Hey all, I've been getting some questions that I think everyone should see and know the answer to.

Q: How many books can we expect to judge?

A: Since there is no set number of slots for each category, it will vary depending on category. Say a judge has signed up for the Taehyung category, which has about 17 books total and only 3 judges, each judge will get 6 books. (Even though it's an odd number of books, I will make sure every judge has an even number. Books that have two scores will be averaged and the number that comes from that will be the final score.) Say that same judge has also signed up for Ships category that has 20 books and 5 judges, resulting in 4 books each. Now the judge has 10 books to judge in total.

Q: What's the difference between BTS as a Whole and Ships?

A: BTS as a whole has a plot with BTS but does not ship members together and if it does, it doesn't take up the entire story. Ships is a book about member x member and their relationship only, sure some side plots exist but it's mainly about the ship.

Q: How sensitive is sensitive content?

A: Absolutely no detailed scenes of: rape, suicide, traumatic events such as molestation or hardcore abuse. There can be mentions but ONLY mentions and no detail at all. 

Q: Can we enter one book into 2 categories?

A: Yes, that is fine

Q: Does 5 chapters include author notes and introductions?

A: 5 chapters of actual content but introductions are fine, authors notes do not count.

Q; Can we follow with back up accounts?

A: Of course!

These are all of the questions I have received but if you have something you think I should add to the list, please let me know as soon as possible ^^

If you are a participant in any other awards, please pm me the name and I will work out some way for these awards to gain more exposure ^^ I have also been updating other awards on the message board and there is an entire reading list of open awards if you are looking ^^

I think that's it! Thank you all for participating and if you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask at any time :)
