Kuro/Fai Olympics Needs Voters!
The Olympics week has officially started over on the the DW version of kurofai! Come and watch, and read all the entries, and don't forget to vote! Even if you don't have a DW account, you can still use the OpenID comment to leave signed comments.
There's an Official Voter's Code, too!
- If you vote on one team's story for a particular day, try to make time to read and vote for the other team's story too, just to keep the numbers even.
- You don't have to choose one story to "win" over the other! If you think they're both 10s, you can say so!
- Be honest with your votes. You don't have to give all 10s to everyone just to be nice. Remember -- everybody's scores will be averaged at the end.
- The voting is out of 10 points. If you're not sure how to award points, you might consider this handy-dandy metric for guidance:
1) How well did the story suit the prompt?
2a) How "original" was the story? (for Canon team, and)
2b) How "in-character" was the story? (for AU team)
And last but not least,
3) How much did I enjoy the story overall?
Remember we need readers and voters to make the Olympics succeed. So come on and do your thing!
VOTER'S THEME SONG - Gotta Read 'Em All
tune by Pokemon, lyrics by aija
I wanna read the very best
Like no one ever has
To vote on them's my real test
To praise them is my cause
I will travel across the comm
Searching far and wide
Each fanfic to understand
The KuroFai inside
Contest fic, its you and me
I know it’s my destiny
review button, oh, you're my best friend
In an opinion we must defend
Challengers, a heart so true
Your courage will pull you through
You write for your time and I'll vote for you
challenge fics, gotta catch 'em all
Every challenge along the way
With courage I will face
I will read them every day
To claim their rightful place
Come to me, the time is right
There's no better team
Arm in arm all win the fight
It's always been our dream.
