Post-Deadline Pinch Hits!

As the event winds down, we're left with a few participants who have submitted works but haven't yet actually received anything. These participants are pinch hits, listed below. Please consider filling one of these pinch hits so that we can reveal the collection on time!

Pinch hitting instructions

Due date

Pinch hits are due on Saturday, July 5th, at 10:00pm EDT. (Countdown) If all pinch hits are not turned in by this time, we will delay reveals (currently scheduled for the 6th) until all pinch hits are in. No gifts for any of us until we've got gifts for all of us!

Pinch hit minimums

AAT is a little weird, so here's a quick rundown of the requirements for filling a pinch hit:

• Post 500 words (or equivalent) in gift(s). You can find information about wordcount equivalents here.
• There is no minimum gift length as long as a pinch hit receives 500 words total, but you probably shouldn't fill a pinch hit with 10 color palettes unless your recipient directly enthuses about receiving such a wealth of palettes.
• Works must match one fandom, one character-slot medium, and one relationship-slot tag from the same request.
• Freeform tags count as optional details in this event.
• You may create multimedia works in requested mediums, for example an illustrated fic for someone who's requested both fic and fanart.
• AAT has no anonymous period and you are not expected to maintain anonymity even while creating. If you have a question for your recip and know how to contact them, you're welcome to do so directly. If you don't know how to contact them, you can email us at auctionsasthreatened@gmail.com

How to pick up a pinch hit

Reply to this Dreamwidth post (no account required) with the following information:

• The AO3 username you will be posting your gift(s) from.
• Which pinch hit you would like to fill
• Your email

We aren't using AO3 assignments for this event. If you comment on this post anonymously, we'll email you to let you know if you did or didn't get the assignment (because even though anonymity isn't required, we're still screening the comments on this post). Even logged in pinch hitters need to provide an email, though, so that we can contact you if need be later.
