Happy 817 Day! Six years ago, Wu Xie and Pangzi came to welcome Xiaoge home.

There are currently 68 gifts, fics and art both, created for the 10 Year Promise Pingxie Exchange to welcome Xiaoge back! Thank you all!

And it’s time for the reveals!

You can go view all the gifts in the AO3 collection.

If you participated, you should get an email notification with links to your gifts; alternatively you can visit your gift page to find your gifts: https://archiveofourown.org/users/YOURNAME/gifts :)

Remember to thank your creator. This is an anonymous exchange: the creators will remain anonymous for one week more (don’t reveal yourself!). You can (and should) still comment; everyone will receive comments notifications on their works anyway. If you want to reply to comments on your own works, that’s also fine: AO3 will hide your name automatically when you’re logged in!

And as it’s anonymous, we invite everyone to play a guessing game in the comments here. Try and guess who created your gift or other works! Don’t say anything if anyone guessed you ;) Remember it’s all in good fun.

The deadline is fast approaching: August 10th 11:59 PM Anywhere On Earth (what time is it for me?)!

Here are some important reminders:

- First of all, please double-check your recipient’s Do Not Wants (DNWs) and confirm that your work does not include any of them. Please do it even if you’ve already posted your work!

- Make sure your work is finished and complete (i.e., can stand on its own without prequels/sequels) and posted correctly to the AO3 collection; check that your recipient is marked correctly.

- Make sure you’re not posting a draft. Drafts are okay before the deadline, but they must be posted as normal works by the deadline!

- if you need an extension, a few days could be arranged, but please email us with details (pingxie.exchange@gmail.com)

- and if you’re done with your assignment already, consider treating someone ;)

There are three ways to post your work as a part of 10 Year Promise Pingxie Exchange.

Posting main assignment )
Posting treats )
Posting directly to the collection (for treats and main assignments) )
Other important things:
  • Your work will only be visible to you and the mods until the reveals. That's how it should be! If you added your work to the collection, but it's publicly visible, please contact the mods as soon as possible.
  • The exchange collection is moderated, which means a mod will need to approve your work before it becomes a part of the collection. It may take some time - don't worry about it. Your work is still unrevealed from public while it's awaiting approval.
  • Your unrevealed work will not be visible on your AO3 profile even to you. If you wish to edit it, you have to go to your statistics page and find the link to it there (https://archiveofourown.org/users/YOURNAME/stats). Once your work is approved, you will be able to see it in the "works in collection" part of your work list (https://archiveofourown.org/users/YOURNAME/works/collected)
  • AO3 does not host art. This means that you will need to upload your art somewhere else (imgur, tumblr drafts, etc. -- don't post it on your public twitter or a tumblr post, as it's supposed to be a secret until the reveals). To post it on AO3, right click on your uploaded art and choose "copy image location". On AO3, write: <img src="IMAGE_URL" width=100%>, replacing IMAGE_URL with the copied image location. That's it!
If you have any problems, let us know here or at pingxie.exchange@gmail.com and we'll try to help.

Matching is done and the assignments have been sent out! You should receive an email with your assignment, or you can check it directly on ao3, in the ‘my assignments’ panel available on the right of your profile page.

Remember to keep your assignment anonymous :) The deadline is on August 10th.

Requests are visible now, which means that treating can start! Treats are additional gifts for the participants. They don’t have to follow the minimum requirements, but as with the main gifts, they must not include stated DNWs of the recipient. The deadline for the treats is on August 24th (this means that you can keep treating after the gifts have been made visible, but while the creators remain anonymous after August 17th). You don’t have to be signed up for the exchange to treat.

The sign-ups are closed now! Thank you all for participating!

For the next few days, matching will take place! It’ll be hand-matched, based on the initial potential matches generated by AO3, to ensure the best fits for everyone. The assignments will be sent out no later than July 6th so that everyone can get started with creating their gifts!

And once the assignments are out, the requests will be made visible to allow for treating, too! And you don’t have to sign up in order to treat someone^^
