Hello everyone and welcome to The Seventh Bughead Fanfiction Awards! The eternal hiatus may be upon us, but our fanon creators have been generous in their offerings, supplying fandom with a much needed fix of our favorite characters (and some quality escapism). We are excited to give our thanks and celebrate some of the best authors, fanfics, and overall creators in our community. This round, the awards are being brought to you by @theheavycrown, @smugheadjonesthethird, & @bettycooper with clutch assistance from @arsenicpanda. Now, on with the show!
To promote variety in nominations, a fic & author may only be nominated for a maximum of 2 categories each. If either is nominated for more than 2 categories, the final categories will be decided based on how many votes each category received, and only the top 2 will be selected.
Likewise, each nominated fic or author may only win 1 award each during the voting round. Â Whichever category receives the most votes will win the award - subsequent category wins will go to the runner-up.
All fics must have an initial publish date between January 1, 2020 and June 30, 2020.
If a fic has been nominated, or won, in any previous Bughead Fanfiction Awards, it will not be eligible for nomination this round. The full, updated list of past winners can be found here.
Nominations through our inboxes or replying to this post will not count. Please use the Google Form only.
Each fic/content creator only needs to be nominated once to continue onto the voting round.
If you bribe your readers for votes in exchange for âprizes,â eg. faster updates, you will be disqualified.
