Sign ups are open!

MERLIN HOLIDAYS ARE GO

Sign ups for both writers and artists are open!

GO HERE TO SIGN UP

Comprehensive Guide to Sign Ups

If you're proxying for a writer, just comment below.

If you're an artist, you go outside the 40 writer limit, so you don't really need a proxy ^^

ETA: ALL SIGN-UPS ARE NOW CLOSED! PARTICIPANTS WILL RECEIVE ASSIGNMENTS NO LATER THAN MONDAY 9/29.

The site would not work for me :( Am I the only one with this issue?

[identity profile] merlin-hols.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
It seems to work for me. What kind of issues are you having?

[identity profile] mssdare.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Doesn't work for me either :(

[identity profile] bunnysworld.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:13 pm (UTC)(link)

somehow none of this works for me. if the spaces are not all gone yet, i'd like to play. will try again once i'm home and on a computer, not my cell... :(

It's okay! I managed to reach the page by AO3 and not following your link!

[identity profile] merlin-hols.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)
still plenty of room. What's not working/what's happening when you try?

[identity profile] merlin-hols.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Good to know!

[identity profile] merlin-hols.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:16 pm (UTC)(link)
What happens when you try?

[identity profile] gwylliondream.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I successfully signed up \o/

The site was very slow and I received a pop up that said there was a long-running script. I clicked the box to disable the script and it worked much better.

I took full advantage of tags, but I got an error message that informed me that "Magic Reveal" was not an allowable canon tag. Ah, well, I omitted that one and my submission was processed without further complication.

Like all new things, this new registration process will take some fine tuning.

Thanks to the mods for putting it all together.

I've managed to make it work by going on AO3 first, than searching for the Collection!

[identity profile] aeris444.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:35 pm (UTC)(link)
I've done it but quite hastily since I'm a work now. Can I still edit my prompts later today?

[identity profile] merlin-hols.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, you can edit your prompts until sign-ups close on Thursday.

I didn't have any problems signing up, or I don't THINK I did... But what is the Join button for? Do we need to join as well?

[identity profile] captainlogic.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:41 pm (UTC)(link)
the link did work for me, but man alive is AO3 finicky!! drove me crazy but, despite being totally convinced I've done something wrong in my sign-up, I did manage to submit!! so so sorry if I did enter something wrong! Im CaseyStar over on AO3!

[identity profile] merlin-hols.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay! You're signed up, but it looks like you're missing the tags for type of work and era. When you get a chance, please edit your sign-up to add the required tags (see the sign-up guide linked above for a walk-through).

[identity profile] merlin-hols.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Not sure what the Join button is for, to be honest! But you don't need to join in order to sign up, so don't worry about it. :-D

[identity profile] captainlogic.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
grrrrre thise were there when I did it! and on my sign up page where I can edit, they're showing up. I'll give it another shot!

[identity profile] captainlogic.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 02:55 pm (UTC)(link)
is thst better? on my signups its definitely got fanfiction marked in additional tags for both offer and request and alternate universe modern setting markedtoo, in both.

[identity profile] merlin-hols.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Looks good now, thanks! Just our luck that AO3 decided to get squirrelly today!

[identity profile] argentsleeper.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I had Firefox crash four times, but it worked eventually!

[identity profile] merlin-hols.livejournal.com 2014-09-22 03:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Hurray! It looks like Yuletide nominations also started this morning, which explains why AO3 is being a bit persnickety.
