Your friendly maintainer for the exchange here, reminding you that since it's an hour until midnight by my time, I have arranged the match-ups and sent them out to participants. There are a couple of exceptions, but I will get to that later.

Tomorrow, August 25th, marks the beginning of the work-creation period. By September 12th, I hope all of you have a fanfic or fanart ready for your giftee! Before you get started brainstorming, however, I very much recommend that you take a look at your giftee's information in the sign-up post. This will help you to understand what your giftee does and does not want as well as ensure that your present is accepted with love and happiness during the actual exchange period.

As I detailed loosely in the sign-up post, sometime soon I should be posting up several inspirational prompts in case you feel yourself stuck. You can skim through these to help dislodge any creative blockage, or, if you so desire, you can write specifically for that prompt (in which case you can claim it). Later in the evening tomorrow these prompts should go up; I'll edit this same post with a table and a few more rules concerning claiming and such.

Now, last but not least, there are TWO participants I know of who have not received their match-ups yet:
puchiko2 
neko_no_hanashi 

If you are either one, please enable non-friend LJ messaging temporarily so I can message you your assignment! Or, if you'd rather not create your work anonymously to your giftee, then you're welcome to notify me here that you'd just like to receive a comment with your match-up information.

Other than that, if you are not one of any of the users listed above and you have not received your match-up yet, please let me know. Good luck, everyone.

EDIT: I now have twenty-five prompts for inspirational purposes. Twenty-five more will come tomorrow, and after that, if need be, I shall provide even more.
As said, you can skim over these prompts as creativity boosters, or, if you have an idea for a work specific to a prompt here, you can claim the prompt. To claim, please comment here with your username and bolded prompt from the table, putting the subject as "claim". From there, I'll respond that you have taken the prompt and then strike-out the prompt from the table to represent it's claimed status.
If you have changed your mind and would rather withdraw your prompt, include the same information in a comment as in the claiming comment (username, bolded prompt) and write the subject as "withdrawal". I'll go back and make sure the prompt is open to everyone.
