Fic Talk > Felix Awards 2011
Exit Survey
mare:
Those categories made the awards feel more like junior high yearbook lol we decided to just keep it general genre and author and so much easier for the two of us to work with as well.

Another suggestion in the exit survey was to open Felix up to all stories, not just those on AC. I'm hesitant to do that, admittedly. If someone can give me a good argument I would consider it but it really changes things. I'm not particularly interested in doing a bunch of work to support someone else's site. The purpose of things like this are to generate interest in AC and bring writers/readers to our forum and our site.
If someone wanted to do a general fanfic awards all the power to them but they are a lot of work and I think considering the posting rules we have in place for AC we're really ensuring that we get quality nominations with a strong fan base. I think I can speak for Mare when I say opening it up isn't really in the cards right now.
That being said, anyone could easily post their story on AC as well as their own site and it's instantly eligible.

I liked the author awards for each genre category... that definitely opened it up to a wider variety of people winning for their writing ability and overall body of work, not just an individual story.

I liked the author awards in each category as well.
In general, I just really liked how simple and easy to follow the awards were this year. The categories that focused on genre and authors made it much easier to do nominations for. I found that in previous years when I was doing nominations there was a lot of duplication between the categories. It was difficult to split stuff out. This was simple and to the point - I liked that a lot.
