The Mission Briefing 2018: Back Row Rebellion

by Papa Bear Awards

The Boys in the Back Row are tired of never being first at anything. Just once, they want to do something first! And a message from London just may give them that chance! It's time for the Annual PBAs. Results are in and posted beginning with Chapter 34! Thanks for playing along! Awards will be going out to the winners over the next few weeks as long as we have an e-mail address!

28. How to Vote

This chapter covers the voting process. Remember, you have three votes in each category, except for Quotes, where you can vote for as many as you would like…

But first please give three cheers for Book 'em Again

who did a great job on the double checking! I couldn't have done it without you!

And thanks to Snooky-9093 and konarciq, the other members of the PBA committee,

Who have helped out over the last few weeks-

thanks, Snooky for answering my million and one questions!

Thanks also to Belphegor and Basketball Kaitlin

who are working on sending out congratulatory notes to the nominees!

And now… on to the voting.

Remember, you have 3 votes in every category!

How does it work to have 3 votes in each category?

An example with non-existent stories:

.

Nominated:

Hogan's Dog

Carter's Rabbit

Klink's Mouse

Schultz's Cow

Newkirk's Monkey

Kinch's Gopher

LeBeau's Cat

.

Voter A just loves all these stories, but having to choose three, he gives 1 vote to Carter's Rabbit, 1 vote to Kinch's Gopher, and 1 vote to Klink's Mouse.

Voter B is very particular that Hogan's Dog is the best story. So, he decides to give Hogan's Dog his vote, and doesn't use his other 2 votes.

Voter C thinks Newkirk's Monkey and Schultz's Cow are by far the best - the rest are definitely of less quality, so he gives 1 vote to Newkirk's Monkey, and 1 vote to Schultz's Cow, and doesn't use his last vote.

One vote per story only…see how that works?

Exception: In the quote category, you may vote for as many as you want – no limits!

As you might have noticed, the quotes have been given a number.

That should make it easier to list your favorites.

As a reminder, here is the link to the eligible stories as given in the nominating round.

(Does not include slash, which may be found on Ao3.)

wordpress dot com /view /papabearaward dot wordpress dot com

(take out the spaces and translate to internet speak)

That should save you some searching on ffnet and elsewhere.

And the good news:

in this round you are allowed to vote for your own work -

provided you really think it is the best...!

.

Your votes can be sent by email to papabearawards at yahoo dot com

or to Papa Bear Awards by ffnet PM.

Make sure you include your name and ffnet ID or AO3 ID (if you have one)!
