Nominations
Your nominations must be for canons that feature emergency service personnel from the following list:

- Coastguard
- Dispatch and Call Handlers
- Fire & Rescue (including Mountain Rescue)
- Hospital Emergency Department
- Police/Security Response Officers
- Other Emergency Service that can be justified as an Emergency Service according to the canon lore. This could include Sci-Fi, Superhero or Supernatural universes where their Emergency Response Personnel may not meet any of the above definitions, or just something not covered by the above (for example, The AA according to their advert with John Cleese - That’s a Yuletide fandom if I’ve ever known one.)
For example (9-1-1: Lone Star)
Grace Ryder (Dispatcher) - here you would write Grace in her role as Call Handler/Dispatcher.
Judd Ryder (Firefighter) - here Judd would be in his role as Firefighter.
Grace Ryder (Target) - here Grace could be the one being rescued or treated.
Charlie Ryder (Target) - here, their child Charlie could be the one being rescued or treated.
“Original Character(s) (Target)” and “Any (Target)” will be added to each fandom nominated.

Sign-Ups and Matching
- A minimum of 3 requests and offers is required.
- To be guaranteed a gift one of these must be an "Emergency Canon" (please see FAQs). To indicate an emergency canon please include this in the top of your "Prompts and DNWs" box at sign-up.
- Assignments are only guaranteed to match on one fandom, one character and one Opt-In.
- When sign-ups close, any unmatchables will be deleted, unless an Emergency Canon has been indicated.
DNWs (Do Not Wants) and Opt-Ins
- When you sign-up, please include anything you absolutely don't want to receive in the "Prompts and DNWs" field on the form. In the event that a DNW is included in your gift, only reasonable DNWs in your sign-up will be enforced. (Please bear in mind that DNWs cannot be used to box your creator into producing a very specific work.) You also must select at least one of the five Opt-In scenarios.
- When creating, you must not violate the DNWs of your recip, or include Opt-In scenarios they have not chosen.
Optional Letters
- "Dear Creator" letters may be linked to in your signup in order to give your gifter further details on your likes and dislikes. These are optional.
