Welcome to the first ever Maximum Ride Fanfiction Awards!

To those of you wondering what they heck that is, let me enlighten you. A fanfiction awards is a contest of sorts that honors the best of the best in a decent sized fandom. As the MR category has grown from the 60 stories I remembered it as, to 600 story wide fandom, it's about time we had one.

It's simple. YOU nominate stories that you like. After a nominations that place, WE—meaning the panel of judges Supergirrl and I have set up—will pick and vote for what we believe to be the most deserving of the nominees.

What's in it for you? If you win in a category, you will receive a spectacular banner created by the pretty-much-famous-now Lyrical-T, (or Scribbles Editor as she is called here on to stick in your siggy. Don't have an account at the MR forum? You still get bragging rights, which is possibly the most valuable thing one can receive.

Our judges are:

Supergirrl

Nightwingstar

Me (Myrah)
