Just under half an hour left to sign up

[worldbuildingmod]

If you are right up against the wire, tell me your AO3 username (either by screened comment here, or email to worldbuildingmod@gmx.com) and I'll try to hold sign ups open until I see it appear. (NB not indefinitely!)

Sign ups now closed

[worldbuildingmod]

There are a number of things I want to double check, both before and after running matching, so don't expect assignments immediately. (NB At this stage, though, I am already confident that they are on course to appear on or before the 29th as per the schedule.)

The next time I post, it will either be to announce that assignments are out or to let participants I need to contact know that they need to check their email.

Matching update

[worldbuildingmod]

There is one participant with no possible matches to their offers; if your AO3 username starts with a d, please check the email associated with your AO3 account, including possibly your spam folder. (If you don't have an email from me, no action is required from you at this stage.)

Assignments out!

[worldbuildingmod]

• Your assignment should now be available to you via AO3 and in the inbox of your AO3-associated email account.
  
• If there is a major problem with your assignment (i.e. it doesn't match what you offered in any way) then please do let me know ASAP.
  
• Initial pinch hits will follow in the next few hours. They will be posted here on the comm. (ETA: Now here.)
  
• Please be patient with any locked/placeholder letters you encounter at this stage, as assignments are out quite a bit earlier than the advertised "by" date.
  
• A Google Doc of all requests is available here (should be at least slightly easier to search than the AO3 "Requests Summary" page).
  
• All assignments are due at 1655 UTC, Friday 20th March. As best as I can tell, some locations have daylight savings changes before this date, and others after, so this may or may not have the same relation to your local time as the time sign ups closed today. This countdown is the most reliable guide to how long you have.

Initial pinch hits

[worldbuildingmod]

There are seven initial pinch hits. To claim one, please comment here (comments are screened), clearly indicating your AO3 name and the pinch hit you would like to take. Comments will not be replied to; if you don't receive an AO3 assignment for your desired pinch hit within ~24 hours and you see it marked claimed, you can assume that it has gone to someone else.
