Hey guys,
Here's a new version of the check ballot. Please check over it for mistakes.
If you wrote a drabble or drabble series, I'd appreciate it if you would
check those categories in particular. I *think* we've sorted things so
single drabbles are only running with other single drabbles, and series with
series. But your pieces may have been moved to a new subcategory - even from
what I posted in the first check ballot.
Since I was late posting the first check ballot, I extended check ballot
season a week. That means you have until Saturday to request any moves.
Voting season will begin this weekend, at which point you will be able to
see the reviews left for you by other authors.

Here's a new version of the check ballot. Please check over it for mistakes.
If you wrote a drabble or drabble series, I'd appreciate it if you would
check those categories in particular. I *think* we've sorted things so
single drabbles are only running with other single drabbles, and series with
series. But your pieces may have been moved to a new subcategory - even from
what I posted in the first check ballot.
Since I was late posting the first check ballot, I extended check ballot
season a week. That means you have until Saturday to request any moves.
Voting season will begin this weekend, at which point you will be able to
see the reviews left for you by other authors.

Hey guys,

Re: check ballot, v. 2 Posted by Elizabeth Nield August 01, 2011 - 15:20:47 Topic ID# 10964I'm happy with the placement of my two ficlets in "Elder Days", since it's been explained that "Elder Days" in MEFA encompasses the early Third Age, as well.

Subject: [MEFAwards] check ballot, v. 2
Hey guys,
Here's a new version of the check ballot. Please check over it for mistakes.
If you wrote a drabble or drabble series, I'd appreciate it if you would
check those categories in particular. I *think* we've sorted things so
single drabbles are only running with other single drabbles, and series with
series. But your pieces may have been moved to a new subcategory - even from
what I posted in the first check ballot.
Since I was late posting the first check ballot, I extended check ballot
season a week. That means you have until Saturday to request any moves.
Voting season will begin this weekend, at which point you will be able to
see the reviews left for you by other authors.
Marta

Hiya Neume,
I haven't heard from her in ages, myself - but we never ran in the same
circles that much. (My loss!) If you know her or know how to reach her, it
may be a good idea to reach out to her.

K. I'll send a PM through OSA. I know she's got kids and a job and all that
usual stuff, but in theory, she's still around somewhere. :)

Hi again from the problem child,
I can live with this placement, although may I suggest moving "By the Lake" from "Drabbles: General" to "Drabbles: Post Ring-War", which suits it better (and, um, where I also wouldn't be competing against myself. *g* But I know that sometimes happens; no big deal). Moving it would also even out those two categories a bit, since there's 8 in General and only 6 in Post Ring-War.

Marta, I suppose that each category has to have the word 'genres' or 'races' or 'times' (depending on the sort of the category) in front of what you wrote here in the list? I'm asking because of the banners-inscriptions. ;) Before I start making winners' banners, I'd like to send you the list of categories (without stories), just to make sure that I don't make some mistake or omit something. ;) OK?
Thanks,
Ellyn

I just checked the site and it said it currently has 11 hours until Voting

Hi there!
It all looks good to me.
Cuio mae.

Here's the final check-ballot! If you have any other changes that need to be
made, you MUST let us know by 11:59 PM GMT tonight (August 6). That's in
just under eighteen hours from the time I'm writing this.

Hi Ellynn,

etc. "lead-ins." It's easier for banners and easier for authors to brag
about what they won.

makers about that. During the PM we decided to do away with the 'genres',

Hi Aranel,
The only thing I noticed that is a bit misleading, is the sentence under the menu line.
"Nomination Season for the 2011 MEFAs has ended and nominations are being sorted into award categories. However, you can still read and review some of the wonderful pieces that have been nominated this year."
That sounds as if you are stopped from reading when voting season starts. That is hopefully not the case ;-).

Hi Chris,
until the awards end.
Perahps I'm being a bit thick-headed, though - what about that paragraph
makes you won't be able to read after a certain date? I was going to email
Aranel a rephrased paragraph, but I'm afraid I'm not seeing the problem for
some reason!

