4.5 hours from Nominations Deadline!

[tavina]

Hi everyone! We're 4.5 hours or thereabouts from nominations closing for the 2025/2026 round of AU5k!

What time is that for me?

After nominations close later tonight, there will be a query post going up likely sometime tomorrow - we do not have many queries, so be on the lookout if your nominations have not been processed 24 hours after nominations close.

Next, we will head into nominations cleanup, where we will look for and remove duplicates, fix up any nominations that need to be queried, and finish processing all of the nominations still outstanding in the tagset, before we begin to open for signups. Signups may open early depending on the quickness of the process for nomination cleanup, but this cannot be guaranteed, so expect signups to open at the scheduled time.

Thank you to everyone for your interest in this event, and an especial thanks to DontStopHerNow for their outstanding work during the nominations period, your help is much appreciated.

Nominations Closed!

Nominations are now closed!

We are mostly done processing freeform nominations (with the exception of outstanding queries) and in the process of wrapping up relationship and character nomination processing, so keep an eye out for a query post sometime tomorrow evening!
