it doesnt have to match

….goes into the next round! You know the drill!

Signups are now open for the exchange until mid October - you can find this year’s collection and rules here!

This sounds cool! What is it and what do I have to do?

The TMFU Gift Exchange is exactly what it sounds like. You sign up right here by filling out the request and offer forms. After the sign-up closes, your offer will be matched with someone else’s requests and your requests with someone else’s offer anonymously (not necessarily the same participant). Once the matching is done, this gift exchange appears then under Assignments on your AO3 account with your assigned requests. From those requests you choose a prompt and write a fic for it with at least 1000 words in English or create fanart for it. Create a gift, get a gift!

If you are already familiar with exchanges either on AO3 or other sites, nothing about this should be too unusual, but if you’re a fan of the film who would like to participate but is new to the concept of exchanges and has questions or concerns, please check out the FAQ of the collection for more info!

Schedule:

Sign-ups open: October 12th (Sunday) Sign-ups close: October 26th (Sunday) Check-in: November 23rd (Sunday) Deadline: December 18th (Thursday) Works Revealed: December 25th (Thursday) Creators Revealed: January 1st (Thursday)

Who do I talk to if I have questions?

If it’s not answered already in the FAQ of the collection, please feel free to comment directly on this post or send a message to me @deducitetemporacarmen with any questions or concerns. The collection email is [email protected] (also me lol).

Spread The Word! :D
