Important - Read first!

[Admin]

How the "42 Days" contest works:

• YOU decide who's the winner by giving points to each story.
  
  
• Read ALL stories in the contest, no matter if you know/like the fandom/character/author or not.
  
  
• Log in before trying to vote! (important, because only that way you can vote in a poll!)
  
  
• Your vote is anonymous (not even the admin can see who voted, or what each voter picked out), but you can leave a comment or thought for the author as a message added to each vote thread.
  
  
• There are two vote threads for each contestant.
  - Thread one is for the 'technical' part - writing style, language use, characterization, story set up, flow, etc.
  - Thread two is for 'entertaining value'.
  - You can only vote ONCE in each thread.
  - You can give between 1 and 8 points in every thread.
  - The author of the story should give him-/ herself one point in their respective thread. The vote/point will not be counted for the final result.
  
  
• When voting, try to be neutral. Judge a story for its quality and impact, not by if you like the author, or if its a fandom you prefer.
