Nominations open in two days  
This is the 2013 post! Do not comment here anymore!

Comment here or at livejournal with what you plan to nominate. Clarify categories with the mod. Advertise empty slots. Maximise your nominations.

For the record, comics will be nominated by universe (for example Marvel 616, Marvel Adventures, Marvel Cinematic Universe). All of Doctor Who TV will be together and Big Finish will be on its own. Not being overburdened by female characters, Tolkien's Middle-Earth works will be together.

I'm not super familiar with Non-western fandoms and RPF fandoms, so guidance on how to group them would be welcome.

ETA: Rules post here, but to sum up: You may nominate up to five fandoms, and you may nominate up to five pairings in each fandom.

At the end of nominations, fandoms that do not have at least two pairings in them will be eliminated, as offers and requests on sign ups must have at least two pairings, and fandoms with one or no pairings would be a waste of everyone's time. Please consider whether or not you can request/offer more than one pairing before nominating a fandom.

ETA 2: After due consideration, we're allowing each participant to request ONE fandom with a single pairing. Therefore, fandoms with single pairings won't be deleted at the end of nominations. Fandoms with no pairings still will.

*thinks*

Have yet to pick specific fandoms, but I am here to represent the anime / manga and video game crowd, so do not be afraid to ask me any questions about such. :-)

Awesome. I may hit you up with questions as the nomination period gets underway, and it becomes clear I don't know what's going on with all the versions of FMA.

I can help some with anime/manga and video games as well. :)

(As well as, you know, anything else you're not 100% certain about since there are good odds that I'll at least be familiar with it.)

That's great!

I've actually got an anime-knowledable comod know, but we'll hit you up for help if we're both stumped.

I know in the past FMA has been in femslash as a single fandom, and I just made sure to include pairings that could apply to either version. . .

Actually, I have one. I'm trying to get the word out on the fest, but not sure where to reach out to yuri fans. Any thoughts?

Aside from [community profile] fandomcalendar (always a good choice), I suggest messaging my friends [personal profile] bonnefois and [personal profile] sirvalkyrie (if you haven't already; you very well may have, heh). Both of them are heavily involved in running (and adverting) most of the femslash / yuri comms I've stumbled across. (They pointed me here, in fact.)

Thanks, I'll look into those. I've been in touch with a couple femslash mods, and femslash today, but hadn't hit up everyone yet. Am rationing my LJ PMs :D

It didn't occur to me until now, but I'll post about it on rarewomen.

Oh, awesome, thanks. I didn't think of asking other fests.

It probably has a lot of overlap, but I will post on shipswap.
