Nominations are live!

[chocolateboxmod]

Nominations are now open for this year's exchange and will remain open until 11:59pm EST on 29 December 2015! The tag set is here.

A reminder, this is a relationship based exchange! This means that you are matching on both medium source (aka fic or art) and the type of story you want.

• If you want shipfic, nominate your relationship as Character A/Character B.
• If you want genfic, nominate the relationship as Character A&Character B.

There are no restrictions on what you can nominate. The only restrictions are that you can nominate up to 5 fandoms and up to 20 relationships.

Any issues, such as possible duplication of fandoms, I'll post them here, so please keep an eye out for them.

Otherwise I look forward to seeing what you nominate!

I'm not sure what you mean by "alternate universes" of each other. Do you mean the Fate/Stay Night VN versus the anime, or Fate/Stay Night versus Fate/Extra, for example?

The Fate/Stay Night VN has three "routes" which have different character focuses and endings (The "Fate" route without a subtitle, Unlimited Blade Works, and Heaven's Feel). All involve more or less the same cast and just have different people making different decisions that impact that plot significantly enough that they're different stories. This seems to be what, for fic exchanges, gets labeled under "Fate/Stay Night and Related Fandoms."

While things like Fate/Zero and Fate/Extra and Fate/Strange Fake all could be under that umbrella category, none of them (to my knowledge, I'm most-familiar with Zero but I think I'm speaking correctly) involve the same core cast. Zero is a prequel, so there are small appearances from much of the main cast of FSN as children, but only a couple of the main players are the same and they have different roles/stories in those things.

I am going to toss this issue up onto a new post for discussion. My initial view is that from what you're saying here it should be Fate/Stay Night and Related Fandoms; Fate/Zero; Fate/Extra; and Fate/Strange Fake, but I'm happy to open it up to discussion by the participants as a whole.
