Fics that have won awards in the previous two Jellies cannot be nominated again.

Fics need to be complete in order to be considered with the only exception in the 'Best Collection' category. Also, individual oneshots in a collection can be nominated for any of the moments, just provide the name of the collection and the name of the chapter in your nomination.
In order to nominate and vote, please register with admin by sending a PM with the subject: 2012 Jellies Voting Registration. In order to be eligible to vote, you need to be a member of the forum who signed up prior to July 1st, 2012. The one exception I will make is that if you're an author that has been nominated.
When nominating, please provide the title of the fic, the author, the rating and a link to the story. For specific "moments," you will need to include an excerpt from the fic pertaining to the category (these are explained in more detail in the nomination threads).
You are allowed to nominate a maximum of three fics per category (you are allowed to nominate one of your own fics). Fics that have won awards in the previous two Jellies cannot be nominated again. However, a series that has been added to, since August 1st, 2010, can be re-nominated.
In the event there are less than five nominees, I will pick the rest to fill out the category.
The number of votes you get per category is determined by the number of nominees in that category. One vote for five nominees, two votes for ten and etc. The number of votes you will get will be clearly displayed in each voting thread.
Read all the fics that are nominated and carefully choose the ones that you think deserve the awards. I know you'll be tempted to vote for your friend's fics (or your own), but try to keep an open mind and stay objective. I'm hoping we don't get too many ties because everyone voted for their own fic.
In the event of a tie, I'm bestowing tie breaking duties to a panel of judges. They will decide who wins. If they feel that two fics both deserve the award, I have no problem having co-winners, but no more than two. If the tie in question involves any of the judges, the remaining judges will break the tie.
Once again, the prizes will include personalized (and priceless) banners which will be awarded to the winning authors/works for each category.
Advertise the Jellies everywhere you go! Tell everyone you know that loves the show about the awards. Get them to sign up on this forum, nominate and vote!
Well, that's it for now. Keep checking closer to the dates posted above and let's make this Jellies bigger and better than ever!
