fandom5kHello! I have continued the annual tradition of dragging my feet on posting a schedule and, as a result, pushing everything just a little bit later than last year. But 2025 is here! Some dates may be tweaked slightly before signups begin:
I'm also announcing a few rule changes.
First, standalone comics of 5 pages or more will be allowed this year!
Second, partly to support the ability to request/offer comics for different character combinations, I will be allowing participants to request and offer the same fandom multiple times. You must still request 3 unique fandoms and offer 4 unique fandoms.
Third and finally, the use of AI to generate text or images is not allowed in Fandom5K.
Rules are still being finalized, but you can read the draft here. Not much else has changed since last year.
Nominations: 23 April - 1 May
Signups: 3 May - 11 May
Assignments out by: 14 May
Mandatory check-in: 7-14 June
Default deadline: 14 June
Works due: 28 June
Works revealed: 19 July
Creators revealed: 28 July
