It's that time of year again! Time to take a look back at the previous year's offerings in this section to reflect and celebrate - the Shipping Oscars!
Special thanks to the past hosts: xEryChan, Meowth City, Skiyomi, Encyclopika, Uzamaki Hinata, shadow_shipper, and Water Spirit.
We'll be following the same drill as last year and head straight to the vote. All the eligible stories/people have already been listed out in their appropriate categories. All you have to do is cast your vote. Eligible stories = stories that were updated at some point during the year 2017. That means even if your story was started in, say, 2013, as long as you’ve posted a chapter in 2017, your story is eligible for this year’s Oscars.
How do you vote? Simple enough. Just send me a PM telling me which folks you’d like to vote for. BAM! Done. The deadline for voting is May 1st, 2018, which means you’ve got some extra time to get some reading in even if you haven’t already checked a lot of these out. So please do vote!
And when you vote, you'll get a nice banner with your name and pairing of your choice on it to proudly show your participation:
[sub]Note: Specify Pairing and Colors.[/sub]
I've also made some Shipping Oscars 2017 graphics if you'd like to display them in your signature to spread the word about the competition. Feel free to use them, if you'd like.
Rules
- All General Serebii Forums Rules, Shippers Community Forum Rules, and Shipping Fics Sub-Forum Rules apply.
- Vote by sending me a PM, not by posting here.
- You cannot vote for yourself.
- Vote based on the quality of the work, not on how you feel about the author as a person. Do not vote for someone just because they’re your friend.
- If you have any questions regarding the event, don't post them here. Just send me a PM.
- When you vote, you can vote for as many or as few categories as you want. But only one vote per category.
- You can vote for the same fic multiple times as long as long as it’s for different categories. (Ex. Say a fic was up for Best Multiships Fic, Best One-Shot, and Best Fic - you could vote for it in each category if you wanted to.) Same goes for authors/reviewers.
- You can sig campaign for this. As in, write "Vote for my/so-in-so's story in such-and-such category in the 2017 Shipping Oscars!" or something of the like in your signature, and I do encourage you to spread the word to your friends about this contest but... be ethical about it, kay? Don't attempt to coerce people who haven't even read your fic to vote for it or get your friends to vote for you - you'll be looking at disqualification and a possible infraction for sending unsolicited messages/advertising if you do.
Well, there's been enough stalling. On to the main event! The following posts will contain the categories you'll be voting for and the people up for the awards. Happy reading and happy voting!
