Free! Secret Santa 2021
Greetings! We welcome you as our special guest to our secret santa event made specially for those who is fond of the anime "Free!"
First things first, you might ask; what is a Free! Secret Santa?
It is, well, basically an exchange event exclusively for Free! fans. All participants will sign up to create and receive fan made content pertaining to Free!
Then, how does it work? We're glad you asked!
Our moderators will pair up participants based on their content and requests! Once instructions are handed out, creators will have ample time to complete their work based on their giftee's requests and submit it. The mods will send out date claims for the participants to post and reveal themselves and their pieces.
So, since this is an event, there should be guidelines or rules . . . right?
You guessed right! Please keep reading to find our rules~
This page should list everything you need to know about the Do and Dont's for this secret santa event.
For the basics, the works created for this event should be centered around Free! characters. Crossovers are allowed, as long as your piece focuses on characters from Free!
All gifts must meet the requirements:
Due to the SFW nature of the event, all gifts should be purely SFW.Art must be at least one full-page work with color (black & white allowed if requested, background optional).Writing must meet a minimum word count of 2,000 words.All gifts should be in English.Gifts are not allowed to contain: incest, pedophilia, racism, lgbtphobia, etc.
And remember:
Participants must remain anonymous until the day of the reveal. Though, we do encourage you to tell others about the event! The more participants there are, the better we can match the participants.Please communicate with the mods as soon as possible if you feel like dropping out. This is to give more time for the pinch-hitter who will cover for you to create a gift within a limited time.
