Under 48 Hours to Deadline; DNWs and other notes

[modzilla]

Good luck to everyone working to meet the main deadline! It's 11:59pm EST, Saturday 20 January and here's a countdown.

When posting, please:

• Check your work is fully posted (rather than 'preview' or 'save as draft'). It should appear on your Stats page! I will contact you if I see you've uploaded a draft, but I may need to seek a pinch hit.


• Check your recipient's Do-Not-Wants. This is really important. Thorough DNW checking is out of scope for me as a mod. It's a tragedy when someone spends a lot of time working on a gift, overlooks or misinterprets a DNW, and ends up with a work their recipient can't appreciate and may even feel hurt by. If you're unsure about a DNW, you're very welcome to email me to check. A beta's advice may also be useful.

Please don't upload placeholders (either something like filler text that doesn't match the request, or a work that is so rough that you'd be embarrassed to see it go live). I give moderate extensions (please email) and you don't need to tell me why you're asking for one.
