IMPORTANT REMINDER FOR JUDGES!  
A large portion of the readers are new to the Games, and some previous judges may require a friendly reminder or refresher, so we are reposting some important information about the RULES FOR VOTING IN THE SNARRY GAMES.

You can find these Rules in our FAQS.


SPECTATOR/JUDGES POLL/Rules & Regulations



WHO CAN VOTE: Everyone who is a spectator and has an insanejournal or OpenID.

You can only vote once, but you can go in and change your original vote right up until the polls are locked for the final tally (just click on the poll, then click again on "Fill Out Poll", which will give you your previous numbers). Other than seeing your own numbers, the poll results will be visible only to Mods.


WHO CANNOT VOTE:

CURRENT Team Dragon and Phoenix Members and Alternates, Snarry Games Mods, and those who do NOT have a Insanejournal account or OPenID (IJ does not support anonymous voting). However, anyone can review and comment! And pimp. Pimp your favourites and your teammates' entries far and wide!

Please vote responsibly. The mods work very hard counting all the polls up manually, and we do not appreciate the extra time it takes to delete Null votes and Troll votes. Thank you.


**IMPORTANT NOTE** The first two questions must be judged impartially. You can find an entry not to your personal tastes, but still appreciate that it was well representing of its genre(s) and/or prompt(s). Be fair when you consider these criteria, and judge responsibly. The last question is subjective; How much did YOU like this entry overall?. Here, and only here, is where your personal tastes and preferences should be part of the judging process. For more info, please see below: WARNINGS.


The Snarry Games always warns for character death*, Under 18, and extreme content. We simply use a format where the warning is invisible, like this:

Warnings: Drag mouse over space if you wish to know: * Major character death. Torture. Extreme violence. Harry is 17 in this Fic, Infidelity, MPREG, etc etc etc *

This way prevents anyone from seeing anything that they do not want to see, be it spoilers or the content in the story in question. PLEASE do not force yourself to read and vote on an entry you would normally not want to read. Please HEED these warnings.

If you cannot vote fairly on a story because of the content that you've been warned against, you should not be reading or judging that story. It is not fair to the author, the team, or the mods, who work very hard to count the polls.

Thank you!

The Mod Squad.

*Character death warned for is untimely, or other than: natural, old age, or having already happened in canon.

Memberships  
Just dropping in to remind folks who may be having trouble getting membership status to the [info]snarry_games for the F-locked NC17 (Art) posts - you must have an age statement or the year of your birth in your user info, because you must be over 18 to view adult rated content. You can still watch/add this community (public posts only) without joining it, if you are not.

Thank you!

MASTER LIST OF ENTRIES!  
Friends of Snarry:

The 2007 Summer Art [info]snarry_games are nearly over. We have just posted the last of a Grand Total of 72 Snarry Art entries. We are very happy and awed by the overwhelming response and support of this project, especially in consideration of our abrupt move away from livejournal, and would like to thank everyone who has been involved. The mods, the Champions, the voters and judges, the reviewers and reporters, the affiliates. Thank you all!

We now move into our final voting phase. We will be giving everyone until Noon, Saturday, November 3/07, PST, to finish their viewing and voting. The polls will remain open until that time, and then will be closed to enable the Mods to begin the counting process. You can also take this time to edit your votes, if necessary. It is easy to edit your poll: you can change your answer by clicking on the poll #, and then clicking the [ Fill-out Poll ] link at the top. Don't forget to click on "submit poll" after you've changed your answers.

Under the cut, you will find the Master List of all the submissions to help guide you to the entries that you may have missed during this month-long Snarry flurry.

Do not think the community will be idle, there will be special treats coming up for you. We were unable to organise our usual closing Games Drawbles this year, unfortunately there were too many things to coordinate with the move. But keep an eye out for other things coming during the week.

We also have new Affiliates to announce! Very exciting.

And now, we leave you with THE MASTER LIST OF ENTRIES, IN POSTING ORDER )

More FAQs - Fanon and romance and angst, oh my!  
IMPORTANT PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT.



We take a break during our regularly scheduled programming to bring you some new FAQs!

This Games, we have the new and very popular genre of Fanon being voted upon by our judges. This has prompted some interesting questions.

How do I vote if I haven't read the story that the artist has chosen to draw from? )

Thank you! We will go back to our regularly scheduled future Snarry Art classic in a couple of hours!
Have fun, and enjoy the Games!

2007 Art Games Frequently Asked Questions and Community Rules.  
FINAL TEAMS, FAQs, RULES, POSTING and POLLS FOR the *late* 2007 SUMMER ART Games )

Snarry art is under fire, as we are all quite aware, and is the reason we are now over at Insane Journal.

There will be NO POSTS at Livejournal.

We have an RSS FEED over there that people can watch. We thank you all for your support during our move to safer waters. That being said, the Snarry Art Games has always been chan-free. Our rules have always been: You can draw Harry [or any character] any age you want, but if you draw those same characters doing anything sexually explicit, then you must depict that character as being over 18. How you do that is the artist's choice.


Community Rules on Chan )

Another legal issue is the question of Photo Manipulations. Walking The Plank does NOT accept photo manipulations for legal related reasons.

MASTER LIST, CLOSING GAMES!  

Original poster: snarrymod

Friends of Snarry:

The 2007 [info]snarry_games Winter Games are nearly over. We have just posted the last of a Grand Total of 64 Snarry stories. We are very happy and awed by the overwhelming response and support of this project, and would like to thank everyone who has been involved. The mods, the Champions, the voters and judges, the reviewers and reporters, the affiliates. Thank you all!

We now move into our final voting phase. We will be giving everyone until 6:00pm, Thursday, May 31/07, EST, to finish their reading and voting. The polls will remain open until that time (feel free to pimp your favourite team during this time), and then will be closed to enable the Mods to begin the counting process, which should last approximately 4 days. You can also take this time to edit your votes, if necessary. Instructions on how are under the cut, where you will also find a Master List of all the submissions to help guide you to the entries that you may have missed during this month-long Snarry flurry. If you are all caught up, enjoy the Drabbles to come!

Do not think the community will be idle, because tomorrow we begin posting the Closing Games Drabbles, as well as some more Champion Interviews. We also have new Affiliates to announce, and thanks to give. Those of you who have not yet seen the wonderful Opening Games Crack!Art done by many of last year's Games Champions, do enjoy.
