Hello :) exchange anon again! (No need to apologize BTW ♥️♥️) that makes complete sense, and no pressure <3 to answer your question tho, I would absolutely love a specifically SJ exchange! Do you think there would be enough people signed up tho? Just a sg1 exchange would be good too, to maybe broaden interest more than strictly SJ but too make it less of a demand on you than Anything Stargate haha (but if you think a SJ exchange would get enough signups, totally go for that hehe)
Thanks for the reply ♥️
*drops out of hiatus again*
Hey anon! I honestly have no clue how many signups there would be, but last time people almost exclusively requested a fic for the same ship they wrote for -- all the SJ people wrote for each other, all the DJ people wrote for each other, all the Sheppard/McKay people wrote for each other, etc. So theoretically it would totally be possible to run an SJ-only exchange with equal or less work than the SG winter fic exchange.
Since you sent in your ask the idea has definitely been percolating in my mind, because I love running fandom events. I keep telling myself I don't have time, which is true, and that I'm not really active in SJ fandom anymore, which is also true. But my brain likes new shiny things. So we'll see -- maybe I'll revisit the idea in a few months :)
Sigh well I have no impulse control so if you're interested in this and have a twitter account please answer this poll here

been a minute! if you're interested in another fic exchange and have twitter please express your interest in the poll linked above
Are you planning another exchange? Or is there any other fandom event? I'm not new to the fandom (been there 20+ years), but I'm not really following a lot of SG1 bloga
Hey there! As of right now, we're not planning another exchange--at least not yet.
I don't know of any fandom events going on right now. Off the top of my head, I know there's a Sam/Jack ship week in maybe a month? Ish? Sometime in June/July, I think. Not sure if that's your ship of choice. I'm not aware of any Jack/Daniel ship festivities going on right now. I am absolutely sure that there are followers of this blog who know more than me--y'all, please chime in? :)

A day and some change left guys!
Reblogging here since I know we got quite a few McShep sign ups when we ran this :)
Hey! thanks for organizing this, it was really fun to participate! If you ever feel inclined to do another one of these in the future, it would be really cool if we could also include fan art too
Aww, thank you so much for the message! Glad you enjoyed the experience. :)
It’s great to know there’s interest in another exchange.
To give you a window into exchange-organizer thinking, I think the main considerations when including fan art in an exchange are
But neither of those mean we can’t do fan art next time, and I (starry) would personally love to do this, so we will definitely seriously consider it.
Thank you for the feedback! :)
The works for the Stargate Winter Fic Exchange have been revealed! Here’s a handy list for your reading pleasure, organized by show and ship. The few outstanding fics that haven’t been posted yet will be added as they are published.
And all the fics are all part of the Stargate Winter Fic Exchange collection on AO3 as well!

Thank you all for your wonderful writing, we’ve had a lot of fun!
(p.s. I tried to mention the tumblr handles I could find for our authors. But if yours isn’t tagged and you’d like to be, just let me know and I’ll add you! -starrybouquet)
Thank you all so much for your patience as well as a big thank you to everyone who has reached out to say their fic will be late/you haven’t yet received yours! As an effort to make sure that everyone receives their fics as fast as, we will be defaulting all assignments that haven’t made contact by 11:59 EST tonight and assigning pinch hitters. If you have already made contact before this post, there’s no need to message us again so no need to panic :) Pinch hitters will be assigned tomorrow and they will have 2 weeks to complete their fics. If you’re interested in being a pinch hitter, shoot us an ask with your AO3 pseud and what you’re willing to write if that differs from your initial offers :)

Who should we reach out to if we didn’t receive a fic? :( my contributions posted but I did not get one in return.
Oh no!!! You can reach out to either of our main blogs ( @badstargateimagines or @starrybouquet ) and we’ll get to the bottom of it. We’ll set up pinch hits as necessarybut for now we’ll try to touch base with your match to see of there’s possibly some confusion :) for now I’d recommend reaching out to me ( @badstargateimagines ) as I am online right now :)
As usual if there are any issues, don’t hesitate to let us know! Thank you to everyone who opted to participate and made this a successful exchange! This was the first exchange either of us have ever run so we thank you all for your patience! Y’all are the best!
Is there a reason the fics haven't posted yet? Mine is still showing as unrevealed.
I think they’ll be posted at midnight today. The deadline date seems to be a little off--sorry about that!
has the collection been delayed?
Nope! It should be revealed in a little under 24 hrs - midnight EST.
Sorry if there was any confusion about the deadline!
Just one day to go! Let us know if you run into any issues posting!
Would it be possible for you to set me up a second assignment for my recipient? I wrote two stories after having a wobble in confidence but figure she might as well get them both!
Hmm. I think the best way to do this would be to use one to fulfill the prompt, and "gift" the second outside of the exchange. Then you can let us know where the other story is and we can add it to the collection manually!
-starrybouquet
Will the fic automatically be gifted to the recipient?
There should be an option to select a recipient for the exchange when you post the fic! It's a checkbox-ish thing: here's a picture, I'm on mobile so excuse the messy box.
Hope that helps and let us know if you still need help!

question: how do we post as 'Mystery Work' to be revealed on the day itself? like, can we place the fic in the assignment without it being published right away?
When you fulfill the assignment, it will automatically be a mystery work until midnight (00h) EST on February 14th :)
Hi! A technical question here. Can we place our fics thru the Fulfill button on the Challenge Assignment? Even before Feb 14? Just wondering if you guys can regulate the revealing of the fics. Don't wanna accidentally post before the due date. (My first exchange, so not entirely familiar) Thanks!
Yup! The works will be revealed automatically at midnight (00h) EST on February 14th. Until then, they appear as a mystery work :)
At what time do you reveal the fics on the 14th?
AO3 has it set to midnight (00h) EST on the 14th however it wouldn’t be a huge deal if you need to post it later in the day. It’s not an automatic default if it’s late, however noon EST on February 14th would be the latest we’d rather without a message sent out way :)
