Last Chance To Vote!

This weekend is the perfect opportunity to read and vote for your favourite fanfics!

Only a few of you have voted so far, so most categories are currently tied.

Find links to all the nominated stories here. To vote, please fill in this survey.

[tuawards]

I'm leaving the survey live a few days longer to see if anyone will break all those ties we have in each category.

[tuawards]

So as it currently stands, I'll only be awarding first place instead of top three since the many many ties would mean we'd basically award every single story nominated otherwise.

if someone could please break the first-place tie we have in the Best One Shot and Best Multi-Chapter categories by tomorrow, that would be grand! 😂

I received a second nomination ballot yesterday, thank you very much! After having a look through I've decided to make a few changes to the rules to accommodate this latest ballot:

Stories rated mature are now allowed in all categories (any explicit stories nominated for other categories will be moved to the NSFW category)

Series don't need to be completed any more as long as the individual stories within the series are completed

I'm leaving the survey open for 4 more days, you now have until 4th March, 23:59 PT

What hasn't changed is that any individual stories nominated must be completed by 30 July 2020 – I'm throwing out any nominations that do not follow this rule.

Please note you don't have to have a nomination for every category! Even if you only want to nominate 1 story for 1 category, that is perfectly fine. :)

Please spread the word, we're almost there!

[tuawards]

Can you consider doing this as fics across all time? I started a submission and then discovered the season bit and it messed with my brain

Well, the way things are going, there won't be a vote at all, and if "Season 1" isn't happening, there won't be a "Season 2" either. So at that point I may rewrite the rules and try again.

But, quite honestly, the interest has been so low until now that I'm not sure it would make any difference and the time I've already put into this worth the while. So for now I'm just going to wait out this last week and see what happens. :)

[tuawards]

yo jsut wanted to ✨apologize✨ that submission got was me being a dumbass! hope the contest continues tho lol <3 gl and have a nice day sorry if i caused ya trouble :D

Oh my god, no need to apologise! I did wonder if I made it too complicated by trying to break it up into "seasons", rather than have people nominate whatever fic they want. 😂

Oh well, too late now. Thank you very much for sending in your nominations! :)
