The Dirty Energy Source

Do you want to make a spreadsheet about spreadsheets?
Do you still need to figure out what two other fandoms you should request beside the only one you really want fic for?
Or are you trolling ALL the letter posts for placeholders, just so you can write those people some nice, dry coal?

We want to know all about it.

I can't remember the rules for sign-ups (last year was my first year), and I can't find a fucking link to them on _admin, so I'm stuck because I don't even know how many fandoms/characters I have to choose...

For God's sake, look at the profile/FAQ on AO3. It's not that fucking hard.

Requests

You are required to request stories in at least three fandoms. You can request up to six fandoms if you want.
For each fandom, you can request 0 to 4 (nominated) characters.
If you request 0 characters, your writer is allowed to write about any of the nominated characters they want, or about the fandom universe in general. You may not request 0 characters and then demand unnominated characters in your optional details.

Offers

You must offer to write in at least four fandoms.
In each fandom, you have to offer 2 to 8 nominated characters. You can also offer "Any" characters, but that really means any of the nominated characters, in any combination. If there are multiple fandoms where you're willing to write any of the nominated characters, you can make a bucket offer.

Ignore mean nonny. What I know for sure is you can request as few as three and as many as six. I'd have to look up again to see about offers. I think four is the minimum but don't quote me.
