Since nominations and signups will are open concurrently, if you see any duplicate or migrating tags in your fandoms, comment here ASAP if you notice any issues. Once a tag has been requested by someone, it can't be corrected in the tagset.

Good luck, and I hope you will join us for D4D this round!!

Nominations Query 1

Nominations have been open for a day, and approvals are all caught up (up to the writing of this post). The tagset is looking tremendous so far!!

This post is seeking information on a few of the nominations that have been made. Tags get rejected prior to querying just so that new tags can be displayed. If a tag has been rejected to be queried, don't panic! I will add any tags that you need back into the tagset manually.


Tags to Query

My Little Pony Generation 1
Creator's choice of character as a pony
  • Nominator of MLPG1, could you confirm whether you want any character in MLP Generation 1 to be a pony, or if you want this tag to apply to any character in any fandom?

    If it's the latter, would you prefer that tag to be in Crossover Fandom, or Creator's Choice of Doodle fandom? I'll add whichever tag you want to the tagset. If you'd like more than one, please respond to this post to let me know!

  • "Creator's choice of character from any fandom drawn as a pony (My Little Pony G1)" added to tagset


Recipient's OCs for Doodles
Recipient’s Original Anthro/Furry Character (Recipient’s OCs)
  • Tag nominator, unfortunately the slash is ambiguous in this context (e.g. someone might want to use this as a relationship nomination, and then it would also need a "Group:" prefix). Would it be okay to rephrase this tag as "Recipient’s Original Anthro or Furry Character (Recipient’s OCs)"? Please respond to this post to let me know!

    updated tag has been added to the tagset!

If you've had a tag that's been rejected and it isn't noted in this post, please reach out here or on the screened mod contact post!

Nominations Rundown

  • Each participant can nominate up to 10 fandoms, with up to 20 characters/ships in each fandom.
  • Nominations will be done in the character field.
  • You will be required to use a Group: prefix for any / or & relationships that involve more than one character
  • Settings or objects should use the Setting: or Object: prefix. If there is a canonical character tag for a setting or object, you may use that instead.
