The assignment deadline has now passed. Thank you to everyone who has got their assignment in, or contacted me about extensions - unless I have told you something different individually, I am going to treat all extensions as running until 1400 UTC on Monday 18th (countdown) - as far as I can tell, this gives everyone the weekend, whatever time zone they're in. (And, to be honest, it fits in well with my schedule on Monday.)

At this stage, there are six pinch hits, two that have been advertised already and four new ones arising in the last 24 hours. Please comment on this post with your AO3 name if you can help with any of these; comments are screened. The deadline for all of these pinch hits will be 2155 UTC on Wednesday 20th March, though I am open to negotiation on this; please get in touch via email (worldbuildingmod@gmx.com) or dreamwidth DM if you want to discuss an alternative deadline for any of these.

If you are the original assigned creator for any of these and you just caught out by a time zone misunderstanding or similar, just let me know and I can give you the assignment back. I'm afraid that if you did request an extension, then all record of it seems to have vanished from my emails.
