"It's a chance for them to take home something."
Found this one courtesy of fanfic_hate. (All hail the LOTR threads! Praise them with great praise!)
So the Mithril awards have come out, and there is some wankiness. However, this particular wanky whine is coming from a WINNER: granamyr, who wrote several winning or runner-up fics under the name of Zimraphel. She's disappointed that she didn't win more, the poor baby, but the wankiest thing is this:
I didn't win any of the Voter's Choice, but that's okay because most of those winners didn't, as far as I see, win in the judged categories, so it was a chance for them to take home something.
Finally, under my nose, the results come in....
I'm not sure whether to be frustrated or relieved, first of all because at last the suspense is over, but then because the results didn't run quite as I thought they would:
"Across Dark Waters": Best Silmarillion -- Runner-up and Best Drama -- Runner-up. I really thought this one would win first place somewhere.
"Finding Courage": Best Action-Adventure
"Coavalta": Best Vignette -- Runner-up. I also really thought this one would win first place. IMHO, along with "Across Dark Waters," it's one of my most original pieces.
"Not For Pride Alone": Best Characterization/Ensemble
"Magnum Opus": Best Characterization/Minor Character -- Runner-up
I didn't win any of the Voter's Choice, but that's okay because most of those winners didn't, as far as I see, win in the judged categories, so it was a chance for them to take home something.
It's nice of the Mithril winners to think of the little people, isn't it?
ETA: Courtesy of the comments, more whining. It was seven awards, not five, and she is SOOOO not affiliated with HASA. Or a whiner. Or arrogant.
