1. I want to say a HUGE thank you to each and every single judge for the work they did with these nominations. Judging wasn’t easy. It was time consuming, laborious, and arduous. With 90 stories to read and 10 authors to judge, taking the harder route of judging, instead of opting for a voting round was never going to be a piece of cake.

   They’ve put up with my constant nagging and reminders, and they’ve done everything I’ve asked for and more.

   In regards to another voting round, it won’t be soon. If it were, I’d probably have a hard time persuading most of the judges to say on. If I give them a large gap in between the next round, I have a small chance that they might stay for another round.

   And if this were to happen, rounds would also be different. There would be less categories, and less stories in the categories. Imagine trying to read 90 stories, most with an average of 30 chapters to them, in the space of two months. This was one of the reasons why the announcement date was pushed back so far.

   But in the end, it’s been extremely worthwhile, and the quality of the nominations has been excellent. Each story deserved something, but unfortunately, we could only give a winner and a runner up.

   Thank you to everyone who entered this round, and add me on twitter if you want to receive details for future rounds as I will be posting announcements on there.

4. The entire issue with the TA has now been sorted out, and I willingly put my hands up and say I was wrong. They are running a great directory site, and anyone who has an issue with the 'age discrimination' shouldn't attack them about it - they weren't the ones to raise the issue.

6. 11/07/09 - The date for when the winners are announced is now: September 13th. This date is final and won't be changed. I promise!

   Your judges are wonderful to read ALL of these stories! I can see how it would take that long to get through them! Thanks for your efforts!

8. What do you mean DarknessXAnime? Blackandivorykeys is a judge, because unfortunately Leon had to pull out of the panel due to lack of time.

   And thank you BIK. I thought it fit with the title of the awards site!

35. Wow, i was plaurized and nominated for something all in one week. I decided to check this page out todays and see what it was all about. You have so many good stories up there. This is all sorta exciting for me :)

    (Posted on 2009-06-15 12:22:00 by yay4shanghai)

36. I love Evanescence (as most of the reviewers of Facing Our Fears know because I mentioned them so much). I feel oddly connected that my nominated story is on a website that is playing My Immortal. XD

38. You know what I like? Hearing that all your favorite authors are judges, and being one of those judges.

    But you know what's sad? The fact I have like eighty bajillion stories I want to nominate, but cannot. Tis a sad life... Which is why I am leaving this comment. Haha.

    I'm a loser.

39. Try finding some other stories that you've read and thought were special, or memerable in anyway. I'm sure there are lots out there that don't get the credit they deserve.

40. All my favorite authors are judges!! :D
