Thank you for putting so much thought into it. :-)
Would it be okay for you and everybody else to post a list of all participants?Okay, if no one speaks out against it within the next 24 hours, I'll post it tomorrow evening.
I'm ok with that and the dates!

It'd make sense, I'd say.

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013
Yeah, I can make that work. I'm in med school, so if you all will be a bit kind, I will get my stuff done for sure! Like I said, it probably won't be beta'd, but I will send a beta'd final version to whoever I get! I will, of course, proofread it myself, but it won't be brit-picked!

Kerkerian, this all sounds really great and like a huge amount of fun! Hope you forgot about your teeth troubles while sorting everything out!

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013
I'm okay with the list, too.
But I have a question: maybe I failed to see it, but how do I know on which day my story will be posted? I really need to know how much time I have for writing it

That's a good question.

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013
That's a good question.
Let me quote from the first post:
Registration will end on November 10, that way I can sort it all out and distribute the Secret Santas so that the writing can begin on November 15. Ideally, the finished stories should be sent to me on November 30 at the latest. If for some reason your story isn't finished by then, please tell me, so that I can schedule it for a later date.
I was going to draw the dates when I've got all the stories, that way it stays fair.
Apart from that: all the participants have now received their emails about whose Secret Santa they are and what their challenge looks like. If someone's not gotten theirs, please give me a shout.
The participants are:
Ormond Sacker
SherlockianDE
GoSherlocked
Harry
Sherwings
Schmiezi
YukinaKid
Solar
Amy1oMM (BrettianHolmesFan)
stoertebeker
Marva
Alyxpoe

Does anybody know what the character limit for posts is?

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013
Why? This is a perfectly reasonable question. You did not really believe the multi-chapter epic thing, did you?

Harriet, this is getting offensive.

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013
Are you saying that as Susi or as mod?

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013
As a mod, of course. We have to keep a certain level of politeness.
Btw, I just did a test with a 1,820 word story. No problem.

A bit overambitious, aren't you?
