If you do not follow these rules or you break them at any time, you will be disqualified. And yes, I will be checking.

***

• If your story participated in any of my last awards, it cannot participate in this awards. A different story of yours can, but the ones judged in the Champion Awards Season 1, 2, and 3 will not be eligible for this awards.

• Follow my account BTSXPRESS permanently. I am going to be reading your stories, and at the end of the day, whether you win or lose, you will gain something out of this awards. A simple follow is all I ask.

• Follow your judges. Be nice. They will literally help your story if they follow the rules I set.

• You can only enter one story.

• If your story romanticizes rape, kidnap, violent behavior, incest, abuse, and etc. . . , do not even try to enter it. (Romanization means that the character who is kidnapped falls in love with their kidnaper. Or the victim falls in love with their rapist. Don't be like Hajime Isayama. Don't romanticize these themes.)

• Just because you enter a story, does not mean it will be qualified. I will check for certain conditions—like proper grammar, images, lapslock, and Y/N usage—before I accept you as a participant. If your story has excessive usage of any of the things I just listed, it will not be accepted.

• Your story must take at least an hour to read. Wattpad does not give me a word count; all it gives is a time period (which sucks, but I will make do with what I have). About 12,000 words equate to an hour, so I don't care if you will promise to have that many words by the time judging starts. It doesn't matter. Don't have 12,000 words, you cannot enter (unless it is a completed short story that takes 10 minutes to read, which is about 2,000 words).

• One-shots have to be over 2,000 words. And I will be checking. I have my methods.

• If you change your username or title or cover of your story and don't notify me, guess what, you're disqualified. Anything that will hinder the process of this awards will not be tolerated (unless it is an actual emergency, of course).

• You can only enter your own story.

• There are 30 slots. I don't care if all 30 stories are about Jungkook or Jimin or not even about BTS at all. First-come-first-first.

• Your story has to be in English, and it cannot be a translated version of another story that you didn't write.

• I don't care how many reads your story has. First-come-first-serve. Just put your form in first and follow the rules.

• I don't care if you add this awards to your library or reading list. If you miss an update, that is on you, not me.

• Don't bribe the judges, but even if you do, my score will definitely maintain fairness. But still, don't bribe the judges.

• Participants, if you have any qualms with any of the judges or anyone else who is part of this awards, you come to me. If you want to complain or attack someone, you come to my DMs or message board (if you are brave) and attack me. I will not tolerate anyone attacking a judge or fellow participant. If you are so upset beyond reasonable thought, you attack me and prepare to face retaliation.
