All four of our Parsec entries were selected as finalists

Okay, since a few of you requested I post what we submitted, here you go:

Title Fight - Best Novella

     The Tank - Best Short Story

             The Crypt: Book One - Best Anthology

                    Infected - Best Novel

That's all we got nominated for this year. I was surprised no one nominated Kissyman & the Gentleman or any of the other eligible Crypt stories. Cest la vie. Made my job fairly easy this year Tongue out

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The thing I really need y'all's help on is your favorite scenes from INFECTED. It's the only story that's been confirmed as eligible for a Parsec award thus far. It's a long story, don't worry about it. Point is, we know it's in so I can start working on it. And if someone could nominate it for Long Form that would be awesome.

What I'm looking for is up to 6 scenes (I'll probably use 4) totalling not more than an hour which demonstrate how awesome the podcast/book is. Can you help me out? Junkie army HO!

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Parsec Promo #1                   Parsec Promo #2                No idea if JC and Scott are going to do one this time around.

OJ's you know the drill. 2J's may or may not. 3J's almost certainly don't. So let's review:

Please go to the Parsec Awards site and nominate the FDO's stories you liked which were originally podcast between May 1st, 2009 and April 30th, 2010. You can find category descriptions and eligibility requirements there as well. Be warned that they have mixed things up a bit. If you want the cliff notes version (not 100% accurate), Scott's novels go in Long Form, everything else goes in Short Form. They've changed the divisions to look like this:

Audio lenth of:

  • < 2 hours = Short Form
  • > 2 hours but < 7 hours = Novella Form
  • > 7 hours = Long Form

Miscellaneous notes:

  • If something has more than two voice actors, it gets tossed into the audio drama brackets. I don't think Scott had anything like that this year. I might be wrong.
  • THE CRYPT is not a book (Long Form) for Parsec purposes. We began entering the stories independently so we'll finish up Book 01 that way. Nominate every story as a short (unless one tops 2 hours, but I don't think any do). If you want to nominate it for Anthology go ahead (it fits the criteria), but I don't want it competing against INFECTED in Long Form

I really like the detached coldness of the fatty Patty scene, The way he just sits there and watches it like a kid watching ants burn! Its just got a creep factor for me there is no humanity in it!!

I still like the scene in the bathroom in which Perry pulls out the (I think) the first triangle. Then the damn thing wiggling on Perrys wrist! The sound it made when it came out and it spatting on the mirror. Ewwww!

Please keep offering your favorites Junkies! We want our submission to be the best it can be. Long Form is the major Parsec category we have NOT won yet.

    But (no pun intended) I laugh everytime I think about Perry showing the ruler to the triangle on his butt!

    Showing the map and ruler to the triangle, or -- when he fries it on the burner! Bet that smelled lovely!

    paralleling it to the early scene at the bar when Perry is talking about how he would have never made it w/o Bill.

    It was an excellent triangle removal scene, followed by the triangles 'thinking' for the first time, and then the FEED US scene. ----------------------------------------------------------

    Maybe they can find the video sprites and divert them *prior* to the banquet Wink I still haven't seen any of the footage that was shot (?) from 2008 or 2009. Those goblins succeeded in jinxing TwoWire last year. He was my secret weapon, but the little pixies sabotaged his equipment via his brother Cry

    I have to say that would be very cool for me if that one won, since I was KISS(ed) by the FDO in that one!!!  Still can't get over the fact that my name was used in a story.  That is just very exciting!

    I guess people either didn't like the other ones or didn't understand the way the nomination process works.

    Isn't that a good enough reason to nominate a story?
