle Stan | Stanley "Stanford" Pines/Rick Sanchez (Rick and Morty)" are both crossovers with Gravity Falls.

This should be fixed now. Thanks for pointing it out!

I'm sorry if this question has been answered before, but are requests going to be visible during signups? I have a lot of rare ships I'd only offer if I can see the requests for them, so it'd be great imo if requests could be public.

We will be making them visible this year, yes.

Oberyn Martell/Willas Tyrell is in the A Song of Ice and Fire tagset twice.

Fixed. Thanks for catching that.

Are the tags currently in individual movies going to be consolidated under MCU? Like Ant-Man and Captain America. Right now some Cap tags are under MCU and some are in their own space.

I don't care either way. Just trying to plan my offers. I'm excited! :D

They've been combined. In most cases, we leave tags where they fall, but it just didn't make sense to have a couple of random tags separated especially as they involve the same characters in the same universe.

A minor thing - 'Celegorm | Turcafinwë' under The Silmarillion is misspelled 'Celegorn | Turkafinwë' in one istance.

Corrected. Thanks for catching that.
