2015-16: Info post

Welcome to Chocolate Box, a low pressure, low commitment multifandom gift exchange run on A03. For 2015-2016 the AO3 community can be found here.

The schedule for this year is:
Nominations: 20 - 29 December
Signups: 1-7 January
Assignments go out: by 10 January
Posting deadline: 7 February
Story reveal: 14 February
Author reveal: 21 February

If anyone is art-inclined and can make a banner, please email me at chocolateboxmod[at]gmail so we can discuss a banner for advertising. Otherwise, I look forward to opening nominations on the 20th!

Thank you for this! Looks like it may be quite a lot of fun.

Just one note: on the AO3 schedule, it says the sign-up opens on December 20 and closes on December 29, instead of that being the nominations as you've listed here. I assume this is correct here?

Would you mind if I linked your exchange from Trick or Treat?

Hi! Will you be releasing the requests summary fairly soon after assignments go out, or should treaters focus on the Dear Writer letters?

I've never modded anything on AO3, I didn't realize that was an option! Thanks for the info :)

I'm a different anon and I don't know if I like that idea. Just a data point.

Quick question, what's the process for treats?

Great, thank you!

Hi there, I was just wondering if pinch hits will be posted here at the comm or if there's any kind of email list or whatever we'll need to join?

(Anonymous) 2016-01-07 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Cool, thank you for the fast reply!

Hi! I wanted to sign up, but missed the window -- would I still be allowed to write Treats? I read the FAQs, so I know how to post, but I don't know that I'd be allowed to join in so late? Thank you!

Yay! *\o/* Am I allowed to start at any time, or is there a period after the noted submission date during which Treats can be written and posted?
