Firstly I'd just like to thank everyone who participated in the Treat Much Right Christmas Ficathon. You wrote some wonderful stories, and I think collectively we've made Much feel a little bit more loved (well, you know, apart from those of you who tortured him a bit in fics!).
Just a note to those who, for whatever reason, were not able to post their fic by the deadline of midnight last night: you may not now take part in the competition (sorry), but do feel free to post your fics any time because we'd all still like to read them!
And a note to everyone: the rest of this post is about the competition, but there were people who chose not to enter their fics into the competition and their work is definitely worth reading! You can find all Ficathon entries by looking under the 'ficathon' tag.

link It is now time to vote for the winners! There will be two categories...
Best Fic - please choose your favourite fic for this
Best Challenge Response - please choose the fic you think employed the best or most original interpretation of the personal challenge (the personal challenge of each entrant is included at the top of each entry as 'my challenge')
Rules:
1) Do not vote for yourself.
2) Vote for only one fic in each category, using the poll below.
3) Do not try to influence the voting in any way.
4) Try to have a read of all the fics before voting if you can (they're all under 1,000 words so this shouldn't take forever!).
5) Make sure you are voting for the fic, not the author! (I know this is obvious)
6) Voting will end at midnight on Saturday 12th January. Please make sure you get your vote in by then!
When the voting is complete, I will announce the winners, and at some point after that I will award banners to them. Good luck, everyone!
