[Dreaming of Sunshine Exchange] General Rules & Info

Navigation: Rules | AO3 Collection | Tagset | Nomination guidelines | FAQ

This September marks the 10th anniversary of Dreaming of Sunshine! To celebrate, we are running an exchange. We welcome writers, artists and podficcers to join us in this propitious event!

This round of the exchange is run by Leaf (Tavina), Lionhead Bookends and drowsyivy.

Exchanges are events where participants give and receive fanworks as gifts! This is an exchange for recursive fic (fic of fic!) about the Naruto fanfiction Dreaming of Sunshine by Silver Queen, which is a +700k SI OC fic that started in 2011. You can also learn more about the DoS recursive fandom on Fanlore. Regular Naruto fanfiction that isn't based off of Dreaming of Sunshine is not allowed.

Instructions

Everyone can nominate 5 fandoms with 7 relationships each. You can only match on tags that have been nominated and accepted into the tagset, so nominate anything you want to receive or offer.

To nominate:

You read the Nomination Guidelines (this post!) and make sure you understand them — don't be afraid to ask me or any of the other co-mods questions if you don't!

You go to the tagset and make sure you're logged in to your AO3 account.

You click the nominate button and fill in the nomination page with tags you want to request.

When I have time, I approve them... assuming you filled it out correctly/assuming that I understand your nomination.

If you did it wrong or I'm confused, I'll ask you about it in a nominations clarification post on this Dreamwidth community. You just have to comment on the post or email me to clear things up!

I can't see who's nominated what so I can't just ask you directly, you have to pay attention!

Lingering incorrect nominations may be rejected, but I will always be willing to add the correct versions in for you if you provide correctly formatted tags later on.

Please Keep In Mind....

The tagset system on AO3 is kind of janky, so I can't see who's nominated what and I can't see all unapproved tags at the same time. We'll need to communicate via Dreamwidth if I have questions about your tags, so keep an eye out!

Here's a link to the nominations section of the FAQ. Please reply below with any additional questions. Anonymous commenting is on, so you don't need an account to do so.
