fast track closed

Judging to begin!

fast track is now closed! » Thank you to everybody who participated, whether by reading, voting, beta-reading, or, most impressively, writing!  And well done to the writers for getting to this point.  It's not easy to write to a deadline.  please do not update your stories after this point until the judging period is over.  A few people have been asking about things like potentially changing chapter titles/adding posters/correcting typos, etc.  I guess the answer to that is, if you really must, and it doesn't cause a notification to pop up saying something has been updated, you may, but if I've already read your entry by the time you do that, I won't be coming back to read it again.  So, if I read it with all the typos/no poster/imperfect chapter titles, that's what I'm going to judge it by.  (I ought to add, the fact that you don't have a poster will bear absolutely no relevance to your score.)  If, however, you change something and the "updated!" notification does appear, that'll be a cause for disqualification.
