The category Application cutoff is
the 15th of each month. What that means is you have
until the 15th to submit an application if you want it to be included in the current round. For example, those who wish their applications to be processed in May, need to have their applications submitted by May 15th. Anything sent in
after the 15th is held for the following round (as long as the topic at hand is not due for the actual round).
Please remember: You are still only allowed to have
3 pending applications at any point in time, regardless of what round they will be included in. Any additional application will be returned.
In regards to subjects recently removed from the Network; this includes
Troubles/Overdue Removals and
Closed fanlistings.
- Fanlistings which were removed less than a month from the cutoff are held for the next round. If the fanlisting for Bleach: Kurosaki Ichigo (example!) was removed on the 3rd of June, he would not be processed until the July round and potential applicants have until July 15 to submit applications.
- If a popular subject is to be included in a current round and applicants submit after the cutoff, those applications will not be included in the approval decision. They are automatically disregarded and applicants notified as such.
Basically, from the time a fanlisting is removed from the Network, you have a month (if not longer) to apply for it. From this point on,
NO exceptions will be made to this practice. It is also HIGHLY recommended that you
check if I've received your application via the appropriate thread.
In regards to subjects from series that have been
recently released AND
newly introduced characters in on-going series.
- Characters who have appeared less than 4 weeks/episodes/chapters ago in a series will NOT be approved until that span of time has elapsed. This as to give a fair chance to everyone and enough "time" for character establishment.
(Feel free to provide as much material to help backing-up your application).
- Please note the above rule may have exceptions, to be determined on a case-by-case basis. For example, if a character appears only in shadow for a brief time in a chapter, and three chapters later, he/she/it still has not received any development, then an application for that character may be declined even though 4 chapters have passed.
- Obviously this only applies to on-going series and not movies or single OVAs.
- Note that the application cut-off deadline still applies.
