justmarriedexchangeThis is the FAQ for Just Married 2019. If you have questions, please comment on this post and we will respond as soon as possible. Anonymous commenting is enabled.
Nominations
The tag set is located here.
Nominations will run May 3-13. You may nominate up to 7 fandoms, 7 relationships per fandom, and 10 freeform tags.
Mods will approve nominations throughout the time range. Once your nominations have been approved, you will no longer be able to edit them. Clarification questions will be posted to this community. The mods may reject nominations if clarification questions are not answered, or may edit nominations for formatting reasons.
For relationship tags, please nominate in the format ‘Character A/Character B’ with the / symbol between the character names. You may nominate more than two characters in a relationship.
Freeform tags are for trope or situation matching. Examples include: arranged marriage, marriage of convenience, accidentally married, sedoretu, etc. Feel free to get creative but please aim for clarity so someone unfamiliar with your request would understand your meaning. For example, “soulbond marriage” is ambiguous, “marriage with forced soulbonding” is clearer.
Please nominate only marriage tropes and situations! Freeforms unrelated to marriage will be rejected.
Original Works are welcome. Please nominate under the Original Works fandom tag. If you have specific genders in mind, include those in your nomination. Example: “Female Soldier/Male Assassin.”
Crossovers are welcome. Please nominate crossover relationships under the Crossover Fandom tag. List the character name followed by their canon. Example: “Tony Stark (MCU)/Bruce Wayne (DCU).” Crossover nominations that do not follow this format may be rejected.
Requests
You must request a minimum of 3 unique fandoms (maximum 10), 1-10 relationships per fandom (or “any”), and 1-20 freeform tags (or “any”). You may double-request fandoms, but at least 3 requests must be unique. You may request fanart, fanfiction, podfic, or a combination of all three media types.
Please feel free either in the optional details or in a linked (unlocked!) letter to give your writer more information about things you would like to read. These may include general likes or specific prompts. These details are optional for your writer.
Do Not Wants (DNWs) are things you do not want to see in the fic you receive. Please include them in the optional details field of your AO3 sign-up, clearly labelled as DNWs. Your author is required to avoid DNWs written in your AO3 sign-up.
Please remember when requesting that matching is OR. This means that you may be matched on any 1 of your requested fandoms, and any 1 relationship and 1 freeform tag requested in that fandom, in any 1 of the media types (fanart, fanfic, or podfic) you requested for that fandom.
Offers
You must offer a minimum of 4 unique fandoms (max 10), 1-10 relationships per fandom (or “any”), and 1-20 freeform tags (or “any”). You may double-offer fandoms, but at least 4 requests must be unique. You may offer fanart, fanfiction, podfic, or a combination of all three.
Please remember when offering that matching is OR. This means that you may be matched to any 1 of your offered fandoms, and any 1 relationship and 1 freeform tag offered in that fandom, in any 1 of your offered media types (fanart, fanfic, or podfic) for that fandom.
Sign Ups, Assignments, and Requirements
Sign ups will run May 15-26. Assignments will be sent out by May 29. Stories are due by July 28.
Participants must create a complete story of at least 1500 words, or fanart with a minimum requirement of clean lineart on unlined paper, fulfilling one of their recipient’s requests. In return, they will receive a complete story of at least 1500 words or fanart fulfilling one of their requests. Podfic should be a complete recording of 1500 words or 10 minutes in length. Gifts must be in one of a recipient’s requested fandoms, include one of their requested pairings, and feature one of their requested freeform tags. You do not need to write, draw, or podfic for the fandom, relationship or freeform you matched on.
When you receive your assignment email, please contact mods quickly if the assignment doesn’t match any of your offers.
Gifts may NOT feature Do Not Wants explicitly stated in a recipient’s AO3 sign-up. If you have questions about your recipient’s DNWs, please contact the mods.
Creators are expected to remain anonymous until reveals. If you have questions for your recipient, please contact the mods. We will do our best to disguise any fandom-specific questions and forward them to your recipient (who may not respond - we can discuss this with you if that is the case). If you are fulfilling a podfic request, your AO3 post will remain anonymous with the rest of the collection until reveals. Since voices are inherently identifiable, you do not need to upload a version of your podfic without an intro.
Depending on how sign ups fall and how the matching algorithm runs, the mods may need to double assign writers to recipients. There may also be initial pinch hits for recipients whose requests did not have matching offers. Please see below for pinch hit details.
Defaulting
If you realize you need to default, please do so as early as possible. This will give pinch hitters more time to work. If you default before the deadline on July 28 (11:59 pm UTC), you are not required to finish a gift for your recipient. If you default and then are defaulted on, you are not guaranteed a gift and you will not be sent out to pinch hit.
If you default after the default deadline, you must create a gift fulfilling a request for the current round of the exchange before you will be allowed to participate in subsequent rounds.
Pinch Hits
Pinch hits will be posted to this community. To claim a pinch hit, comment on the post or e-mail the mods with your AO3 name and the number of the pinch hit. If you are the first person, the mods will respond to let you know that you have the pinch hit. Claimed pinch hits will be crossed through.
Treats
“Extra” gifts, or treats, are welcome! You do not need to be signed up to post treats. To post a treat, visit the collection dashboard page, click “Post to Collection,” and fill out the form. Make sure to double-check the spelling of your recipient’s AO3 username.
Reveals
Works will be revealed August 4. Authors will be revealed August 11.

Date: 2019-05-01 01:04 pm (UTC)i'm wondering how reveals will work for podfics, where the name of the creator is usually in the intro and on the cover art.
Do we do twp versions, one anonymous and the other not, and then redo the ao3 post? Do we skip the anonymity thing?
(Thanks for modding this, btw <3)

Date: 2019-05-04 08:50 am (UTC)Say if one of my fandoms with three relationships is approved, I can neither edit those nor add a fourth relationship later?
But I can add another fandom later?
Will I be able to add more freeforms later if freeforms have been already approved?
Thanks in advance.

Date: 2019-05-04 08:42 pm (UTC)Once your fandom with three ships is approved, you should still be able to add a fourth ship under the same fandom.
Yes, you can still add another fandom later.
Yes, if your freeforms ahve been approved you can still add more later (provided you still have freeform nomination slots).

Date: 2019-05-11 11:05 pm (UTC)(I also came here to request if it was possible to increase the number of freeforms from 10 to 20 for both requests and offers. I was checking the tagset right a moment ago, there are so many wonderful marriage scenarios and having to choose only 10 would be close to impossible, lol.)
