omgitskandiceAlso, I noticed that only about two or three stories that have been nominated were complete, so we aren't going to have a special section for that for this round. | #103 Dec 29th 2008, 4:37pm | |

Writer AmyPlease don't take this wrong. I know all of the other judges are on christmas break from school and I'm the only one that's at work. I was wondering if anybody would mind moving the deadline back a week. I'm not sure I can have it read by thursday. I'm halfway through How High (and Kandice, it's gotten better since I last PM'd you- thanks for not letting me give up on it), I'm 1 chapter in to Bella the Nymphomaniac vampire slayer which isn't very long and I haven't touched Of Dragons and Men yet unless one of the other judges is looking for something to read. I'm gonna read as much as I can tonight but I do have to be gone by 7:20a and I work all day. I have half day Wed and I'm betting we're doing inventory Thurs. Inventory sucks, I'd rather be reading. I'll do what I can. Ask me in Feb if I'm willing and have the time. | #104 Dec 29th 2008, 6:06pm | |

omgitskandiceI know it's hard, but the date hasn't changed since you joined. I know that the last minute nominations probably threw you off, as it did with everyone. I'm sending a list out of all the stories each judge was supposed to read. If you need the extra time, you can finish the stories by saturday night, but the nomination page will still close and the winners will still be announced on January 4th, most likely in the evening. If you can find a judge willing to read your story, please do. If you can't, I can read it. I'm pretty free all day. But I haven't read someo f the other entries in that category. Note to all judges: I am working on Pacific Standard Time so that should give you all a couple extra hours. | #105 Dec 29th 2008, 6:15pm | |

Laura LopezGuac: I beleive that author said that the newer version was more edited or something like that. so either way, I don't think the story changed, if anything, ask the author which they would prefer you to read. Omgitskandice: I would love as much as Amy if we could have an extended week. I have about 2 days to read a few more chapters of Darkness Run, not close to finishing but that story seems to not have it self outlined so greatly that it's just an ok read right now. I still need to go over Canislupis, and I would love to have more time to go back and read more of Earthbase 12. But I get that this all HAS to be on a deadline. I would have done everything on time and everything, but it's not easy when you are fighting for computer time with your own mother. lmao These stories are so freaking LOOOOOOONG!!!!! lol | #106 Dec 30th 2008, 5:43am | |

A. J. L. RobertsI pretty much read everything on the nominations website on the Supernatural/Romance category, to which I was assigned. I didn't get given a subcategory, so I just read everything and categorised it. Below is a list of everything I've already judged and my decision. Crave By Alice B. Black (Nominated for Supernatural/Romance in Best All-Around) I didn't pass this because of similarities to Twilight and also because of poor spelling and grammar Breathtaken (previously Hush) by Arianna Sterling (Nominated in Supernatural/Romance in Best Plot) I agreed with the nomination to go on To Interrogate a Vamipre by Elladora Black (Nominated in Supernatural/Romance in Best Written) Again, I agreed for the nomination to go on Of Dragons and Men by PB Arcadia (Nominated in Supernatural/Romance in Most Memorable Characters) Agreed with the nomination to go on Sidhe + Mortal: A Novel by PB Arcadia (Nominated in Supernatural/Romance in Best Plot) I agreed with the nomination Bad Moon Rising by The Burning Roses (Nominated in the Supernatural/Romance in Most Memorable Characters) Agreed with the nomination I'm going to read my way through Once Bitten, Amaranthine, Darkness Run and Dangerous Game even though I only just go them on my list, and I'll let you know asap. | #107 Dec 30th 2008, 6:40am | |

A. J. L. RobertsWhose Once Bitten by? | #108 Dec 30th 2008, 6:42am | |

A. J. L. RobertsI've started reading Darkness Run by Love is A Ring Toss game. It has an interesting plot, and if I was to go through with the nomination, It would be Supernatural/Romance in Best Plot. A few problems with the spelling, grammar and the point of view, but I'll give it a few more chapters before I make a verdict. | #109 Dec 30th 2008, 7:17am | |

I. DegolierA. J. L. Roberts: Once Bitten is by mandybeth. It's at http://www.fictionpress.com/s/2364561/1/. Amy Strauch: I've read both Of Dragons and Men and Bela the Nympho Vampire Slayer, so if you can't get to those ones in time they're still covered. :-) I think the Slave of Heaven is the only one I haven't finished yet on my list. I've gotten far enough through it to say send it to the next round, but I still have a few chapters left. | #110 Dec 30th 2008, 8:04am | |

omgitskandiceHello everyone! This is to readers and judges alike, becuase of the popularity of this project, I've decided to extend the judging deadline to give the judges a break. The nominations will still close tomorrow at midnight, PST, the winners will now be announced Friday, January 9th, late evening. Judges: Because of the extension, please read every story on the list that I provided for each of you, unless you are positively sure that it doesn't belong on your list (if that ts the case, please tell me about it). Hopefully, this will give everyone some time to sort through everything. AJL Roberts, I understand that you have a lot on your list that you weren't aware of, if you need me to read any of it, I'd be willing. | #111 Dec 30th 2008, 4:55pm | |

omgitskandiceNow that this topic is locked, please use the open topic "Awards will be in July" if you have questions or posts that you want others to see. It will only be in use until I open a new thread for Season 2. Winners will not be posted in this thread but rather the Winners thread that I plan to post on January 9th. The new Rules and FAQ thread applies to the second season, please see the FPSSA website for complete details. Judges: I need 4 to 6 judges for the next round. I will assume that none of the current judges are continuing until told otherwise. It's on a first come first serve basis, once the six spots are filled, that will be it. Please contact me anytime before the second season which is tentatively scheduled for mid- to late-february. |
