Here is the nomination process for this award ceremony:
 * Nominate as many as you like in the comments. The nomination ceremony will run until August 24th, 2019.
 * A category must have at least three nominations to run. If it does not have at least three, the category will not run.
 * The same fanon cannot win the same award twice. That means fanons nominated in previous years cannot win again.
 * Only fanons that STARTED after August 1st 2018 are eligible for nomination. The only exception is "Outstanding Finished Fanon", for which any season that FINISHED after August 1st 2018 is eligible for nomination.
 * Remeber: So that new fanons that have only just started (meaning they are unlikely to be nominated) aren't snubbed for next year's awards due to the rule above, any season that started after June 1st is ineligible for nomination. (Don't worry, they will still be eligible next year!)
 * You may NOT vote for your own fanon.
 * In order to vote, you MUST have a minimum of fifty (50) edits.
 * DO NOT SOCKPUPPET TO NOMINATE. If you are caught sockpuppeting, you will be disqualified from the Fanon Awards and you will be banned.
 * The community may nominate multiple fanon pages of the same author, even of the same series for a category.
 * From now on, if I tie occurs in the final round, there will be a bonus 48-hour round for a vote between the tied nominees. During this time, the nominees can plead their case as to why they should win.
 * You may only vote in the final round if you have read the necessary fanons of at least 2 of the 3 (or 4) nominees.
 * Round 2 of voting will be extended to two weeks so people get a chance to read the nominated fanons if need be. A reading list will be added to show people which fanons are nominated.
 * Voting takes place IN THE COMMENTS.
 * Winners receive the corresponding template on their fanon pages and/or user pages.

That's all. Happy voting! Good luck!
