>Aww. Maybe next time, MLP/Buffy crossover.
Sorry, man. I like to keep the Pokemon relation as a common thread because there's the inevitability that your fun cross-fandom request will fall into the hands of someone who just plain doesn't care for ponies and/or Joss Whedon, whereas a request like "Octillery/Dr. Octagonapus fusion" at least gives the volunteer something to work with even if it leaves them scratching their heads and wondering what the heck a Dr. Octagonapus is. >if badges fall under sprites category, then sure Yeah, I'd throw the badges under the spriting category, which last year was mostly "Make a sprite for my UPC 'mon!" or various cool scratching requests. Sorry to keep asking questions, but to make things 100% certain, will that be a hard switch from art to sprites or would you like to try both? Everything else is up to date! And I'm taking everyone's requests and organizing them neatly so the request assignments will go as smoothly as possible.

Volunteer list updated. This is something that hasn't been brought up in-thread but is something requesters have done before: If you have a major surplus of ideas for a given category, you're allowed to submit requests where you can give the volunteer other options. Here's an example:

Are you particularly short of requests Hana? Cause I'll put in one if you need to buff up your numbers~ |

Though it's too early to worry about request numbers, which take a few days to really get going, any category that isn't art can be pretty slow to accumulate requests. The goal each year for request numbers is to make sure there's enough to give every volunteer one piece to work on.
...man, this could be so much less complicated if it were... closer to an actual Secret Santa. Something to think about for next year so there's less hemming and hawing over "request quotas."

For the distinction between spriter and artist, it's generally best to think of artists as using pencils/brushes/tablets/etc, while spriters are more pixel-by-pixel artwork (you know how it is: Zoom in to 8x, take out the pencil, start mixing colours, and laboriously begin placing pixel after pixel).

No worries, you're doing perfectly fine so far. There's still over a week to go for sign-ups and requests.

I'd like to volunteer as an artist; though the deadline at the 25th means I'll be out of town/away from a computer so a shorter deadline for me :<
requests hmmm, might have to go wildcard on this; don't have any ideas for a request yet. |

Would you like me to put you down for one request, then? I dig the growing MS Paint faction forming with successive Secret Santas.

I'd like to volunteer as an artist, though I am only able to do one request.
Also thank you Red for alerting me that this was going on.

Let's see how bad this goes.
I'll sign up to be a writer, but I can only manage one piece. |

Excellent. Volunteer list is updated and all of the requests from overnight are accounted for. Thanks to everyone who's volunteered and/or sent in requests so far.

Perhaps it's worth farming off the wild cards to under subscribed categories.

I wouldn't be too concerned with request numbers until it's say, the 7th or 8th and they're still lagging way behind. It can take people a few days to come up with what they want, and we're not far from the point in the sign-up/requesting period where requests start to appear in higher numbers (though part of that is from prodding people to send in their requests.)
