Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehehehehe the winners for Round 1 at the 

bigbad_awards  are now posted!! LOOOKIE!!

This was a rockin round, thanks a BATRILLIONMILLION to all the judges who took part, and busted there asses to get the results in. HEE! And a huuugeo thanks to everyone who nominated, cause without ye thered be no round lol!

Im really satisfied with the judging methods here, and despite it being waaay more time consuming, having it anonymous really does seem to make a difference. :D HEE!! It focuses purely on the quality of the fic, and not so much on who wrote it. So yay!! 

NOTE 1: The judges have to fill out judging form, from which the results are toted up. The form is broken down into different sections, like for example: spelling; characterisation; plot; scene description etc. So, if anyone would like to see their form, i can email it out. This is PURELY to enable writers/manippers to see the areas their fic/pic did well in, and areas that need improvement. Its purely for  concrit purposes, so the names of the judges and the scores of the other entrants will NOT be given out, just your own score. 

NOTE 2: Some judges kindly gave judges comments (it was an optional..er.. option) So these will be emailed to the relevant people tomorrow :D 

NOTE 3: If theres any broken links or wrong usernames, both on the awards and in the links, Pleeeeeeeeease let me know, mistakes do happen. >.< Ill fix them no problem.

Just email me if youd like to see it :D

CONGRATULATIONS EVERYONE!!!

Wheeeeee ok guys, the problem with the nomination form is now fixed! YAY! Turns out it wasnt the form itself, but shitty hotmail that was.. well.. shitty!   *does the Glare of Death* 

We've now changed the email addy to gmail *pets it, listens to it purrrr* and so everything is working grandeous again. 

So, again i say, IF YOU DID NOT RECEIVE EMAIL CONFORMATION FOR YOUR NOMINATIONS WE DID NOT RECEIVE THEM. 

Im reeally sorry about that, but yeah, chances are some nominations were lost before we noticed the problem. Please please re-submit your nominations if you didnt get the thank you conformation email. :D 


Thanks guys, and keep nominating! Theres spots what need a-fillin! heeee!

~

Hey guys! 

This form is here as a backup should the main form fail.

IF YOU HAVE SENT IN A NOMINATION AND NOT RECEIVED A 'THANK YOU' EMAIL, WE HAVE NOT GOTTEN IT.

If youve not gotten the confirmation email, could you resubmit it to this post? It would be MUCH appreciated. 

Please only use this method if the form has failed for you though, as this is not the easiest way for us to keep track of nominations, and is WAY more awkward for ye to nominate this way. rar! Feckin html i swear!

~~ Judging Rules ~~

++ Well, please be as unbiased as you can. Efforts will be made to keep the nominations as anonymous as possible as this places all writers on the same level before the judging begins. So please try not to look for loopholes hehe. 

++ Please check out the general rules HERE.

++ Judges can not nominate, or be nominated for the categories theyre judging for, but can be in any other category.Judges can not nominate, or be nominated for the categories theyre judging for, but can be in any other category.

++ Judges will receive anonymous word documents for each fic to be judged, as well as a form for filling out the results.

++ The nominations will be judged by a rating system of 1 to 5:
1 = poor
2 = average
3 = good
4 = very good
5 = excellent

for the following skills for fiction:
1) Spelling/Grammar.
2) Adherence to category guidelines.
3) Continuity
4) Plot
5) Characterisation.
6) Originality.
7) Scene discription and visualisation.
8) Overall quality of writing/enjoyment

For artwork:
1) Composition 
2) Technical skill
3) Use of colour/text
4) Characterisation
5) Originality

The average of all the judges workin in that category will then be calculated. If a tie breaker occurs, a third separate judge will be asked to look at both and make the final decision.

Any queries? Let myself or 

kayt_arminta know :)
