Awards 2007 Beyond the Saga Awards: **VOTING CLOSED**

DAILY UPDATE!!

In other news, my carefully chosen color theme looks crappy on this periwinkle banner/board combo.

Zonoma

 

Aw.. I happen to think it looks great in the contrast to the color scheme of the board.

 

Thank you, Juliet316!

AFTERNOON UPDATE!!

It is a smallish update, but there you have it.

Zonoma

 

Just a friendly reminder that noms close at midnight (boardtime) tonight. Don't forget to send in your noms, better late than never!

AFTERNOON UPDATE!!

UPDATE!

Good luck, everyone . I love coming to the ceremonies . They are so much fun.

 

Alright, fanficcers.

My team tried, but we all have responsibilities in the morning and I know you don't want our Real Lives to suffer from staying up too late (most of us are Eastern Standard, making it 1:40 am here). The final lists will be posted early tomorrow morning.

If you see that you are qualified, please DO NOT SEND IN YOUR EXCERPTS until I send you a PM informing you of your qualifying pieces. Rules for excerpts will be contained in that PM. They should all be sent out by midnight on the 23rd.

Good luck to you all in the last hour and a half!

Final update to the lists have been made. Congratulations to all of our nominees and qualifiers for the well-deserved recognition. Keep on writing, ladies and gentlemen!

I am compiling the notification PMs, please wait until tomorrow to send anything in. Any excerpts received before 12:01 tomorrow morning will not be accepted. Please wait until you have the PM in hand and give us today to breathe a little bit. Thank you.

Zonoma

 

Okay! The PMs notifying authors they have qualified are sent out. I?ve already had a case of leaving off some qualifying stories so if something looks off to you (or you did not receive a PM when you thought you should), please be certain to PM the sock!

I look forward to accepting excerpts tomorrow.

Zonoma

 

Congrats, Beyond team!! The hard part is over And excerpts are the easy part

 

Congratulations! You guys did a fabulous job! It is all downhill from here. [facE_grin]

 

HOLY! I've been nominated! I don't expect to win because my writing isn't all that good in matters of continuity, and the fic isn't done yet, but OMG!

But I'm not popular enough to have people vote for me D:

 

Wow...I got nominated. Didn't see that coming. I definitely don't expect to win.

 

Take a bow, Beyond staff! Every volunteer in every era has just done a wonderful job!

 

I think it's already been said at least half a million times, but Beyond Staff -- you are absolutely WONDERFUL! Everything looks so perfect and it seems to be running so smoothly. Thank you so much -- you've obviously put in a lot of work for this!

 

Uhmm... that may seem to be a stupid question, but WHERE can I actually find the thread with the excerpts? There's no link to it here (or I am simply blind, which wouldn't be that strange since I'm already using strong glasses...)
Can somebody give me a hint, please?

 

First we need to create the thread with the excerpts. The qualifying authors will have some time to choose their excerpts and send them in, and the volunteers will have some time to create the thread. It'll appear in Resource when they are done.

 

Well done "Beyond the Saga Awards" volunteers!!!

 

I was absolutely floored at being nominated for an award, and I want to thank all of you involved for all of your hard work. I've never voted or nominated because (true confessions) I am somewhat technologically impaired.

I'm almost ready to send in my excerpt and need some clarification on how to do that. I 'pm' the passage (800 words or less) to the 'sock.' Is the sock 'Beyond_Fanfic_Awards'?

 

That's right Chewie. Or, for a shortcut to PMing the sock, just click here

 

Hello, everyone! Due to RL concerns, I will be MIA the next few days. If you have any concerns at all about the awards and the process, please send a PM to the Beyond_Fanfic_Awards sock where the very capable Team Beyond will either answer your questions or know how to reach me. Do NOT send them to Zonoma because I won't be there to open them.

Thank you and I'll see you all in a few days!

Zonoma

 

I hope you have a nice break, Zonoma. You and the volunteers have done a fab job with the awards so far!


Ant.

 

A friendly reminder from Team Beyond:

Midnight Sunday (board time) is the deadline for excerpt submissions.

Thank you.
