Hi! Welcome to the Late Treat Bonanza. Late Treat Bonanza is an event that runs twice a year with the aim of encouraging people to finish up late fanwork gifts that they intend to give to other people. While late treats are always allowed, the intention of this event is to give people structure, deadline, occasion, and/or company to make someone a present, regardless of how long ago the gift was started or intended to be made. This event is inspired by happybelatedtreatmas, although with some notable differences, particularly in the way sign-ups work.

( Info / Rules / FAQ )

I'm running a bit late, but the collection is now revealed!

Thank you and congrats to everyone who was able to finish up some late treats before the end of the year, and I hope recipients enjoy their gifts! Note that the collection will remain open for posting until creators are revealed, on 1 Jan 00:00 PST (UTC-8), after which it will close for posting.

Late Treat Bonanza AO3 Collection

Hi everyone!

This is just a reminder that the work deadline for Late Treat Bonanza is one month from now, 24 December 23:59 PST (UTC-8). We currently have 2 works in the collection. Sign-ups are still open (will be open until the work deadline, although signing up earlier is better!).

Also, I tried to streamline the spreadsheet a little bit. If you're having any troubles with it, I recommend deleting any older copies of the spreadsheet you may have and make a fresh copy of the search spreadsheet. And do let me know if you're having any issues with it.

Are you still interested in receiving gifts for events you participated in ages ago? Then sign up here! This is a place where you can indicate which events/fandoms you're still interested in late treats for, and it's a place where interested treaters can peruse old requests that definitely have an interested, active recipient.

Signing up doesn't commit you to making anything, so don't be shy!

If you are new to Late Treat Bonanza and have not signed up before:

You need to give three things: your AO3 username, a link to your requests page in karanguni's amazing AO3 Automagic App, and any other notes you'd like to include. In these notes, you can specify which exchanges/events/fandoms/ships you're still interested in receiving treats for, include links to event sign-ups not scrapable through the above app, specify how you want your DNWs handled, etc.

Sign-up form:
<b>AO3 username:</b> <b>My requests page in the AO3 Automagic App:</b> [this should be a URL of the form: https://autoao3app.fandom.tools/#/everything/search/user/YOURUSERNAMEHERE Multiple URLs here are allowed here if you use pseuds, or you can separate pseuds into their own sign-up for clarity if you need it.] <b>Notes:</b> [Free space you can use to specify things like fandoms you're no longer interested in receiving; which set of DNWs to use if they've changed (the default is to use the DNWs of the original request); other gift-giving events you've signed up for in the past that aren't able to be scraped by the above app (Fandom Gift Basket, Fandomtrees, etc.). Try to keep it as brief as possible!]

After you post a sign-up, I will reply to your comment when I have inserted your fandom list into the spreadsheet and ask you to make any corrections. If you post signed-in, I will then delete my reply shortly afterward so that you are still able to edit your comment if you think of more things you want to add to it (comments with replies cannot be edited, but I believe that deleting the reply enables the ability to edit again). For those posting anon/guest comments, I will reply and leave the reply standing because guests aren't notified of replies and can't edit comments in any case. If you have any corrections to make, let me know at the spreadsheet correction post.


If you have previously signed up to Late Treat Bonanza:

You have two options: You can either make a fresh sign-up comment on this post (using the sign-up form above) or you can reuse an old sign-up. In order to do the latter, use the form below to make a comment here linking people to your old comment, indicating you are still interested in late treats. If you would like to find the link to your previous sign-up quickly, you may want to check out this spreadsheet. (If you are able to edit your original sign-up comment, you are welcome to.)

Please do NOT split information across comments in multiple rounds -- I only have space to link to one comment, so all sign-up information should be contained in one comment, whether that's an old comment or a fresh one.

For old participants, I have already extracted an updated list of your fandoms several days before this round started, and placed it into the spreadsheet. I have also tried to automatically scrape the list of fandoms in a way that reflects specifications in each user's comments. This includes: filtering out events ending after this round of LTB runs (i.e. events for which late treats are not yet possible); ignoring older events/requests if someone mentioned in their sign-up as only being in requests from [year] onward; removing specific fandoms a participant mentioned as not being interested in late treats for -- more info is available at the spreadsheet correction post. This automation isn't 100% reliable, however, so please do take a look at aforementioned spreadsheet and let me know if any corrections need to be made at the spreadsheet correction post.

Sign-ups close 24 December 23:59 PST (UTC-8).

Hi all! Just a heads up that Late Treat Bonanza 2024 (Year-End Edition) IS happening, but I am just running a bit late with it. Under normal circumstances, I would have liked to have posted the LTB info and sign-up posts by now, but I'm running into a few snags with my spreadsheets, which are more up to date, but also contain more errors/issues than I have time to correct manually. So I'll need a bit more time to fix up my scripts so that most of these errors can be fixed automatically.

So basically, LTB will be happening, with a deadline of 24 December, like last year. But sign-ups are not open just yet. I hope to have the spreadsheet issues fixed and sign-ups open within the next week!

Hi all, since AO3 maintenance is scheduled to start right at the time I was going to reveal creators (and close the Mid-Year Bonanza collection), I am instead going to delay the collection reveal/closing time by 24 hours until 00:00 PDT 2 July. I hope everyone is enjoying the collection!

Hi everyone! Just one last reminder that the Mid-Year Bonanza collection will be revealing soon, in a little over 1.5 days, at 24 June 00:00 PDT (countdown). So be sure that any works you've uploaded/are uploading are in a state ready to be revealed by then!

After the collection reveals, there will be a 1-week anonymous period, during which time people can still slip some (late) late treats into the collection. However, the collection will be closed for new works at 30 June 23:59 PDT, so be sure to get your treats in by then, or you'll need to wait until our next round!

Hi all, just a reminder that works for the Late Treat Mid-Year Bonanza are due in two months. We already have several works in the AO3 collection.

If you haven't signed up yet, be sure to do so at the sign-up post! There's still plenty of time to sign-up -- sign-ups are open until 23 June -- but obviously it's good to sign up early!

If you're looking for some requests in your fandom, you may want to check out the searchable spreadsheet of sign-ups.

Happy creating!
