caseficexchange | 4 weeks until assignments are due! (Reply)

Time sure does fly when you're having fun! We have four weeks until assignments are due! [ In your timezone + Countdown ]

Please email gumshoeagency@gmail.com with your AO3 username and your recipient's AO3 username for any questions.

As we enter the deadline phase of our exchange, I wanted to post a few reminders:

Extensions

If you need an extension, you have until Friday 1 May 11:59pm Eastern to request it. The deadline for assignments with extensions is Friday 15 May. No further extension dates will be given. Extenuating circumstances will be treated on a case-by-case basis.

Please provide your AO3 username and the AO3 username of your recipient when requesting an extension.

If you default on your extension, you will be required to complete a make-up gift to participate in the next round. (These are due before the next round's sign-ups.)

Guaranteed gifts

Participants who choose to sign up with less than 3 unique fandoms and who are pinch hits have until Friday 15 May to add additional fandoms to their request. I will not be updating any requests after this date. This is so I can manage pinch hits in the post-deadline phase of the exchange.

These fandoms need to be unique and not subfandoms to qualify, i.e., if your request is Doctor Who 2005, Doctor Who 1963 and WandaVision, you do not meet the minimum unique fandom requirements.

Post-deadline pinch hits will be posted after Friday 1 May, so you will have time to decide whether you want to be guaranteed a gift. If you do not complete your assignment, I will not update your request to meet the minimum of 3 unique fandoms and you will not be a pinch hit.

This is a new aspect of the exchange that I'm trialling.

Defaults

If you cannot complete your assignment, please default before Friday 1 May. I will be defaulting anyone who is a no-show and you may be banned from participating in the next round.
