Hey guys,

Here is your weekly admin post  this week focusing on stories that are
either alternate universe or crossovers. Whether you particularly like
these stories or just find yourself in a general mood for them on some
given day, I hope this list helps you find stories you'd like to review.

For the list of pieces in this announcement I've used an author's main
category selection. Each author selects three category choices, only one
of which it can be placed in; but the author has still described it as
being suitable for three category choices, even if it isn't placed
there. So if an author selected one of the "genre" categories Alternate
Universe or Crossover it will be on this list.

Finding stories that selected a certain main category is pretty
straightforward. To do this

1. Log in to www.mefawards.net/MEFA2008/
2. Click the "Stories" link at the top of the page.
3. Click the "Show Filter" link.
4. Click the "Clear All Filters" button if you've used the filter before
this session.
5. Select the genre, race, or time period you would like from the
"Genre, Race, Time" filter (sixth from the bottom).
6. Click the "Display selected nominations" button.

This will pull up all of the nominated pieces that selected your main
category as a first-, second-, or third-choice category, even if they
didn't end up categorized in that main category.
