My unicorn got run over by a tractor

Sometimes you miss nominations and don't think about asking for your Babu Frik/Jacen Solo tag before the deadline. Sometimes you can't fit all the requests you want into your sign-up. Sometimes you see something you wanted after sign-ups have closed. Sometimes you want to leave an anonymous request for a pairing you have no intention of admitting you ship. Sometimes you want a crossover request that would be outside the bounds of the regular exchange nominations but you know in your heart that Vader/Dobby is the greatest ship of all time and space. Sometimes you pinch hit and would like to throw your hat in the ring to ask for the story of Grogu and Anakin's excellent adventures.

This post is for those extra requests, one request per comment, no limit on the number of comments you leave. You can provide as much or as little detail as you want; if you would like your treat to be gifted to you, you should include your AO3 name. Fills to the grab bag can be posted to the regular collection, but should be labeled in the tags or the notes that the fill is for a grab bag request. In cases where the requester has chosen to remain anonymous, these can be gifted to the mod account, or they can be posted without a recipient.

You do not have to have signed up for the exchange to leave a grab bag request.

Sign Up Form

Nominations are closed but we can still manually add last minute tags to the tag set if you reply to this post with the tags in the requested format.

Nominations questions:

"Kad Ha'rangir/Mand'alor of Choice" - What are you trying to nominate?


Countdown to end of signups

Now is a great time to look through the Sign Up Summary or the Automagic App to browse requests to offer. You must have someone you are able to create for. We will attempt to contact anyone who is unmatchable (no possible recipient) but if you ensure you have offered things other people are requesting, this will be a much easier process for everyone.

If you have specific matching needs, you can email the mods at maythe4thmod@gmail.com.

A few reminders:

- We can only enforce Do Not Wants in your AO3 signup, not DNWs which solely appear in your letter. Do Not Wants are a brief (or not) list of things you do not want to appear in your gift and should be labelled clearly. A set of prompts and a list of things you would like in your gift are both optional but can be helpful to your creator especially as this is what will be sent to them for their assignment. As a reminder, the prompts you give are optional for your creator to fill. Giving your creator several ideas to work with is more likely to result in a gift you're happy with than if you only give one prompt.

- Make sure your letter is visible and unlocked if you have one. Also remember that sometimes letters hosted on an external site may not be available to everyone. All important information should be in your AO3 signup.

- Do not use your Do Not Wants as "railroading" your writer or artist (ex: "Do Not Want anything except E-rated AU where Anakin is a catboy").

- Please remember to state if you are open to treats and have treating enabled on your AO3 profile. You can check here: https://archiveofourown.org/users/YOURNAMEHERE/preferences in the Collections, Challenges, and Gifts section. Make sure you have checked the toggle for "Allow anyone to gift me works" if you are open to receiving treats.
