phanficawards:
Welcome to the Phanfic Award Nominations! This year, we’ve added a fair few amount of extra awards, so we’ve helpfully split everything up into individual categories to keep everything a bit more organized.
You can view how things are split up below, as well as access the links to the google forms for each category of awards.
As the Awards have switched to google forms this year, we’ve limited Nominations (as well as voting) to one nomination per award per person. You will need a google account in order to place nominations, however this will also allow you to edit your nomination forms as often as you like until nominations close in two months time. Please note, however, that though we will not be checking in on nominations until the forms are closed, any person who leaves more than one fic as an answer to the award question will have their nominations form discarded immediately. The lack of character limit is only to allow ample room to fit the full fic title, author name, and website, not to allow more than one answer to be given.
As many of the awards are new, and we are monitoring nominations (click here for more information). Award Categories that do not receive many nominations will be dis-continued when we move on to voting.
This year we are also introducing the Fun Awards to celebrate
the Phandom itself, including awards for Phandom Members, Moments, and Videos! Please check these awards out and remember to nominate to show us whether you guys would enjoy these awards or not!
Remember, each person only has one nomination per Award, so make them count! Be sure to pick the fic that you personally thing deserves to be nominated the most, even if it is a hard choice. Take advantage of the two month deadline, and remember that the Phandom Big Bang fics are about to begin rolling out, so take your time and make sure you’ve nominated the fic you want to nominate most by the December 31st deadline!
Below are listed Categories and the Awards under their form with added explanations to help you understand what each Award is for
