The Great Butler
Hush, keep it down
First off, I must apologize that this is late. That's entirely on me.
I'm going to start by listing the rules and categories used last year. After that, we'll discuss ideas for how to carry out this year's.
The rules:
-Anything posted from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013 is eligible.
-Nominations will last from today - January 2, 2014 - to February 13, 2014. If necessary due to low nomination totals, an extension to February 26, 2014 will be given.
-Each nomination form must nominate at least four different authors/fics. No nomination form may nominate the same story more than five times total, or the same author more than six times total.
-As a clarification, the awards are for material posted in 2013, not older moments in fics that were updated in 2013.
-Do not ask people to nominate/vote for you, as it is cheating and can result in disqualification. And no, you cannot nominate yourself either.
Here is the list of categories. You may enter up to two nominations for each category.