Now that voting season has begun, I went to check if I had any reviews and I must say I LOVE the new site and how the reviews read, along with the wonderful Reply to Review link! YAY!
Only, when I click it, I get: 404 Error
The tricksy hobbitses have stolen the page, Precious!
ROTFLOL! I'm not sure if this is an unexpected error, or if it's too early for review replies? Regardless, I nearly fell out of my chair at this error. Thank you so much for making even an error fun! =D

When I saw NiRi's post, I had to try it out for myself just to get that error message. Hilarious!
But...
Does that mean the missing reply page is evil? Golden? Circular? All of the above? Complete with strange writing that shows up if I toss my laptop into the microwave?
Does it also mean I can finally get around to my long belated dream of world domination if I find this reply page?

Only final reviews are visible, and draft and hidden are not. ;) So, you probably received draft and/or hidden review, but you will not see it until it becomes final, I guess.

When I saw NiRi's post, I had to try it out for myself just to get that error message. Hilarious!
But...
Does that mean the missing reply page is evil? Golden? Circular? All of the above? Complete with strange writing that shows up if I toss my laptop into the microwave?
Does it also mean I can finally get around to my long belated dream of world domination if I find this reply page?

I think it is the "However " in combination with "still". That sounds to me as if it is an exception or boon that I am able to read. But that maybe because I'm not a native speaker.

Just to be clear, that is *not* the case - reading/voting continues from now
until the awards end.
Perahps I'm being a bit thick-headed, though - what about that paragraph
makes you won't be able to read after a certain date? I was going to email
Aranel a rephrased paragraph, but I'm afraid I'm not seeing the problem for
some reason!

Hey all,
The review reply page has been updated, so it should be working now. Let me know if you notice any other problems.
Glad you all enjoyed the error message. ;-)

Re: Review Replies?\_\_\_\_Where is my reviews? Posted by Marta August 07, 2011 - 13:12:26 Topic ID# 10989Hiya Brandy,
Sorry to hear you're so disappointed. As for "fair," we really hide the reviews to make things easier on the reviewers. That way they can enter reviews into the system even if they aren't completely happy with them. The other way I can see handling this is saying you can't enter a review unless you're 100% ready for it to be publicly displayed. And I think we'd get less reviews that way. I know *I* would write them on my own computer and maybe never get around to posting them.
Don't worry, those "hidden" reviews will show up at the end of voting. Earlier, if the voter decides to switch them over to final reviews. Think of it as an extra treat just waiting for you in the future. :-)

I'm trying to do much more reviewing this year than in past years, but one thing I'm noticing is that when browing, stories on my skip list stay on the list, as do stories I've ready reviewed! I thought they were supposed to be removed by default? It's making it very difficult to find what I've not already sorted or reviewed. :(

NiRi
Hi NiRi,
Are you logged in while browsing the stories? Your skip list will only work
if you are logged in.
Stories are not removed from the main listing for you if they've been
reviewed. However, you can use the filter to view only the stories you have
not yet reviewed (in the "Reviews" select menu in the filter).

Hi Aranel,

Yes, I was signed in. I'm not THAT computer illiterate. ;p It seems to be working now, but stories I had placed on my skip list earlier in the day were still showing up when I used the filter to remove my wish list.
//Stories are not removed from the main listing for you if they've been reviewed. However, you can use the filter to view only the stories you have not yet reviewed (in the "Reviews" select menu in the filter).//
Ah, okay, thanks. I missed that filter. That is working for me now.

