Cool, maybe I'll look you up. Mine is the same as my name on here, but aside from my pokemon fic, the only thing I have up is Hetalia Yaoi, so I don't think a lot of people on this site are going to be interested.

One thing I am annoyed about, is that they removed the bookmark function. That or they hid it so I couldn't find it. I really liked being able to bookmark where I was and go back to it later....

For those that had asked, the changes were made yesterday I believe. The most noticeable change was a VERY noticeable onein the font size that got an extremely negative reaction, but now that the font is fixed, no one seems to care about the other issues that have been left behind. It may just be me overreacting, but I am just a bit iffy about some of the new stuff: if anyone does go on, please let me know if you notice any changes! I just find that there is a lot more spacing then there needs to be and there is a complete lack of colour to the site now with all the blue headers disappearing. They should really make it customisable rather than just going 'Here, live with these changes'. That's something I really don't like about websites: they tease how things are going to look to get us interested, but never actually say "Do you want these particular changes?"

So the awards are approaching once more aren't they?

[Kelleo]

They are? I thought they wouldn't start until April. xP

[Flaze]

Well april's right around the corner now isn't it xD

[NoirGrimoir]

Ah, awards again? I really need to get my ass in gear and finish chapter three then.

[adiosToreador]

Hm. Best excuse I can think of to get myself motivated for chapter 11.

[Flaze]

Well I definitely see some pretty big contenders for these awards XD

I need to keep posting my own things as well. Especially since I'm still competing against SE after he beat me last year. Though I think NG can give the journey fic section a run for its money even with only two chapters. So you'll have to try hard Feli xD

Uhh, sorry to rain on this motivation parade, but the Awards aren't due until the beginning of May. They're every four months now, remember? That's January, May, and September.

[Flaze]

*counts*

Right...I suck at counting xD well it never hurts to give people a boost I guess.

[Kyuuketsuki]

Ugh, fine...

*hands back motivation*

[NoirGrimoir]

That just means I have more time to make my fic stand out. Maybe I'll even have four chapters by then.

There's no summer awards? I thought there were. o.O

Not since 2011.

[Kelleo]

Not since 2011.

Oh, I see. Wouldn't it have made more sense to have awards occur during the summer when many people are out of school and sometimes work though? They'd have more time to vote and read stuff. If I were you guys, I'd have cut the fall awards out instead. Winter brings winter break, spring brings spring break. xP
