3) The 50% rule: 3D will accept fics where Trowa and Dorothy are paired with other people as long as they are a couple for at least 50% of the fic. They don’t have to end up together, they don’t have to start together. As long as they’re together and their relationship is the focus of the story, we’ll take it.

4) Chapter your story! No epics in one e-mail, please. A good size for a chapter is, oh, let’s say 50K, tops? ^.^

5) Follow the submission procedure below exactly. If you want to attach the fic, then please put from the title down in before your fic, and just replace the Fic: with the actual fic. This makes it easier to format. ^.^

6) Beta, beta, beta! Go get yourself a beta reader because though you may have the most interesting plot in the world, if your grammar and spelling suck we won’t take it.

7) NO CHARACTER BASHING! If you don’t like a character and can’t write them nicely, then don’t write them. Do not submit any fic where there is veiled or outright bashing of any characters. We at 3D understand that sometimes you need a villian, and that’s all right, but making a character totally OOC just to further the plot and only to bash them and/or further the plot is just wrong and won’t be tolerated.

8) NO FLAMING! Whether it be another author or a 3D webmistress, flames will not be tolerated. 3D asks that if you get flamed by an author archived here because of your story that you please forward us a copy of the original flame. Please do not reply to flamers. Let us handle that. That’s why we’re bitches; to deal with flamers. ^.^ Flamers found guilty will be removed from the archives and warned against.
