Signups Are Open!

Due to AO3 downtime slightly late but open. You can now sign up here!
Signups will remain open until 20:00 UTC on Sunday, 13 July. View the countdown here.

- Signup form
- Tagset If your tag isn't here, please send me an email at tentaclemod@gmail.com with the fandom and relationship you are missing, and a link to the pairing on ao3 with the eligibility filters applied.
- Requests summary
- Signup summary
- Rules Post

You can request 3-10 fandoms and offer 4-10 fandoms with 1-20 ships and 1-3 media (fic and/or art and/or podfic) in each.

You are only guaranteed to match on one fandom/ship/medium.

You can only request fandoms and relationships that have been nominated and appear in the tagset.

You can request a fandom more than once (if you want to request more than 20 ships, or you want to request a particular medium for some ships and not others). However, you must still request at least 3 unique fandoms.

You cannot offer a fandom more than once.

Only reasonable Do Not Wants (DNWs) listed in your signup will be enforced.

Do not list "unrequested kinks" as a DNW as this frequently causes confusion. Please be specific to avoid disappointment.

Do not indicate that you prefer one of your requests over the others; do not rank requests in order of preference. Your gift creator is only guaranteed to know one of your fandoms.

If you request or offer Original Work: matching does not differentiate between this and other fandoms; it is not to be considered a "backup" and you might match on it even if your other fandoms have requests/offers.

Any questions, feel free to comment here or email me at tentaclemod@gmail.com.

Community Recs Post!

Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool fanvids/fancrafts/podfics/fics/fanart/other kinds of fanworks have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

BTW, AI fanworks are not eligible for reccing at recthething. If you aware that a fanwork is AI-generated, please do not rec it here.
