FANTASY & SCI-FI CATEGORY

🌟 jigamaree 🌟

jigamaree , or Ree, loves to read and write fantasy and science fiction. She's kind of obsessed with grammar, but if the story's good enough, she'll put up with mistakes. Her favorite stories have compelling characters, unique plots, and maybe a bit of humor - but if somebody can write a great story with bland characters and a generic plot line, she'd be more than happy to read that, too!

🌟 xDRAG0N0VAx 🌟

Jessica (or xDRAG0N0VAx whichever y'all use) has a Bachelor's in English so she knows what how a good story should be (grammar, character development, plot, story flow and pacing, etc). So, if she gives you a low scoring, don't say she doesn't know what she's talking about - she does. She promises to be gentle in her constructive criticism, but she DOES NOT appreciate horribly cliched stories, so if you have such one, you have been warned.

🌟 ImaMariah 🌟

ImaMariah  is an 18 year old wattpad addict and had been reading on wattpad for almost 6 years. Her favorite genre is Fantasy. She found books with LITTLE to no typographical and grammatical errors interesting and MORE FUN to read. If the writer is not particular to those errors, then she will KEEP ON READING it to check out if the story is good. Books, with an interesting character development and plot twists, are what this judge is looking for, because in her opinion, it was the most important element in fantasy books. She gives more love to novels that use a wider vocabulary to describe the world, where the MC is in, and for character descriptions to help her get a good grasp on what was happening inside the story.

🌟 Cristalina_Starr 🌟

Cristalina Starr is a Science Fiction, Fantasy, Adventure, Romance, Mischivious character lover, and Otaku. But she'll be happy to read a few chapters of anyone's works. She loves to read works by new and devoted writers on Wattpad, (Since she's one herself.) She's not a grammar Nazzi, and a few mistakes here and there won't bug her if the plot and story are good, but she will point out errors made. Something that bugs her is when a story is written in a confusing tense manner, like when you are writing in past tense, and you suddenly change to present tense.
'She WAS walking over the hill and TRIPPED on a rock, which MAKES her roll all the way down.'
She will immediately correct errors such as those. She finds them, and not forgetting correct punctuation when it comes to EXCLAMATION, and QUESTION marks, annoying, and highly confusing. But besides all that, she promises she will do her absolute best to judge fairly, and give helpful advice. Peace! ✌️

🌟 MasterofSystem 🌟

MasterofSystem love reading. She love to read novels, books, stories, and just about anything and everything. When she read, she make sure to finish it and comment if someone ask for it. And most importantly, MasterofSystem is a grammar nazzi, but at the same time, she doesn't really care. MasterofSystem also doesn't care if a story is cliche or not, as long as they are good. Finally, MasterofSystem is a lover of anything that she likes and a hater of anything that she hates. FYI, MasterofSystem has great imagination and ideas.

🌟 Alpheus_Alpha 🌟

Alpheus_Alpha  is not that much of a harsh critic. He does have a pet peeve about spelling and grammatical errors, but as long as the plot is interesting, he's okay with it. If the book he's reading is not a page turner, or if it's something cliché where he can predict the outcome, then he will not like it very much. Likes to read, and really likes it when the story follows a certain uniform structure with the paragraphs, especially during dialogue that when another person speaks it should be seperate from the paragraph. Otherwise it looks really sloppy. As an aspiring writer himself, he understands the pain of other writers and that one typo you just couldn't find even after previewing it 1,836,290,746,493 times. With that said, a judge of humble beginnings with great expectations...

She enjoys books with tragic reality and ones with true powerful emotions. She's not too strict about grammar. She understands that we make slip-ups sometimes, so if she sees two to three mistakes a chapter (considering it is the average of 2k words) she'd overlook it, more than that, and you're semi-screwed. Cliche stories are the worst things you could give her to read. If it's a cliche, you're mostly screwed. Just know that she would like like to find that one book that deserves that first place prize, because she have hope for the contestants of Phoenix Wars. She hope you don't get screwed by her!
