Da Judges' Form [CLOSED]

This form is closed. Currently, we are not accepting applicants.

You don't need to enter a book to be a judge. However, if you want to, PM us right after you fill this form to reserve a spot for your entry. Just that.

If your entry corresponds to the same category you'll judge, either the Chief or a judge from the handpicked panel will judge your entry.

Judges are not allowed to vote in the poll.

If you apply and are accepted write this in the form "I swear in the name of my OTP to be unbiased, fair and give an honest score to all the stories I judge."

Just remember. . . the Chief is watching you.

We ask those who have volunteered to also fill it, as it will your confirmation. If you haven't replied after a week this post was published we understand you won't take the roll. But please let us know by PM if that is the case before said date, as the user will get a strike for being irresponsible.

After we close this form we'll open applications for contestants. So don't wait until that day to place your tags.

EXAMPLE

Username: SoarLikeTheWind

Category(ies) you would like to judge: Love is in the air and it's Poisonous & I'm Not a Mary Sue!

Why do you think you're qualified: I've tried sweet love and failed. I've tried sweet love again, and failed. But then I realize that if I couldn't come in terms with myself, my writing will never grow to it's full potential. While following my heart instead of my head, I've eventually grown to love the tragic love stories over the sweet, fluffy one, as well as succeeded in writing what I would consider my first actual good romance fanfic. Along that road of realizing who I was supposed to be, I've also helped my flat (yes that is a pun right there) OC grow into someone three dimensional, then pushed her through the darkest hour in which she emerged from the ashes anew. If you have any doubts about what I put down within this category, feel free to check out the stories mentioned in this part of the form, "Of Golden Apples and White Flowers" and "Life As Teikoku's Manager".

How Long you've been in the fandom: Aproximately three and a half years now, although I've only been seriously writing fanfiction for the Inazuma Eleven fandom for two years so far.

Which seasons have you seen: The original Inazuma Eleven (all of FF, Aliea, FFI) and Inazuma Eleven GO (excluding CS and Galaxy) although I am willing to judge all fanfics based around any season if I am permitted by the Chief. However, it will be harder for me to help you on characters if I have not seen them canonically.

Are you comfortable with stories using the dub/sub names: It depends on the story. I prefer the original Japanese canon names over the dubbed, but I can accept dub if it's only a small cast of characters. I can, however, accept stories with dub names if there is a dub to original of all the characters listed in the wattpad cast list function.

Would you like to offer feedback to the stories you'll judge: Yes! As someone who had their story often shot down within my "growing" stage because of those who wanted to use my Teikoku's manager idea (after all, if a newbie quits before the book becomes popular, the plot theft can then claim the idea with the public's support; also, gosh why didn't anyone think of this sooner, I was genuinely puzzled by the abundance of Raimon's manager and lack of AnyOtherSchool's manager. Besides the point). I can modify the tone I use in my critiques based on the experience and writing level I find the other party in order to suit the help every author needs.

The Pledge: "I swear in the name of my OTP [GenSaku/HakuShuu] to be unbiased, fair and give an honest score to all the stories I judge."
