Nominations open!

[koraki]

Nominations are now open for Multifandom Doodle! 

Eligibility

• All fandoms, characters, and ships are eligible for this exchange.
• Original Works and RPF are eligible for this exchange.
  • Mods reserve the right to reject nominations deemed to be in bad taste (e.g. Nazi RPF). 

How to Nominate

• Each participant can nominate up to 10 fandoms, with up to 20 characters/ships in each fandom. 
• Relationships between two or more characters are still nominated as individual "characters." To nominate a relationship, nominate them by putting "group: " before their names, in the following format:
  • group: Character A/Character B or group: Character A & Character B or group: Character A/Character B & Character C, etc.
• Romantic and/or sexual relationships are denoted by the / sign between the characters' names, and platonic and/or familial relationships are denoted by the & sign between the characters' names.
• You may nominate settings and/or objects as individual "characters" or as part of relationships (e.g. "Place: Howl's Castle", "group: Fawkes & the Room of Requirement", "group: Dean Winchester/The Impala"). 
  • Please nominate individual places/settings with "Place:" or "Setting:" in front of them, to disambiguate them from freeforms (e.g. "Place: Howl's Castle", "Setting: the Hundred-Acre Wood").
• Please nominate crossover relationships under the fandom "Crossover Fandom." When nominating them, please use the format "group: Character A (Fandom 1)/Character B (Fandom 2)."
• Please nominate original characters and relationships under the fandom "Original Work." Descriptive character names are recommended. "Mermaid/Pirate" is pretty vague, while "Curvy Blue-haired Tattoo Artist Mermaid/Roguish Tattooed Butch Pirate" gives a better idea of what visuals and dynamics someone might be looking to request or draw. 
  • If you have a gender preference for an original ship (e.g. you want "Elf Paladin/Orc Druid" but only if they're both female), you must nominate the ship with genders included in the names (e.g. "Female Elf Paladin/Female Orc Druid"). You won't be allowed to use likes or DNWs to enforce a gender preference for an original ship where the nominated tag is gender neutral. 

Please note that because of the number of character nominations allowed per fandom, and in the interest of avoiding ambiguity, the tagset will not accept "Any [Category]" character/ship nominations for the inaugural round of this exchange. 

If there are any questions, or nomination clarifications you would like to provide, please comment below.

Hi, a question: if I want to nominate a group of a specific character and anyone, or anyone of a certain gender, can I enter it as "group: Character XY/any", or "group: Character XY & any female character"?

Hello!

Same as the answer to the question about Pokemon, Batman villains, etc. in the FAQ post: Because of the number of character nominations allowed per fandom, and in the interest of avoiding ambiguity, we will not accept "Any (Category)" character/ship nominations for the inaugural round of this exchange.

With that being said, please mention this in the feedback post at the end of the exchange! It seems like being able to nominate "Any" may be of general interest and if so we can implement it in the future.

Alright, will do, thanks!
