An update today to help clarify some concerns that have been brought up to us! :> These updates will be making their way onto our carrd shortly.
Hello, I hope you've been having a good weekend! We come with an announcement and update that will be going into our general rules and FAQ for everyone that is participating, and for any future participants! Touching upon submissions: We were asked how submissions should be done, and our response is that we would like it if you could submit your entries to us via Discord, through our Bluesky messages, through our ask box on tumblr, or via email (giftsofeos[@]gmail.com). For clarification: you are free to upload your entries anyway you want to; we are not wanting to limit how you wish to showcase it (just please respect your gifter's request if they personally don't want it public for any reason at all that is their own). We ask for you to submit your entries to us via one of the aforementioned methods so that we can mark it down as complete on our end! With that said, an addendum to written entries: It's come to our attention that some writers are curious as to what the minimum word count is for submission. We have gone ahead and said that 500 words is the minimum of what we'll be comfortable accepting as a finished ficlet. This word count will not apply to things such as lyrics or poems, which generally tend to hover around an average of ~150 - ~170 words. Same consideration for haikus as they are meant to follow a 5/7/5 format and could not reach that if it is one on its own. Thank you for your time, and as always: if you have any questions, concerns, or inquiries, please don't hesitate to bring them up! We do appreciate them so that we can make clarifications and important updates like the ones above! :> Happy creating!

Currently, our basic FAQ looks like this on our tumblr! (gifts-of-eos.tumblr.com)

We are happy to answer questions and assuage concerns while we work on organizing this event! :>
So what's the goal of Gifts of Eos? Community, really. Helping to bring fans together and celebrate an exchanging of fan made content. Do you have a date for the event? Not yet, but we'll post when we do! Currently discussing and making sure we know how we'll be hosting this. What is allowed in the exchange? Anything that you can make with your hands that is set within the realm of FFXV. Art, writing, music, physical goods as long as the recipient of your gift is okay with it! We are also open and receptive to fan characters within the setting. So if some people would like to say they want their FFXV OC and/or their OC ships, that's fine, too. What artistic skill level is allowed? Creatives of all skill levels are allowed to participate. Will you allow Gen AI content? If you use Gen AI, you're giving both admins and anyone else who is interested permission to melt you in lava. If we find out any of your work was made with Gen AI, we hold no reservations about blacklisting you from the event and any future events we hold. I'm worried about being paired with someone I have blocked. Just let us know when sign-ups are live, and we'll make it so you're not paired with that person / those people.
