I was wondering if authors are unable to read reviews until a certain point in time. I was trying to see if I was left any reviews or not on the site, and all I saw was a big N/A. When I scrolled down the list of authors, all of theirs said N/A as well. Have there been little or no reviews, or are they just disabled for the time being?
Hi Bluephoenix. I'm not on the staff, but I think I can chime in on this
question.
Reviews don't show up for public view until after 1) Everything is
categorized and 2) They're saved as Final reviews. A lot of people write
Draft reviews, which don't show up at all until the writer finalizes them.
Hidden reviews don't show up at all during the judging period, but are
counted in the end once voting is closed and become visible after that time.
:)
As for when Final reviews will be visible, it depends on how long the
category divisions take. I know it's coming soon, though, and personally I
can't wait either. :D
Happy Reading,

Even though the reviews can be posted as soon as a story is nominated, they
are not allowed to be "visible" until "voting season", when final reviews
will appear to the general public. This should be sometime after stories
have been sorted into their subcategories-- I'm not sure of the exact date,
but probably in a week or two, maybe?

Hiya bluephoenix,
I'm not sure if someone has answered this, but in case they haven't:
You're right, reviews entered for the MEFAs aren't available yet. The
first of the reviews will be available on September 1. More reviews will
continue to be posted until the end of voting on December 31, and there
will be a bunch of new reviews posted at that point, too. (The MEFA
website lets you enter final reviews, which are available to anyone
beginning September 1; or hidden reviews, which you can continue editing
until the end of voting and are displayed at the end of the awards.)
All reviews will be posted at www.mefawards.net/MEFA2009/ . Log in (or
click the "Log in as guest" option) and you'll see new links that let
you see the reviews. There will also be a way for you to reply to your
reviewers.
HTH,
Marta

Thank you Marta! My question was answered by others, but the additional information that you provided in your email answered other questions that I didn't put in my post! Thank you so much!
