HP Tarot Award Winners!
hp_tarot Fest Round Three, Awards List
Thanks to everyone who nominated fic and art for awards! We got a LOT of nominations, and I was pleased to see very often the same piece would get similar or the same nomination from multiple people. Also, many of the best pieces were nominated for multiple things - I chose only one award per piece, though.
Before we get into the art and fic awards, we have a few special awards to announce, for Best Commenters:
lotrwariorgodss was the most frequent commenter in the fest, making some on IJ and some on LJ and I *think* not missing a single contribution.
severed_lies on IJ was next, for not only the most comments on IJ (100% of the art, and all but the final 3 fics!) but also many thoughtful and well thought-out comments.
On IJ, honorable mention also goes to kabal42 for art comments.
On LJ, honorable mention for comments goes to angelbabe_cj, who commented copiously on fic and art, and to meghan70 and sugareey for art comments especially.
And now to the awards for fic and art contributions. There are a lot of them, so they are under the cut.
