ATLA Lunar New Year Exchange: Rules Draft

[eruthros]

We want more of your feedback about the proposed gift exchange! We took the results of the poll about an avatar gift exchange and comments and wrote a set of preliminary rules. This is just a first draft, so please let us know if there are any changes you think we should make or if there are places where the rules don't make sense. (There are a couple of places here where we have missing information, like email addresses or URLs; we'll fix that by the final draft.)

The Rules:

1. ( The basics )

2. ( The schedule )

3. ( How matching will work )

4. ( Request language )

4a. ( If you need more information about your assigned person/their requests )

5. ( Types of fanworks )

5a. ( Crafts and non-digital artwork )

6. ( Minimum fanwork size )

7. ( Posting )

8. ( Dropping out )

9. ( Pinch hits )

10. ( Treats )

11. ( I don't want to sign up; what can I do? )

We also have a draft sign-up form; signups won't open for another few days, but if you'd like to poke at the form or submit a test signup and give us feedback, please do! (We'll be clearing all the test responses before we open signups, though, so remember that this is only a test version -- if you want to sign up for real, you'll have to fill out the form again later this week or at the beginning of next week.)

We populated the lists of characters, ships, and genres directly from the white_lotus tag list, which is not a complete list of possible characters/ships/genres -- please let us know about things we left out! If we're still missing things on sign-up day, you can list as many things as you want under "other."
