Fest mop-up for participants of the Big Bang and Holiday Exchange
Unless you made arrangements for an extension, Holiday Exchange gifts were due yesterday (the 16th). If you have not submitted your gift or arranged for an extension, please contact us ASAP. Once we sort everything out, if we find there are still participants unaccounted for, we're going to have to strike them from the fest and arrange for pinch hits.
And speaking of striking participants from fests, by our last tally there are still some big bang works outstanding, fics AND art. It's disappointing for team members when someone drops the ball in a collaborative fest like the Big Bang or the Reverse Bang. If your part of a Big Bang project was never posted to the LJ or DW community as was explicitly stated in the fest guidelines, expect to get an unhappy e-mail from the mods. Contacting us first and explaining why your part of a project is missing is a very good idea if you don't wish to be put on probationary status for future fests.
We also have an Ao3 problem. The difference between a tag and a collection appears to be confusing. If your Big Bang work appears under this tag or this tag but not the actual collection, we need you to add it to the collection, which exists so that all Big Bang works can be found in one nice, neat location.
ADDING A PREVIOUSLY POSTED WORK TO A COLLECTION:
Log in to Ao3 and go to your dash.
Click the "edit" button of the work you wish to add.
Scroll down to the "associations" section.
Find the text entry box "Post to Collections / Challenges"
Type "2013 captain" and the list will auto-fill. The collection you want should be at the very top. Select it.
Scroll to the bottom and hit "post without preview".
I hate to put a damper on the fest fun, but we're evaluating how we want to handle next year's fests, and one of the problems that needs to be addressed is that we're spending too much time running down participants who don't follow directions.
