Signups have closed! However, we have run into a hurdle: matching was not able to be completed, because the algorithm that does the matching has been stuck at the "Assignments Generating" stage for almost ten hours.

What this means is that we were able to run matching once and so know that there is one person who is completely unmatchable, and a significant number of initial pinch hits. We ran the matching algorthim a second time to see if we could reduce the number of initial pinch hits, and the algorithm was able to complete the first half of matching (that is, working out how many matches each person has), but not generating assignments.

We have a support request in with AO3 and we'll keep you all updated how that goes.

In the meantime, please take a look at the requests. If you want to add relationships or fandoms to increase your matchability, please send us an email with your AO3 name to chocolateboxmod@gmail.com and we'll add those in for you.

EDIT: We have managed to run matching! We are now contacting non-matchables.

(Not A Mod) I think your assignment should get emailed to the address linked to your AO3 account, through AO3's systems because the challenge is hosted in AO3's challenges section. So as long as that's an email you have access to you should be good.

Thanks for the tip! Just checked and nothing yet but I will stay on my toes and also make sure I check the spam filter as well.

You can also check at https://archiveofourown.org/users/[YourUsernameHere]/assignments . And the schedule does say assignments go out by Jan 10, so they could come earlier but I don't think you need to worry until Jan 11. Also there'll probably be a post on this comm when assignments are sent out.
