The Tesseract has awakened. It is on a little world, a human world...

::ahem:: Sorry, fandom clash...

Anyway, I was sitting here thinking to myself, and what I thought was Self, there's something that you're meant to be doing today. Something that happens around this time every year. But it eluded me like bald cat greased with butter. So, I pondered* and pondered** and then pondered*** some more. And then it hit me, like a blast of inspiration from the heavens. A blast of inspiration that came in the form of a small grey naked alien wearing a festive hat.

And we all know what that means: SGA Secret Santa 2012 is open for business *\o/*

Bring us your gen, your het, your slash.

Bring us your OTPs, your threesomes, your forgies, your puppypiles in the middle of the gateroom.

Bring us John and Teyla and Rodney and Ronon.

Bring us Wraith and Asurans and Asgard and Genii.

Bring us Teyla, directing Ronon's hands as they slide over John's body. Bring us Sam and Jennifer, and seven inventive uses for medical equipment. Bring us the team, laughing and loving and never once doubting that they'll be there for each other.

Bring us the stories that long to be told, the ones that rest on the lips of Radek, of Evan, of Rodney.

Bring us your requests, and bring us enough fic to see us all the way through the festive season and out the other side.

The relevant dates:

Sign-ups are between now and Tuesday October 9th. All the requests will then be jumbled up and sent back out by October 16th (gives us time to match everyone up).

Responses to gift requests are to be sent to one of the moderators ([livejournal.com profile] moonlettuce or [livejournal.com profile] alyse) on or before December 10th.

Between December 14th and December 23rd all gift!fics will be posted for your delight and delectation.

To join the exchange, simply sign up to the community and post a request with the following information:

LiveJournal:
E-mail:
Things I'd like: You can request as many things as you'd like in here. That doesn't mean you'll get them all, but there's no harm in asking. If you'd like a specific pairing, or character, then speak now or forever hold thy peace :-)
Things I wouldn't like: If there's anything you wouldn't like to receive (pairing, character, etc) then here's the place to mention it.
What I can do: Are you a slash only person? Do you only write a specific character or pairing?
What I can't do: If there's anything you feel you can't do, then please say so here. If you can't write NC-17 fic, or have no desire to write het / slash, or a specific pairing or character then please say so.
Pinch hitter?: In the event of someone not being able to complete their gift!fic, are you willing to be stand-in writer?

Please post your request as a new post in the community.

For those people without LJs, the non-LJ sign-up post is here: http://sga-santa.livejournal.com/380827.html

All stories should be a minimum of 1,000 words in length and everyone who signs up to receive a story will be expected to write one in return.

<b>Please note, if you do not get a story to us in time we will organise a pinch hitter so that your recipient isn't left without a fic at the end of the fest. If we do this, do not whine at us, because all we will do is mock.</b>

Other information can be found here. Any questions, just ask.

* AKA: Read Clint Barton/Phil Coulson porn.

** AKA: Read a bit more Clint Barton/Phil Coulson porn.

*** AKA: Read even more Clint Barton/Phil Coulson porn, just to round things out.

A little fandom mixing is never a bad thing!

Yes! Secret Santa Time!

I'm a little excited. I think I hid it pretty well, don't you?

Out of curiosity: how do you match people up? Do you have a system?

We match people up based on what they've requested and what other people have offered, but in a way that bears in mind what other people have asked for and offered.

So if A has asked for x, y and z, and B has offered x, y and z, you would think that they'd be matched together. However, it could be that C has asked for z and only A and B have offered to write it, so one of them would have to write for C.

We also try and avoid straight swaps where we can. It's not always possible, given the number of different pairings we have, including rare pairs, but wherever possible we'll try to make sure that A doesn't write for B if B is writing for A :)

I think a hat may be involved for people wanting non-kinky McKay/Sheppard, but you'll have to ask Claire about that :D

It sounds very complicated! Do you have spreadsheets?

Oh boy do we have spreadsheets! Some of them are even conditionally formatted :D

Asking for a friend... When do signups actually close? You say "Sunday October 9th". The 9th is a Tuesday.

It will be Tuesday because Claire's running the last Connotations Con this weekend.
