Nominations are open!

[olentowrites]

Go forth and nominate!

-> Link here! <-

Remember the correct nomination form: it should be like "Character A/Character B (Fandom) (virgin B)", for example Wei Wuxian/Lan Wangji (MDZS) (both virgins) or Wei Wuxian/Lan Wangji (MDZS) (virgin LWJ)

Please also remember to disambiguate the fandoms. Avoid piping: as you can see from my example, it's Wei Wuxian instead of Wei Ying | Wei Wuxian.

Also, the nomination form will tell you that If crossover relationships are allowed, you can enter them under either fandom. This is the default text which I cannot change, and it's lying, don't listen to it! Nominate all crossovers under "Crossover Fandom". For example: "Harry Potter (HP)/Wei Wuxian (MDZS) (virgin WWX) (CF)"

The freeforms should also be in the spirit of the exchange and be somehow related to the concept of virginity. You can take a look at last year's tagset for inspiration: link here.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is it ok to nominate pairings where the person having a first time isn't a virgin but it IS their first time with someone of the same gender, for example? Or it's their first time having sex that's actually enjoyable/isn't rape? Apologies if you've already answered this somewhere obvious.

Yes, of course! It's mentioned in the rules, actually xD But yes, if the character, in the situation you described, feels it's ~significant enough~ to count as their first time, then... it is.

Unfortunately, this can't be easily indicated in the nominated pairing itself. My best guess would be to nominate "Character A/Character B (virgin B)", then request it with a freeform "First time with same gender" or "First time after being raped" (both of these were in last year's tagset, I'm sure they will make a comeback this year). Of course this does not *guarantee* that you will get exactly what you want - you might get a match based on another freeform, after all.

I hope this answered your question!

Got it, thank you! :D
