Three, two, one ...GO!

Posting starts today!
Yes, in a moment we'll be kicking off the post for the McShep Match with the first two stories.

Our two teams - Home and Away - each selected one person to write for each of the 25 prompts in the fest, and we'll be posting the resulting stories in pairs each day. Once you've read a story, please vote in the poll at the end of the post, which asks you to rate it on how well it fits the prompt and the team genre, both of which you'll see in the header. It will also ask you to rate how much you enjoyed the story.

Ratings go from 1 (low) to 9 (high), so all you need to do is enter a single number in that range into each text entry box. Anything other than one of those digits will be ignored in terms of votes, but possibly boggled at in passing.

Please note that only the mod making each post will be able to see the poll results, and will not be sharing them with the teams or non-participants in any way, so please don't ask how your team is doing! More importantly, please also note that participants are not allowed to vote in the polls. This applies to anyone who will have an entry posted for the fest, so if you're a backup taking part you can't vote but if you had to drop out you can. Team members are more than welcome to point, prod or push their friends over to read and vote, however, and should feel free to pimp their team's efforts as madly as they like *g*

Once all stories have been posted the mods will take the average scores for each fic on their team and from those work out the averages for each team. The total of the final three scores will determine the winning team.

This means it doesn't matter how many entries you either read or vote on - you don't need to read both entries for a prompt in order to vote, or all entries in the fest, as it's not a direct win/lose between each pair of stories and each entry will have its result calculated individually at the end.

Now, on with the posting!

Your mods,

fluffyllama (for the Home Team) and trobadora (for the Away Team)
