Don’t forget to come back when voting begins on March 14th!

Hi, friendly neighborhood internet friendly admin here! I'm running a few days behind schedule since (surpise) it turns out that clearing through an enire year's worth of fics on your own takes a lot longer than 6 months with a bit of help. WHOOPS. They're coming along though! Just wanted to give a quick update.

[bugheadfanfictionawards]

I'm getting an error when I try to fill out the form. Do you know it's temporarily down for some reason?

I'm going to level with you. Unfortunately, this is just Google going full Google. I had an error on mobile so went to desktop to correct, but on desktop, everything works fine. (Of course it makes no sense!) The link on the original BFFA nom form seems to be working for both for me currently. Please let me know if that helps. If not, I'll see if I can outsmart Google foolishness.

[bugheadfanfictionawards]

Do you want us to include the author's Tumblr handle and AO3 username (if they're different)?

If you know both & can include both, that would be lovely!

[bugheadfanfictionawards]

Are we limited to nominating only one fic/author per category?

Hi there! You're definitely not! There are a lot of great fics & authors to choose from this session so nominating more than one per category is completely encouraged!

Full disclosure: it is easier for me to read & sort if it's done one per form, but if it's just a couple of categories, it's fine separated by commas! If it's going to be A Lot, I would appreciate another form being filled out if at all possible. Hope this answers your question!

The Ninth Bughead Fanfiction Awards nomination form can be found HERE!

RULES

To promote variety in nominations, a fic & author may only be nominated for a maximum of 2 categories each. If either is nominated for more than 2 categories, the final categories will be decided based on how many votes each category received, and only the top 2 will be selected.

Likewise, each nominated fic or author may only win 1 award each during the voting round.  Whichever category receives the most votes will win the award—subsequent category wins will go to the runner-up.

All fics must have an initial publish date between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2021.

If a fic has been nominated, or won, in any previous Bughead Fanfiction Awards, it will not be eligible for nomination this round.

Nominations through our inboxes or replying to this post will not count. Please use the Google Form only.

Each fic/content creator only needs to be nominated once to continue onto the voting round.

If you bribe your readers for votes in exchange for “prizes,” eg. faster updates, you will be disqualified. Still cannot believe I have to put this on here.

To help with preparing your nominations, a printable doc version can be found HERE, and a pdf version can be created going to file->download->PDF document in said doc! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to send us an ask or reach out to @bettycooper. Thank you for helping celebrate our talented & dedicated community!

First time doing this so I apologize if this is a known question, but, for the nominations, do we have to nominate something for every category in order for our ballot to be valid? PS: thank you for all your hard work you put into this <3

Hi there, @winterlovesong1! Stoked to always see new faces for the BFFAs (even if I personally have left several nonsense shouty reviews on your fics), & the answer is “no you don’t!” It’s stated in the form itself *goes to edit post*, but should there be a category you don’t have a nom for, simply place a —, ???, or a single press of the space bar. The goal is to simply celebrate the Bughead things you loved in the year 2021! That’s it! 🖤