Hey all:
I don't *think* this is the same as the question about Review Replies, but I guess it's similar. As I'm browsing reviews I occasionally see a red link for "Read the Author's Reply." However, when I click I only see the review. I've tried several different different times with the same result; I've also tried both signed in and signed out. I wanted to ask
A) Is everyone supposed to be able to view this link, or just the author and the original reviewer?
B) Is there something I am missing at my end? (some setting or other), or
C) Is this a functionality that isn't fully in place yet?
On sites like LOTRfanfic.com and SWG, which include this functionality, I have enjoyed seeing how authors respond to some reviews, so if that is your intent then it's pretty neat!
(By the way, lest it sound like I am complaining or asking for this to be focused on, I will add that I'm not sweating the fact that I can't see something at present: frankly, I have reviews I should be writing. I just figured I would bring it up in case it is a problem, and in case anyone else is experiencing it.)

The replies are only visible to the author and reviewer until the end of the
awards, then they will be publicly available. I've fixed it so that link
will only show up then.
Thanks for catching that!

Hey all,
I've set up a discussion forum at http://mefa-forum.fancrone.net to work on the accessibility aspect of the MEFA site. Right now I'm mostly focusing on getting the site working for screen readers, but if there are any other issues, I will work on those as well. I'd like to get feedback on problems you encounter on the web in general, and when using the MEFA site.
You'll need to register an account (it is not tied into the MEFA site) to post.

I was just reviewing, and when I saved my review, all of a sudden, the site displayed, over the top of other text, the fancrone warning that this is only a test site.
That wasn't happening ten minutes ago, so I'm not sure what just happened.
Anyone else having the same issue?

Hi Dwim,
That was me being stupid. I was messing around in the code and forgot to
switch that setting when I uploaded to the actual MEFA site. Everything is
fine with the site, it's just that the test site warning message got turned
on for the real site.
Sorry about that!

Hm. Well, the test site message is gone, but I can't get any of the drop-downs to work now. They'll unfold, but when I select something, the site just reloads the home page. I think something else got fouled up accidentally, or else Firefox is hiccoughing.

//So the Skip List stories were showing up only when you used the filter option of "Do not show pieces on my Wish List"?//
Yeah. I had gone through a couple pages in browse adding to my wish and skip list, then I used the filter and the skipped were still showing up. It's NOT doing it anymore, or wasn't as of last evening.

I mention this in conjunction with Dwimordene's earlier message about the drop-downs not working, in case this is related (although I know that particular issue was solved.) As of some time last night, the menu does not display in its usual black strip across the top: instead, the menu items are displaying in bullet form as read links, *over* the regular page content.
This is restricted to Firefox - everything looks fine in Explorer, but the problem replicates has replicated itself in Firefox on three different computers I have tried (one laptop, two library computers.)
The links are clickable and the site is still navigable.

Hi,
The links all display in dropdown menus for me now, but (using Firefox
3.6.18 on a Windows Vista laptop) they aren't clickable, and when I mouse
over, a horizontal scrollbar displays at the bottom of the screen.
Sorry to be such a bother.

Re: Menu is screwy in firefox Posted by mvoltfan August 09, 2011 - 18:02:45 Topic ID# 11007Hi Aranel:
I'm having the same thing as Elleth, and my Firefox is 5.0. The interesting thing is that while the menu looks all right and I am able to *see* the correct URLs when I mouse over the different links, the links themselves are not working. I think something may have introduced when you fixed the problem with the menu earlier today: the menu looks the way it ought to and drops down as I scroll over it, it's just that clicking the links doesn't do anything.
(The current glitch does not stop me from doing what I need to do as my browser remembers all the pertinent URLs anyway.)

