Minor Announcements - How to acquire bonus chapter releases

The Stabby Awards!

Hey all!

The Stabby Awards are open once again, and this year, I hope to win one! Specifically, best serialized novel.

Since Pirateaba has been told "congrats, you've won too much now you can't win any more", I believe I have a real chance at winning one this year. So I'm going to ask you all nicely - can you please nominate me (and two of your other favorite web novels) for a stabby award? Nominations are here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Fantasy/comments/rtoo7n/2021_stabby_nominations_thread_nominations_close/ , and voting occurs later on.

If I win a stabby, I'll post a few bonus chapters, and commission some nice artwork! Incentive for you all!


On another note, a reminder that I take two days off a month, and this month it's going to be January 26th and 28th, at least from my timezone.

I did BtDEM, Journey of Black and Red, and RE:Monarch. Kinda feel like Azarinth Healer fell off a lot midway. But still good company, I might have to check out Sylver Seeker/Beware of Chicken. The animal style litrpgs like Chicken/Threadbare/Chests always seemed like they'd be a little too hard to take seriously though, never given one a go.

I'll have to just vote since I've not been on that subreddit long enough to nominate. Good luck though.

I highly recommend doing it from a proper PC. Doing it with mobile is a pita.

Endoria

I’m planning on nominating Dragoneye Moons, Azarinth Healer, and Beware of Chicken. If I can figure out how to vote…

Julie

For those of us that are social media/technologically inept, that link and website are way too complex. Can someone please make a “Voting for dummies” walkthrough? P.S. Already have a Reddit user account, so it’s not that that’s tripping me up. It’s like asking for a link and too much stuff

Julie

Well, I guess they still get visibility to anyone who checks the rules so it's kind of a win-win

Sean Kenny

Several authors actually. It's in the rules.

I'd argue the point of a writing "competition" is to introduce people to new stories, rather than decide who is "the best." Especailly in writing, where a single prolific author could dominate for decades (worst case scenario) it makes sense to put a limit in the rules.

Avery Aderyn

Uhhhh did the stabby awards really say that to pirateaba? Seems kinda against the point of the awards to tell someone they can't compete smh Understandable that they're tired of giving it to the same person over and over but cmon

Sean Kenny

Well dang I don't have enough mana to use my time travel class so I can't go back and sub to r/fantasy for a month are I would totally vote for you.

I did the same but with Infinite Realm instead of Sylver Seeker.

Brad

You could just make dozens accounts and vote with them otherwise, no? Just a guess I have no clue actually.

Tjark

So MANY pages on a Google sheet.

Sean

Thank you! I was dumb and wrote this post first thing in the morning

Selkie

Need to be part of some reddit thingy for at least a month already. Can not yet deliberately time travel, so not likely. Weird stipulation.

Lowe K. Lyesmith

Never heard of this Stabby stuff, but I filled out the form just to add Beneath the Dragoneye Moons, Azarinth Healer, and Sylver Seeker (in that order) to the relevant boxes and left everything else blank lmao

NethanielShade

I don't have a Reddit account.

Veronica Francesca Davis

Reddit huh never thought I'd be touching that

you might want to mention the rules for the award for those of us not aware of who gets to nominate/vote: "We'll again be running a script to ensure that only members of /r/Fantasy who have been subscribed for at least one month are participating. We will, as in years previous, also be watching for nomination/vote manipulations. When you share links for this year's Stabbies, you must share a link to the post on the sub, not to this Google Form."
