Re: final check ballot Posted by Anna S. July 13, 2010 - 13:00:46 Topic ID# 10652
Hello,



I had previously made a request to move my story "Uninvited" to the subcategory: Genres: Ficlet: Eriador or Shire, instead of the Silmarillion once, since the action takes place on the borders of Rivendell. I have received no reply, so I'm writing again with the same request - if you sent an email and I missed it, I apologize for the inconvenience. But if there are other reasons to keep my story at its current place, thanks in advance for telling me.

But if there are other reasons to keep my story at its current place, thanks in advance for telling me.

Hi Windsurfbabe,

I remember your request, and thought I had moved it as you suggested -
but it obviously *wasn't* moved, and I can't find where I replied back
to you. You may remember that I had internet connection issues earlier
this week, and said I had a lot of emails to sort through. What I think
happened is, in that rush I overlooked your email. Very sorry about that.

On 16-July the categories will show up on our web page. Just

--- log in to www.mefawards.net/MEFA2010/
--- click on "Stories" at the top of the page, and
--- find your story, e.g. by searching for "uninvited"

Where the website now shows your first, second, and third choice
categories, it will then show the subcategory you're actually in. It
wouldn't be a bad idea to double-check, that your story is in the
"Eriador or Shire" subcategory. If it isn't, email me at
mefasupportATgmailDOTcom, and I'll get things straightened out for me.
But I don't expect any problems; I just want you to double-check to be
sure. :-)

...I just finished running my eyes down the ballot for all of the categories that my stories could fall into, and then compared with the categories to which they'd been assigned. What I found was that every story had three or more categories it could fall into. I could go crazy and try moving them around but honestly, I like where they ended up.

I don't think I *really* realized before just how amazing and complicated the MEFAs are. I've been a pretty sorry participant in previous years but I'm trying to be more active and involved in MEFA2010, and I feel like I'm developing a much better sense of the whole thing as a result. Right now I'm just feeling really blown away by all the work that goes into it.

You folks are phenomenal!

~ Lauderdale

Hi Lauderdale,

Thanks so much for the complement. Categorization can be rather
complicated, and I'm glad you think we did a good job.

But please, no "sorry participants"! No such thing in my opinion. The
important thing is to do better in the future. Good luck with that this
year.

Marta
