After a tense week of voting where I thought for a while that there wouldn’t actually be any Journey stories that would get three votes, we have our official nominees as whittled down by you, and my god there is a lot! NINETEEN stories are moving on along with TWENTY characters! I am amazed at how much attention there has been this time around, and I cannot fathom what things will be like in six months when we come back for the Winter lot!

Judging will probably take a bit longer this time around due to how many stories there are, but expect results sometime hopefully around the middle of next month.
While we all wait for that, you guys can stay busy by voting in the three user nominated categories! We have a nice list of worthy nominees below, but your job is to vote for one from each category. I am going to keep this open until the judging is near completion, so vote your hearts out in the mean time! I will not tally the votes up until the thread is closed, so if you change your votes you can edit your first post without having to let me know.
Best Newcomer: @Vivillon; @Rediamond
Best Reviewer: @Beth Pavell; @Flaze; @kintsugi; @Legacy; @AetherX
Best Contributor to the Written Word: @Beth Pavell; @Flaze; @Jabberwocky; @AC-Prescott
And just so people know, it would be VERY helpful if we could have some more judges – most of our judges attention will need to be on the nineteen stories that have moved on, but we do have several characters whose stories did not go on with them and will need to be read on the side (normally, characters are judged by the people reading the stories). If you would like to help out by just reading one or two stories and simply judging characters it would be very beneficial and will stop me having to flip out.
I did double check everything, but in case I missed out on a nomination please let me know ASAP. Judges, report to our secret hub to help decide what categories you will work on.
