💖 Follow your judge when assigned in the "Entries" chapter. (Required)

💖 Add these awards to your private library and a public reading list to receive updates. (Required)

💖 Give the awards book (with link) a shout-out on your message board. (Required)

💖 Vote on chapters and tag as many people as you can in the Tag Fest chapter. (Optional, but appreciated, and the commenter with the most people tagged by the time the entries are closed will receive a shout-out on these awards and prizes)

💖 Fill out the "Participant Form" and be sure to look at the "Available Genres" chapter to make sure you enter your story in a genre that is not yet full. (Required)

💖 Your story must be in English. There can be snippets of other languages, but it must be occasional.

💖 Mature and LGBTQIA+ stories are allowed. LGBTQIA+ is encouraged and has its own genre.

💖 You may enter up to 3 stories, but they can't be in the same genres, but I recommend that you limit that number as much as possible because other people should have a chance to enter. (They CANNOT be stories you entered in the previous RGA, even if you've made edits.)

💖 This year, we have Special Awards, such as Best Cover/Title/Blurb, but there are lots of other ones, those are just examples. You may only choose one to enter your story in.

💖 Your story must have at least 5 chapters, excluding author's notes, character introductions, aesthetics, prologues, etc. (comment if you have questions about what is considered a chapter) and it doesn't have to be completed to enter.

💖 Your judge will only be required to read 5 chapters at the least, though you may request for them to read more, but there will be no guarantee that it will happen.

💖 All genres are accepted except Random because it's generally impossible to judge these as stories. Graphic or art-related books are not accepted in these awards. Poetry is not accepted because poems are judged differently than novels. If you have any questions or criticisms about these rules, please comment letting me know if I didn't already explain why they're not permitted.

💖 If you make changes to, delete, or unpublish your story without notifying a host or co-host, you may receive penalties in your overall score and placement or be removed from the awards.

💖 Password is your favorite trope.

💖 Bribing the judges, co-hosts, and/or the hostess will result in immediate removal from the awards. I doubt this will happen, but it must be said as a warning.

💖 Bullying is not permitted in the awards either. Not only will it result in your removal from the awards, but you will be reported.

💖 Be active on wattpad while judging is taking place in case the host or any co-hosts need to contact you.

💖 Have fun, and good luck!
