Comments will be screened to maintain anonymity of the pinch hitter.

Hello Duesers,

This is your check in post. Assignments are due in 7 days. If you think you can't make that date, send me an email: dsssmod20@gmail.com so we can get the assignment out to pinch hitters.

Now is also the time you can create treats. Please only take on treats if you have finished your gift. I won't accept works if you have gifts outstanding.

Finally, if you're willing to beta or cheerlead please drop your name and contact below.

Get in touch if you need anything

Hello everyone!

This is a courtesy post to inform you of an addition to the DSSS gift exchange rules. It can be found in the rule tab and on the AO3 profile page quite near the top.

The new rule is here:

No amount of any AI generated content in a DSSS gift exchange work is allowed. Including AI generated words, art, etc. in your final work will be regarded as plagiarism and handled as such. We can't prevent you from asking AI for prompts, but the mod strongly encourages you to instead utilize our discord server and the broader due South fannish community

Any questions or issues please comment here or DM me.

wicked3659

Signups are indeed open! If you're interested, links below!

We're back!! Welcome Duesers to the 2025 Seekrit Santa. :D

Now I know the DS Big Bang is still currently ongoing and will run late this year, so don't feel pressured, but if you didn't manage to join in with that event, perhaps a nice chill gift exchange will lift your spirits and get your ideas flowing. I hope you will consider joining. Minimum entry is 1000 words or arts <3

Here is this year's schedule!

Signups Open	Wednesday 1st October 2025
Signups Close	Sunday October 26th, 2025 at 11:59pm (UTC)
Assignments sent out to participants	Monday October 27th 2025
Collection open for posting	Saturday 1st November, 2025

Welcome back to another year of DSSS. This year everything will run like last year. Hopefully!

The AO3 tagset will run like a standard exchange with 3 requests to 1 match-up carried out using AO3 algorithms.

Requests will be visible from the start of sign-ups. This allows for more transparency and more time to start thinking about treats, whether or not you decide to sign up for the main event.

Go sign up here when it opens: archiveofourown.org/collections/DSSS2025

There will be no beta check-in. We recommend you get your work beta'd before submitting it to continue DSSS high standards. It is a gift after all. The mod (me) will be checking for any glaring mistakes when you submit and will get in touch if anything needs amending.

That being said, there will be a beta volunteer post at a later date, so please ask if you are struggling to get a beta.

Nobody wants to default. But if you do, and later on you get inspiration for something else, there's nothing wrong with throwing more cake into the mix. Who doesn't love more cake at Christmas? I will still ensure that everybody who signs up gets a gift regardless. But treats are welcome from everybody, even if you've not signed up.

The collection will be open at the same time this year, giving more time for contributions.

If you have any questions, please comment on this post.

Current Mood: awake

Hello Seekrit Santas,

I am putting out an announcement for anyone currently signed up who might like to do a swap. No explanation needed, perhaps the prompts aren't hitting the right notes or you're just not feeling confident you can do justice to what your gifter will really enjoy.

No judgement, but I will need you to email me privately on the dsssmod20@gmail.com to discuss the details of the prompts to maintain the secrecy and anonymity of the gift exchange. As soon as possible, thank you kindly.

All your assignments have been sent. Any issues please message me or email the mod email.

Have fun, get your Secret Santa letters ready and don't talk about your assignments, it's a surprise 🤪🤫

Welcome back to another year of DSSS. This year everything will run like last year. (Except a little late and with a shorter sign up (what's new!?).

The AO3 tagset will run like a standard exchange with 3 requests to 1 match up carried out using AO3 algorithms.

Requests will be visible from the start of sign ups. This allows for more transparency and longer time to start thinking about treats whether or not you decide to sign up to the main event.

There will be no beta check in. We recommend you get your work beta'd before submitting it to continue DSSS high standards. It is a gift after all. The mod (me) will be checking for any glaring mistakes when you submit and will get in touch if anything needs amending.

That being said there will be a beta volunteer post at a later date so please ask if you are struggling to get a beta.

We are scrapping the rule that if you default on your main match you can't treat. We understand why this was done previously but we decided that life happens sometimes, and inspiration comes and goes when it feels like it. Nobody wants to default. But if you do, and later on you get inspiration for something else, there's nothing wrong with throwing more cake into the mix. Who doesn't love more cake at Christmas? I will still ensure that everybody who signs up gets a gift regardless.

The collection will be open at the same time this year giving more time for contributions.

If you have any questions please comment on this post.

Sign ups are open (give or take an hour from now). Get ready!

Hello all! The old/lost dSSS entries that were on the defunct (for several years now) crocolanthus server - and the initial LJs - are being imported to AO3 by OTW. I worked so hard tracking down links from the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine (and LJ) and OTW is going to start importing next month.

Please see their post on AO3 for more details on how to reach them if you're an author or were a recipient and you think you might have a dSSS fanwork (or 2, or 3, or more!) that will be in their import. (I will not be doing the importing, only OTW does that, so I'm not the one to contact going forward!) Thank you! And thank you, OTW!
