Create an account at Archive of Our Own

[dark_administrator]

While we do not require you to post your fanworks for the Racebending Revenge Challenge at the Archive of Our Own (AO3), we would strongly recommend that you consider it, since it will permit us to add it to our collection.

By posting it to the AO3, you can upload the story at any date before the 2nd that is convenient to you, and continue to edit it, without revealing it to anyone, until the collection goes live.

Being part of the collection will also make it easier for other interested readers to find your work under the 'dark agenda' tag, as well as other chromatic character related tags.

After you have created an account at AO3 and logged in, you can use this link to post your work to the collection. Here is a link to the AO3's tutorial on how to post a fic to a challenge colleciton.

If you would like a code to create an account at AO3, please leave your email address in a comment to this post; all comments will be screened.

I just wanted to confirm what I suspect is the case: if we cross-post to journals, we should wait until July 2, right?

[dark_administrator]

Yes please!

I'm on the waiting list for the site thing, but, since I'm the eighth person on the list, it says I can't activate the account or something until after the Challenge is over.

What should I do?

[dark_administrator]

Let me know your email address and I can send a code for the archive.

Hi! I've just tried twice adding a fic to the collection, but it keeps becoming a normal fic without any affiliation to the challenge (but when I then try to add manually it says it's already part of the challenge). I'm not sure what's going on? (Are submissions moderated, maybe?) Would you like me to delete the fic until Friday, or should I leave it?

[dark_administrator]

D'oh! Your moderator dhobikikutti was an idiot, and had the collection on moderated status, without realising that AO3 did not send notifications when a story was added to the collection. Her (My) apologies!

It's been set to unmoderated now, and your fic has been approved as well, so you should be good to go!

[quinara]

No worries! It seems to be all sorted now - hooray!

(I love your smokescreen of administrative disguise. :P )

I am not trying to be sockpuppety; it's just using the admin account means that my co-mods can jump in to edit or fix posts without waiting for me. :)
