WE’RE COMING BACK FOR A 4TH YEAR WITH EVEN MORE ENTHUSIASM!
WHAT? — Awards for fanfic and art creations and creators of the Irondad Fandom.
WHEN? — The 2024 Cycle of the Irondad Creator Awards began July 1st. The nominations form link will be posted here.
WHY DO THIS? — Still riding high of the success of 2021, 2022, and 2023 we’re here to showcase the many amazing creators of Irondad content once again. We have had so much fun in previous years and it’s been great to see so many people getting involved by nominating and voting.
WHAT DO I WIN? — The fabulous @monireh is creating the winners prizes this year and her stuff is always beautiful.
MISCELLANEOUS — If you have any questions, feel free to send an Ask or DM.
WHAT CAN YOU DO — Tell your friends! Tell your readers! Reblog! The more people that hear about the awards and nominate/vote, the better. We want all creators to have the chance to shine.
You could run a fic award like the headcanons games you make on discord o.o
Hmmm on the one hand yes, I could think of a number of fandoms I'm in that don't seem to have any fic awards yet, and the game show style I run the headcanon games in would make it a lot easier than, like, a full event with panel selection or whatnot, but on the other hand...
The way I run the headcanon games, they're elimination games, and I'd feel kind of mean, voting against and eliminating the nominated fics?
What could be done instead is letting people hand in nominations and then make one big discord poll via emoji selection to get the highest voted one?
Would be less of a game-event thing of course, but I think more fair and less anxiety inducing for ppl whose fics got nominated.
If you're still interested in the reworked idea, do drop the anon and come into my inbox with the fandom you're in, so we can work something out! Might be a while yet tho until I can organize it, I'm quite stressed with irl things atm, plus there's the @discoveryfemslashfortnight at the end of the month to consider as I'm one of the mods there as well.
Still, thanks for the suggestion! It's been ages since I've really seen fic awards around :)
The following are the 2023 Irondad Creator Awards Finalists for the fic-based awards.
