Hey guys,

I have started the post-mortem over at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mefa-discussion/ . If you are interested
in discussing how these awards can change for 2007, please look at
that group. We won't be discussing changes here like we have in
previous years, because I want to keep this list fairly low-volume for
those people who just want to participate in the awards and aren't
interested in all of the policy debates.

Unrelated question--not all of the award banners are viewable to me.

For example, I went to Romance sector, where I had won a second in the
Romance General WIP section and the other banners were visible, but not the one
for Second Place. Are they not finished yet? Or is something wrong with my
access?

Thanks.

Oshun

Anthony and I are working hard to solve this. The banners are stored
elsewhere on the site and we encountered problems with the filenames
because the system in which the story results are displayed is running
on different software. All the story and award banners were finished on
Wednesday and in some cases the banners loaded directly, but with others
not, like for example in Romance or the Author Awards for some big
categories like Elves, The Great years, the First Age and Romance. I
know Anthony was working on it yesterday to create 'soft links'. So once
we solved that problem, you will receive instructions where and how to
pick up your banners. It's all in the works and we really try to do our
best to get the shineys to every author as soon as possible.

Thank you and everyone else for your patience,

Rhapsody

Hi Oshun,

Rhapsody and Anthony are still working on a few of the banners. Hopefully
those will be resolved in a few days.

It's not just you - I checked, and I can't see Romance/Incomplete myself.

Would you like me to make an announcement here when all of the banners are
ready? *Most* are there now, but there are a few that are still being worked
on.

Marta

Oh thanks so much, Rhapsody. As long as I am not the problem (yet), I am
happy. (I sometimes have my own browser problems and just wanted to
doublecheck.)

Thanks. I know it is such a small thing for me to worry about on the grand
scale of all work that you have done.

Oshun
