First of all, I'd like to apologize to all members, participants--especially participants-- and watchers for our recent negligence. One of our moderators has been dealing with some serious personal matters, and eyesofthenight and I have been unable to coordinate the time, effort, and energy we need to be able to run properly run this community, due to changes in fandom taste as well as real-life changes.
We have agreed that it has been unfair to keep this community open and unfinished as long as we have, and have decided to close. To all interested parties, we direct your attentions to fma_fic_contest, which is a welcoming, active FMA fic contest community that opened a few months ago.
If there are any parties interested in reviving fma_exchange at any time, please contact me at ryuusenka@gmail.com; inquiries may be directed to said e-mail address, as well.
To participants of the most recent round: As of yet, we have not read nor judged your entries. If you would like us to do so, by all means, please comment to the post and we will be more than happy to finish fma_exchange's last round. Otherwise, please accept our deepest apologies for keeping you in the dark so long.
Thank you all, and I hope to see you elsewhere around fandom. ♥
Sorry for the delay, but nothing has really been decided. Consider the comm on a permanent hiatus until Kalliel decides what to do with it. You can post your fics around if you'd like, and if no decision has been made on the current/most recent rounds winners, I will post them by July 24.
Voting was quite close! So congratulations also to our lovely participants: Shimmers of Hope by kambeiadaro (PG; Winry, Gracia), written for dreamer1789
Thank you to all who voted and participated! I'll have fun-filled banners for everyone by this Friday. Please feel free to cross-post your fics wherever you so choose, at this point. (I know, it's been an eternity since these were written, yeah?)
