*cue the Jaws music*

Reminder: the Default Deadline for Last Minute Sub 2018 is September 15, 11:59pm PDT. (What time is that for me?)

Sometimes, despite the best laid plans, an exchange fic just isn’t gonna get written and that’s okay. Just please let us know if you have to default by September 15th so there’s enough time to arrange for a pinch hitter. If you do need to default, you can do so by navigating to your Assignments page on AO3, or you can email the mods directly at lastminutesubmods@gmail.com.

The default deadline also means there are three weeks until assignments are due. Assignments are due by October 6th at 11:59 PM PST. (What time is that for me?)

As always, if you have questions, need a beta, etc. don’t hesitate to contact the mods. :)

Thank you to everyone who signed up! We’re really excited to get underway. :)

If you missed out on signing up but still want to participate as a beta or pinch hitter, we’re happy to have you! The same goes for participants who are also interested in beta reading and pinch hitting. You can sign up for the Beta Reader List here and the Pinch Hitter List here. There’s no commitment to signing up for either of these lists.

What happens next?

We’ll begin the matching process through AO3. We’ve blocked off a couple days for matching and to get in touch with any participants that may be unmatchable as writers.

Assignments will be generated by AO3 and sent out no later than August 25th. Keep an eye on the email associated with your AO3 account for your assignment!

Matching has successfully run its course and assignments have been generated! We’ll be sending them out to you very shortly. :)

Your assignment will be sent to the email address associated with your AO3 account. It will also show up under “Assignments” on your AO3 profile. If for some reason you don’t receive the email and don’t see it on your Assignments page, please email the mods (lastminutesubmods@gmail.com) and we will troubleshoot it with you.

You can still sign up to be on the Beta Reader List or the Pinch Hitters List, whether or not you’re a participant!

If you do need to default on your assignment, we ask that you please do so by the default deadline of September 23rd so that we have adequate time to assign a pinch hitter to your recipient.

Assignments are due on October 14th at 11:59 PM PST (What time is that for me?)

We have a tutorial on how to post to the collection for both assignments and treats up here!

And finally: You’re always welcome to write or draw more works beyond your assignment! If something in the requests summary really catches your eye and you want to gift it to the requester, by all means, feel free! These extra gifts are referred to as “treats” in exchanges. You don’t have to be signed up for the exchange to write a treat – anyone and everyone is welcome to jump in if they want to.

And that about wraps it up! Good luck, and please give us a shout if you need anything.

We’ll be running matching through AO3. We’ve blocked off a couple days for matching to run just in case it takes that long, though we don’t expect it to.

Assignments will be generated by AO3 and sent out no later than September 2nd. Keep an eye on the email associated with your AO3 account for your assignment!

THIS IS YOUR 48 HOUR COLLECTION OPENING WARNING

To allow time for last-minute editing and any bonus assignments that participants may still want to work on, the Last Minute Sub 2016 collection will officially open on Saturday, October 15th at 12:00 PM PDT (What time is that for me?)

As a reminder, all works will remain anonymous until creator reveals on October 19th. Please do your best to maintain the spirit of gift-giving anonymity until then!

Let us know if you have any questions, and see you on the 15th! :)

What happens next?

We have a pinch hit, an author working with an extension, and have contacted participants with outstanding submissions. If those authors do not get in contact with us by 8am PDT October 9th, they will automatically default and another batch of pinch hits will go out.

Just in case you want to join the last-minute pinch hit fun, you can still sign up for the pinch hit list!

When all the pinch hits are in, mods will give at least 48 hours of notice before the collection opens, which will be no later than 12pm PDT October 15th (what time is that for me?). You will be able to edit your fics and the collection will stay open until then for any last minute treats.

In the meantime, get excited for all of these amazing works and stay tuned for further announcements!

It’s getting down to the wire now! There are 12 hours ~~I'm a couple minutes late, so really 11 hours and 50 some minutes~~ until fics are due.

As always, please get in touch if you have any questions or last minute snafus!

sailor

It’s the home stretch! Assignments are due on October 8th at 11:59 PM PST (What time is that for me?)

Any assignments not submitted by the deadline will be defaulted and sent out as pinch hits. If you’d like to sign up for the Pinch Hitter List, it’s always open and there is no commitment once you’ve signed up!

We’ll check back in with more updates once the deadline has passed. If you have any questions in the meantime, please reach out to us. Good luck! :)

Feel that fire underneath you, participants? That's the deadline looming!

There's (roughly) one week left until the deadline for assignments. Assignments are due by October 8th at 11:59 PM PST (What time is that for me?)

If you need a refresher on how to fulfill your assignment on AO3, we have a tutorial here.

As always, the Beta Reader List and the Pinch Hitters List are open for sign-ups, whether or not you're a participant! Especially as it comes down to the wire, we're eternally grateful to our amazing pool of beta readers and pinch hitters. If you would like to request a beta for your work, feel free to email us at lastminutesubmods@gmail.com with what you're looking for in a beta (SPAG, plot, characterization, familiarity with a certain team, etc.) and we'll hook you up with one.

Good luck, and never hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions!

There are officially three weeks until assignments are due on Oct. 8th.

Good luck everyone, we can’t wait until we see what you’ve been working on :D
