THE 9'TH LIBRARY OF MORIA CHALLENGE;

PLEASE READ, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT! ; The challenge will undergo some changes, one of them being moved to the librayofmoria domaine. And then some, i will keep you guys informed of the changes. And so there will not imidiatly be another challenge as this one ends, please note the very short voting period, for the same reason.

Untill then :)


General rules; these rules apply for any entry, and for every challenge. Do not break these, it will be muchly frowned upon, and please, please do take the time to read them.

*Every entry must be made for the challenge, and not some old stuff from your hard disk, this will disqualify you.

*Please vote in every category, I will not count your vote if you didn't.

*A HET (heterosexual) pairing will disqualify you.

*From when you send your entry to me, until the challenge is over, you cannot upload your entry anywhere, you are free to advertise this site all you want, but you must link to this site http://www.forgottenjuliet.net/lomchallenges.htm and never to a fic.

*In order to vote fairly, you have to read all the entries from the challenge.

*Please remember to fill out the regular authors form that you find further down when you submit anything, and please do remember to state the pairing and rating on a challenge fic.

*Send your submission as a .doc, .rtf, or .txt file attachment, never ever in the name of all the nifty slashable bishies in the world, do you send it as the body of the mail, this will actually disqualify you, but at least trigger an 'do it again, and this time attach the damn thing' email from me, your humble challenge dominatrix.

*Crossovers are never allowed and will disqualify you, OC pairings the same, if only one of your major pairing is OC then it is accepted. This is part of a LoTr slash community, and therefore only LoTr & Silmarillion based stories are allowed.

PLEASE READ ALL THE INFORMATION BEFORE VOTING:


What was this challenge about then?

This is the 9'th challenge from the Library of Moria, and is also known as the 'SIBLING RIVALRY' challenge. The name really should say it all shouldn't it? But to be sure I made myself absolutely clear, it can be two siblings, stepsiblings, or twins fighting over the same lover. Or it can of course also be interpreted as incest, as in the siblings fight to win each other. You decide!

Remember AU is allowed, this means that you can make someone siblings even if they aren't according to canon, ex. Frodo and Marry suddenly finds out they have the same father, or Faramir is the brother or Elrohir & Elladan.

But if you do this, you must make a bullet-proof plot, and a reasonable explanation as to why it is so.


THE VOTING CATEGORIES:

*Best overall

*Best sibling "fight"

I might add that the reason there are only two categories this time, is because then i had some advice to cut down on the categories to not make this so darn confusing, plus i was on the verge of calling this challenge off because there are only five entries, and the last contest had like the lowest rate of voters, i think only one that was not an actualy author of one of the stories voted! so please just freaking vote man!


THE ENTRIES:

Both have fallen

Pippin/Boromir, Pippin/Faramir, Boromir/Faramir implied.

All’s Fair in Love, War and Football

Sons of Gondor with a King thrown in for good measure

Best Three Falls, No Gouging

Éomer/Éowyn, Merry/Pip

My Brother

Faramir/Aragorn, Faramir/Boromir, Boromir/Aragorn (last two only implied)

Dearest Brother

Boromir/Faramir


Deadline for voting in the 9'th LoM challenge; the 1'st of october.


Alright I want to give my vote:


Then you send it to me (azofmoria[at]gmail.com) and remember to write 'SIBLING RIVALRY VOTE' in the subject line. You will receive an email back from me when I receive your mail.



And then? (in general, what will happen to my submission)

All fiction here will from now on be uploaded automatically to LoM archives. When the voting has ended and the banners have been sent to their rightful owners.

When the winners are announced I will upload the banners to this site, and of course also announce them to the LoM forum, the LoM LJ, LoM archive and on the LoM yahoo group.

When the fics are uploaded again after voting, it will of course be with full credits.

I will then announce the next challenge shortly after, both here, on the LoM forum, LoM LJ, LoM archives and on the LoM yahoo group.
