iamrman posting in scans_dailyNominations Clarifications
23 Apr 2025 01:41 pmminutia_r posting in jukebox_festHi there! We've still got a few days left of nominations (they close on 27 April 2025 11:59pm EDT); thanks to everyone who has nominated so far. Your mod team has a couple of questions and comments at this point.
To the nominator of Satisfied—do you have a specific version or performance in mind, or would you rather leave it as a general tag?
We've caught a couple of incidents where we incorrectly rejected a nomination. (Sorry!) If you have made a nomination that you think should have been accepted but you don't see it in the tag set, please comment on this post or get in touch with the mod team.
Also, if you commented with your songs/videos on the nominations post, please make sure that you also nominated them on AO3, or else they won't be in the tag set.
This year, we received a number of nominations of short videos that combined both music and dialogue. We've decided to accept them into the exchange this year, but going forward, we're considering a rule that any video has to be at least 50% music by runtime in order to be accepted. What do you think?

MANNY: Gary's gone.
BUFFY: Gary. Oh, the guy that helped me out at the counter yesterday?
MANNY: He didn't show up this morning.
BUFFY: Well, shift's just starting.
MANNY: He was supposed to unlock early this morning. Didn't show. Pull his card.
BUFFY: Well, I'm, I'm sure, you know, he's just late. He didn't seem like he was leaving.
MANNY: I'm moving Timothy to counter. You're on grill.
BUFFY: Me?
MANNY: I've been watching you.
BUFFY: B-but I-I don't know how to grill.
MANNY: Just think. This is the last day you'll ever be able to say that.

Feedback Post
22 Apr 2025 08:12 pmextrapenguin posting in space_swapSlightly belatedly, the feedback post!
This year, I moved internationally during the exchange (pro tip: don't do this), with the actual moving date being the day sign-ups ended so I handled noms and sign-ups while packing (pro tip: super don't do this), and essentially felt like I was juggling about three balls too many at any given time. Hopefully this feeling of complete chaos did not reach you, but if it did, don't worry, I will not be moving, internationally or otherwise, next year!
With the above disclaimed, if you have any feedback, I'd be happy to hear it! (Even if it's "you sure seemed more disorganized than usual this year" or whatnot.) Requests on where to advertise? Wishes for a clearer FAQ/instructions?

Mod Post: Off-Topic Tuesday
22 Apr 2025 08:30 amicon_uk posting in scans_dailyIn the comments to these weekly posts (and only these posts), it's your chance to go as off topic as you like.
Talk about non-comics stuff, thread derail, and just generally chat among yourselves.
The intent of these posts is to chat and have some fun and, sure, vent a little as required. Reasoned debate is fine, as always, but if you have to ask if something is going over the line, think carefully before posting please.
Normal board rules about conduct and behaviour still apply, of course.
It's been suggested that, if discussing spoilers for recent media events, it might be advisable to consider using the rot13 method to prevent other members seeing spoilers in passing.
The world situation is the world situation. If you're following the news, you know it as much as I do, if you're not, then there are better sources than me. But please, no doomscrolling, for your own sake.
The UK Supreme Court ruled that the legal definition of "woman" is defined solely by biological sex (Whilst also mentioning the protections are still in palce for trans people), crowed over as vindication by those who you never want to see crowing, and leaving trans people in vague limbo whilst Government bodies look to rework their policies.
Pope Francis died at 88, the day after Easter and the day after meeting US VP Vance... coincidence? A Pope who, more than any before, shifted the boundaries in terms of seeking out the excluded and the marginalised and caused uproar when he said things like "If someone who is gay is seeking God, who am I to judge?" and permitted priests to give a blessing to same-sex couples. Not a perfect man by any means, nor as radical as some had hoped, but in terms of the inertia he was working against, probably more progressive than any would have dared hope for ten years ago.
Star Wars Celebration happened in Japan this past weekend, with many new projects announced
A live colossal squid was caught on camera for the first time and is as beautiful as you'd have hoped
And Doctor Who gave us "Lux", which I won't spoil further but was certainly different, in a good way.
