Entry tags:
Tag nominations are open!
Tagset nominations for SSR Confidential 2019 are open from now 'til the 18th! Nominate them here!
Please see instructions below.
• We are using last year's tagset and simply adding to it. (You'll notice the name has been changed to "SSR Confidential 2018-19".) This is experimental and if it turns out to be a headache or we run into problems, we'll go back to doing it the old way next year.
• Here is the list of last year's tags, which are already in the tagset and do not need to be added. Once people start adding new tags, I'll keep a new running, updated list.
• It turns out that I cannot raise the number of allowed nominations once tags have been submitted, so it remains at 6. If you used all your nomination slots last year, PM me or comment with your tags (anonymous is fine) and I'll put them in for you.
• Similarly, if you have more than six, PM or comment with the extra tags you want added, and I'll add them.
• It says "character" in the form, but you'll be adding both character and relationship tags there. Characters can be put in as their canonical tag from the drop-downs. Relationships should begin with "Relationship:", e.g. "Relationship: Peggy Carter & Dottie Underwood." (This is an AO3 workaround to allow us to match on either character or relationship in the same text field.) Please use characters' first and last names (if known).
• "&" = a gen relationship and "/" = a romantic one. You can mix both in one relationship tag, e.g. "Ana Jarvis/Edwin Jarvis & Peggy Carter".
• All relationships must include at least one Agent Carter character, but crossovers and relationships with original characters are allowed. Character nominations are limited to characters who appear in the Agent Carter series only. New this year, if you want to nominate original characters as individual characters, that's okay with me as long as they're compatible with the 1940s Agent Carter world, e.g. Original SSR Agent.
Let me know if you have any questions or issues!

If you're logged into AO3, after you click on the tagset link, you should see a button at the upper right that says "Nominate". Click on that, and it'll take you to the window where you can enter new tags. You'll also need to fill in the "fandom" box for each one (Agent Carter).
Let me know if you have any trouble! I can also put them in for you.

I was going to add more slots, but it turns out you can't do that once tags have been entered into a tagset; it just gives me an error message saying "you must delete all the tags to continue!" which was basically exactly what I was trying not to do!
So basically we can do this one of two ways (and I'm open to input). You can give me the tags you want put in - you can PM them to me privately if you'd rather not have them revealed in public, or just put them in a comment, and I can put them in. Or, I can scrap the idea of using the same tagset and just start a fresh one for this year, which I won't be able to do until tomorrow as I'm about to go to bed. (No big deal if people nominate things in the meantime; I can just add them to a new tagset.)
As well as not realizing that I couldn't raise the number of nomination slots, I think my assumption was also that most people's requests would probably be fairly stable from year to year (mine usually are!) so it wasn't that likely that people who play every year would want very many new tags. If that's not the case, then starting fresh is probably the best idea.