Hey all,
I've made another change to the menu (I actually removed an earlier fix), and it seems to be working for me in Safari 5 in Mac OS 10.7 (Lion); Safari 5, Opera 10, Firefox 5, & Chrome in Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard), and in IE 9 in Windows 7.
Clear your caches before trying the page again (so your browser gets the new code).
If you are still having problems, let me know and I'll try finding a different menu set-up. In the meantime, I haven't had problems with either Safari or Opera with this menu, so if you have either of those available, use that until I get these issues worked out.
Thanks (and sorry for the troubles!),
Aranel

Hey guys,
I hope everyone is enjoying reviewing for the MEFAs. Now that we have
moved away from nominating and categorizing, it may seem that not much
is going on with the awards. In fact, there *is* a good bit of
activity going on behind the scenes - mostly by members reviewing the
nominated stories. It just usually does not recall much in the way of
announcements and public discussion.
I *do* like to write an occasional how-to post. This is partly to
remind you that the awards are going on, and perhaps encourage you to
write a review or two if you want to but had not gotten around to it.
That happens to all of us, myself included. But most importantly, I
want to help answer questions you might have about how the awards
work.
This week, I'd like to talk about review goals. Anyone can write any
number of MEFA votes that they want to; there's no minimum or
anything. However, many reviewers *do* like to set a goal for
themselves, to give themselves something to aim for. The MEFA site
lets you enter such a goal and we even recognize the members who reach
their goals, both at our website and by giving you an icon you can
display. The real purpose of this function, however, is to help you
set a target that you can work for. Many people find that motivating.
WHAT GOAL SHOULD I SET?
This is really a personal question, having to do with how much time
you have to spend on reading for the MEFAs, how long of stories you
prefer to read, and what proportion of stories you read you end up
voting for. The goal should be the number of reviews you intend to
write. So if you predict you'll review roughly two-thirds of the
stories you read and you set a goal of twenty, that means you will
probably need to read around thirty stories to write that many
reviews. It may be reasonable to read thirty short stories but not
thirty novels - only you know what you can handle.
WHAT REVIEWS COUNT TOWARD THE REVIEW GOAL?
Only final and hidden reviews count toward your goal. If you write a
draft review and later change it over to a hidden/final review, then
AT THAT POINT it will start counting toward your goal.
If the nomination is withdrawn, reviews you wrote for it do NOT count.
However, you can re-enter the vote if the story is competing under a
different nomination (i.e., if you nominated + voted for the story,
and your nomination was withdrawn but the story is still competing
where someone else nominated it). You do need to re-enter that review
if you want it counted.
IS THIS A *LIMIT* TO HOW MANY REVIEWS I CAN WRITE?
Your review goal is just a goal. If you set a goal of 25 and when you
meet it you're just hitting your stride, keep on reviewing. Likewise,
if you set a goal but realize you can't meet it, you're not obligated
to write the full twenty-five stories. You'll be publicly recognized
on our site if you meet your goal, but if you don't, you're the only
person who will know you didn't write as many reviews as you intended
to.
HOW DO I SET/CHANGE MY REVIEW GOAL?
Just log in to www.mefawards.org and click "Your MEFA Account Details"
from the "Members" menu. Then click "Set or change your review goal"
and enter your review goal. The process for changing your review goal
is the same.
*IMPORTANT*: The deadline to set or change a review goal is fast
approaching. Please set your goal by September 5. (That's one month
after check ballots ended.) After that point you can't enter a new
review, and you also can't change one you already entered.
Happy reviewing, whether or not you decide to enter a review through
our website.

if you set a goal but realize you can't meet it, you're not obligated
to write the full twenty-five stories. You'll be publicly recognized
on our site if you meet your goal, but if you don't, you're the only
person who will know you didn't write as many reviews as you intended
to.
HOW DO I SET/CHANGE MY REVIEW GOAL?
Just log in to www.mefawards.org and click "Your MEFA Account Details"
from the "Members" menu. Then click "Set or change your review goal"
and enter your review goal. The process for changing your review goal
is the same.
*IMPORTANT*: The deadline to set or change a review goal is fast
approaching. Please set your goal by September 5. (That's one month
after check ballots ended.) After that point you can't enter a new
review, and you also can't change one you already entered.
Happy reviewing, whether or not you decide to enter a review through
our website.
Hey guys,
Dreamflower caught a mistake I made:
still enter reviews! But you must set up your *goal* by that point if
you want to set a review goal through our site.
