WIPs that become complete.... Posted by Ainaechoiriel May 22, 2004 - 14:07:04 Topic ID# 1051
What to do with stories that were nominated as WIPs but were completed
before Voting Season? This has finally come up with a Crossover that I
nominated. I thought it was WIP, but it turns out to be complete.

I'm leaning toward having them compete as Complete's because you do get to
read the whole thing.

What say you?

I'd say yes, have it compete as a complete fic (though that makes it ineligible
for next year, right?)

Yep and that makes the most sense as the only reason WIPs don't compete with
completes is because they are disadvantaged by not having endings. These
have endings and are thus no longer disadvantaged.

So, categorizers, the story in question is A Rift in the Continuum by
Aralanthiriel, of the Crossover category.
