Nominations open!

[shipoweenmod]

Nominations are now open! You can find the tag set here.

The tag set will close for nominations at 23:59 UTC on Tuesday 8 September. View the countdown here.

If you have any queries, please comment here or email shipoween@gmx.com.

Notes on nominations:

Each participant may nominate up to 6 fandoms with 1-10 relationships in each.


Fandoms:

Any fandom is eligible if it has already been released, or will have been released by the time signups open on Friday 11 September.

If the fandom has a canonical tag on AO3, please use it. (e.g. use "DC Extended Universe", not "DCEU".)

If your fandom does not have a canonical tag on AO3, that's fine - you can still nominate it.

See below for notes on franchises.

Do not nominate 'All Media Types' or '& Related Fandoms' fandoms!

Please be as specific as possible to avoid confusion.

This means nominating specific versions, e.g. 'Les Misérables - Victor Hugo' not 'Les Misérables - All Media Types'.

If your fandom's most fitting tag is an 'All Media Types' or '& Related Fandoms' fandom, please comment here to discuss.

Exceptions: 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) - All Media Types' and 'Assassin's Creed - All Media Types'. Please use the All Media Types tag in these cases.

Relationship Tags:

Relationships can be romantic/sexual (/ between character names) or gen/platonic (& between character names).

You don't have to use the canonical tag if there's a better way to do it!

Please nominate characters within ships alphabetically by last name (unless they have no last name, then use the first), e.g. Padmé Amidala/Anakin Skywalker rather than Anakin Skywalker/Padmé Amidala.

Disambiguate your relationship nomination if you like, but this is not required; if this step does not make sense to you: disregard it!

Mod reserves the right to amend nominations for clarity.

View the rules post here.

Crossovers:

Please nominate under 'Crossover Fandom' with the characters alphabetic by surname and a fandom name for each character in brackets, e.g. Carol Danvers (MCU)/Diana Prince (DCEU).

Original characters in non-original canons:

You may nominate Canon Character/Original Character, e.g. Steve Rogers & Original Male Character, Rey/Original Female Jedi, etc.

Bear in mind that this is not a mechanism by which to nominate your own pre-existing original character; please expect your writer/artist to create one!

Original Works:

Original ships must be nominated under 'Original Work' in the format 'Character Type/Character Type' e.g. 'Vampire/Vampire Hunter', 'Female Warrior/Male Dragon', etc.

You can be as specific you like about characters.

Please specify gender in the tag if you have a preference.

If no gender is specified in the tag, you will not be able to Do Not Want a specific gender in your signup - your gift creator will be explicitly permitted to choose.
