2009 Volunteers Posted by aure\_enteluva May 06, 2009 - 20:42:18 Topic ID# 9809
Hey guys,

I've been talking to lots of the "insufficiently reluctant" over the last few weeks and wanted to thank everyone who's agreed to volunteer. The awards really wouldn't happen without you.

I also wanted to give anyone a chance to correct any mistakes I might have made, before the awards start. If you see your name where you don't expect it, or don't see it where you've volunteered, drop me a quick line at mefasupport-at-mefawards.net

********************************

LIAISONS work with authors to get their stories ready to compete. So far I have the following members as confirmed volunteers:

Agape4Gondor
aranelgoldenflower
Brindlemom2
Cathleen
Dreamflower
Elliska
Foxrafer
Inkling
Nancy Brooke
Radbooks

There is one other member who may volunteer as a liaison as well.

******************************

*******************************

Banners

So far Elea24, Nath, Nieriel Raina, and Viv have volunteered as banner-makers. If you are graphically oriented and would like to help out, let me know. More artists = more variety = more banner selection for everyone.

*******************************

Ratings Panel

Our ratings panel this year will be comprised of Annmarwalk, Oshun, Raksha, and Sulriel. Thanks, guys!

*****************************

Special Projects

And as always, there are special projects - volunteers who are willing to take on tasks a bit off the beaten path, that are crucial to the smooth running of these awards.

These members include: Annmarwalk, Aranel Took, Dawn Felagund, Elliska, Fiondil, Inkling, Larner, Marta, Nieriel Raina, Radbooks and Tanaqui.

And this list will invariably grow throughout the awards, and may even be incomplete now - I invariably forget someone every year, not because their work is unimportant but because they do it so well the part of the awards they do goes off without a hitch. Thank you to everyone who takes up these tasks.

And I'll be promoting to Blind-SF as well, Marta--forgot to put them on my list.

Happy sixth, guys.
