2025 Nominations

[flowersforgraves]

Welcome to the official nominations post for 2025. Please read all guidelines before nominating.

Each participant may nominate a maximum of 5 medium types and 5 fandoms. There is no limit to the number of characters you may nominate in each fandom. In contrast to previous rounds, no relationships or groups may be nominated.

Can I Nominate...
- Original Works? Yes!
- RPF? Yes, as long as all nominated persons are 18+ and famous in their own right.
- Worldbuilding? Yes!
- Creator's Choice of Fandom? No. I will add this in at the end of nominations.
- "Any X Character"? Yes!
- Existing fanworks (in order to create recursive fanworks)? Yes, as long as you provide me with a link to a permission statement by the original fanwork creator. I will not search for this myself.

Please nominate fandom/characters and medium types in separate comments. This helps me keep track of them. If you include both in the same comment, I will only accept the one you've listed first. The first two top-level comments are examples from me.

If you're using a specific phrasing for a medium that may not be easily found with a quick web search, please include a link! This helps me determine if it's appropriate for this event and, further, to create a specific minimum.

Medium Nominations

- Poetry
- Filk

Re: Medium Nominations

[flowersforgraves]

Filk is in! Do you have any more specific wants for Poetry? In previous rounds I've had participants requesting forms such as sonnets, villanelles, free verse, etc. in separate tags, but I'm happy to have "Creator's Choice of Poetry Form" or similar here.

Re: Medium Nominations

[eafay70]

I don't have any more specific wants for Poetry. "Creator's Choice of Poetry Form" sounds good to me, thanks!

(I'll also take the opportunity to say that I'm happy to see this exchange running again! I'm excited to participate on an all-DW exchange for the first time.)

It looks like you accidentally left my moodboard nom off the accepted mediums list.

Whoops, it was living inside the close cut tag. Thanks for catching that!

I'm thinking "movie" ought to be a wider term for various video-type media, depending on the fandom (i.e. Star Wars would be "holodrama" but a contemporary fandom would be "movie/film," but I can't figure out what to use and thought there might be something used in previous years that would fit.

Re: Medium Nominations

[flowersforgraves]

"Fanmix" is already accepted -- is there a distinction between the two I'm unaware of? In the parts of fandom I'm familiar with, these two are generally the same.
