Announcment

[seeingcolormod]

You can't nominate / relationships to the tagset. However, when signups open, you can choose whether you want to offer or request gen, M/M, F/F, multi, and/or other on the signup form, and will be matched accordingly. For example, if your request for Star Trek: The Original Series is  'group: Uhura & Spock (TOS)' and only F/M, you will be matched with a person who has offered 'group: Uhura & Spock (TOS)' and F/M (they may also have offered other characters and categories). You will not be matched with a person who has offered 'group: Uhura & Spock (TOS)' but has only offered gen and/or F/F and/or multi and/or other.

Please also note, again, that I am not policing nominations; if you consider a character chromatic, they are in. I'm not policing nominations. If your nomination hasn't been approved yet, it's either because A) I can only see a limited number of nominations and you nomination hasn't appeared on my screen, B) I'm trying to figure out how to disambiguate the fandom (since I'm not familiar with many of the fandoms, and I don't want to accidentally make wrong associations, this is necessary even when the character names are unique), or C) I can't find proof of existence (as in, does the character exist in the canon you've nominated them for?) and am still looking. It is not because I disagree with your nominations. In the same vein, if your nomination has been rejected, it's because it is a duplicate (I'm disambiguate so AO3 can't automatically reject duplicates). I will not be rejecting nominations for any other reason without a 24 hour warning.

Can we argue nominations that are definitely 100% white and not part of any minority group in any version of the canon?

Please don't do it on the exchange comm. If you want to bring it up with me privately, on email or PM, that's fine, but don't do it on exchange comm. The general guideline, however, is that you offer and request characters you consider chromatic when sign ups open.
