    Under the Male OC category, you've got my Sian Ny (Under Duress) listed twice. :)

    Thanks!

    You're doing a wonderful job, Dur! [:D] Good luck to all the Before the Saga volunteers!

    EDIT: I noticed one mistake - Under Best OC Female, Pretty Boy by Just-Plain-Shmi has an incorrectly formatted link. :)

    Thank-you so much for nominating my story The Reason. I can?t tell you how shocked I was to find that I was on the nominations list. And for not just one but two catogories! :eek:

    But after a re-check I found that I actually posted it on June 1 not May 31 and it's had to be removed from the lists. Ahhhhgggg! It was only a few hours out of being eligable! :_| :oops: (crestfallen and kicking myself) I?d had it written a couple of days before posting as well but kept hanging onto it to check for any last mistakes. Damn my perfectionist nature!

    Ah, well. I really can?t thank you enough for the nominations. :* Please, please, please keep me in mind for next time and I?ll be happy! (unashamed begging) [face_praying] [face_batting]

    Yes, those links are not working and the formating is wrong. Unfortunately, I've fixed and re-fixed those and they STILL won't work. I don't know why. I'll keep at it, but if you see it still not working, please know I am working on getting it to work (it just doesn't like me). lol

    I remember having that problem last year. It appeared to happen when people shortened links prior to putting them in the template, but as it was so random I can't verify that beyond my attempts at guessing. It was very strange.

    Diane's trick seems to work, but if it does not, try creating the link yourself--i.e., go to the story, copy the link from your browser heading, and then create the link again in the nomination thread. That usually fixed the problem for me when all else failed.

    Thank you so much to those who nominated "The Truth Shall Set You Free" in the Epic category. However, sadly it did not have 30,000 words that is required before May 31. Thank you again and I really do appreciate the thought! [:D]

    Jed- your fic does count, honey. It doesn't have to have the alloted words by the dates, just as long as it is 1) posted or updated during those dates, and 2) has the right word count. You are still in the running, sweetie. But thank you.

    Anyway, great job Before Volunteers! It's the bestest era. [face_batting] (So I'm biased and hosted it last year. So sue me. :p)


    Be kind to your volunteers and get your nominations in early. [face_batting]

    I was hoping not to wait until the last minute on these ones. :( But I'm still waiting for an eligibility clarification. I guess at this point it may not matter.

    Well, now there are two of them, but one actually affects my nominations directly. I asked on the Help Desk thread to try to avoid cluttering up this one, sorry.

    1. May I nominate in the Poetry Category an original poem that was posted as part of a prose work?

    2. It says in the Help Desk thread that a story is eligible as an epic only if it was over 30,000 words during the eligibility period. On this thread it's said that a story is eligible as an epic if it's over 30,000 words at the time of nomination.
