#mod kal

And on that note, I feel like this event has run its course and unless people want it to continue, this feels like a fitting year to end on.

So

Thank you so much to everyone who has participated over the years, I am so honored to have been the mod, as are all the past mods. ❤️

TIMELINE:

Signups open: 14th July

Signups close: 21st July

Assignments sent out: 22nd July

Check in: 22nd August

Posting period: 20th-24th September

Extension period ends: 1st October

Emergency Pinch Hit Period Ends (DISCORD ONLY): 11th October

RULES FOR PARTICIPATING: 

Must tag your recipient in the eventual post

Must tag this blog in your post so we can keep track of gifts

DM a mod ASAP if you don’t think you’ll get your gift out on time or at all, or you want to withdraw

Must Check in during the check-in period to ensure gifts are on time

Must do your best to produce a gift that meets the minimum requirements within the time of the event.

Because of Tumblr, Ao3 and Discord TOS, you must be 13 or older to participate.

You do not have to join the discord, but if you want to then here is the link: https://discord.gg/kYdzSuGdK6

RULES FOR CREATING: 

Your gift doesn’t have to contain only requested characters, but it does have to be centered on at least one requested character. 

No NSFW content is permitted for either requesting or creating as most of the characters are canonically children

Any shipping must be kept to PG-13 levels or below

Respect your giftee's DNW. Any gift found to be in violation of a reasonable DNW is grounds for a ban from future iterations of the exchange.

Dark or Violent themes must be tagged appropriately

No AI-created content.

Prepare a gift in good faith, attempting to make something your recipient will like. Mods reserve the right to ban people for being an asshole.

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS: 

Art (1 drawing, created to a standard you would normally post as “finished”)

Writing (1k+ words)

Playlist (2 hour-long playlist)

MISC:

Tag this blog as well, so we can reblog you! 

You will not necessarily be matched with someone who matches your ‘willing to create about’ exactly. The goal is to have multiple matches, but in cases of more obscure requests you might be matched with someone who only has one commonality between your ‘willing to create’ and their wish list. In that case at least you know what to make your gift around pretty quickly.

Please send asks if you need information. If it is something you do not feel comfortable sending in an ask, you can message the head mod at @demitimelord42 or email us at [email protected]

Because we have gotten multiple asks about it, unless you are a moderator of the other PJO exchange happening around the same time, please refrain from messaging us about it. We are aware it exists, we are alright with people not paying as much attention to this exchange because of the other, and if one of the moderators of this blog is participating in the other exchange, that is perfectly fine! People can participate in multiple exchanges at the same time, that is their own choice

FAQ (This will continue being updated as we receive questions):

"Can we write for the Heroes of Olympus, Magnus Chase, or Kane Chronicles books?" - Yes! This exchange is for all Rick Riordan books with a link to the Percy Jackson series in some way.

"Will there be an AO3 collection to add our gifts to?" - There is now! At: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/PJO_Equinox_Solstice_Exchange

If you have any issues regarding posting your fics here, please let head mod @demitimelord42 know.

"Can we make multiple gifts for our recipient?" - Of course! Just make sure that at least one gift fulfills the requirements of its format. (Writing 1k words, Art to your finished standard, 2 hour Playlist)
