This is where you can nominate stories to be featured on Main Street!

Nomination Rules:

1. You may nominate your own story or the story of another member or group of members. Please note: Role-plays are not counted as stories.

2. Stories must, of course, be written by the nominee. If any are found to be plagiarised, the nominee in question may possibly be banned from the feature and reported to the Guards.

3. Fanfiction is allowed. However, we would much prefer to feature original pieces. Please keep that in mind when nominating.

4. There is a chance of one person having several stories featured along the way. As fresh blood is still always preferred, try to nominate writers who have not yet been in the limelight.

5. If you are nominating a short story, we ask that it is complete. We will, however, feature unfinished chaptered works.

6. We will not feature stories that have won an official contest or are currently entered in one (there is a chance they might win). If you really like the author, try to find another story of theirs to nominate.

7. Nominations should be titled, grammatically correct and should have been put through a spell-check.

8. Stories are to be submitted on a wiki-page. However, if you need help setting up the wiki one of us will assist you.

9. Each nomination should include the following information:
Nominee: The writer.
Story: a wiki link to the story.
Nominator: You.
Info: A detailed reason as to why you are nominating this story.

Example Nomination

Nominee: [Hedda]
Story: Hedda's Story
Nominator: The Featured Story Team
Info: Hedda's story is a fun and interesting tale of his cat, Lilo, as she battles space invaders intent on the destruction of Elftown and eventual brain control of the entire world.

2009-07-23 [Chimes]: We're trying to work out a new schedule... we need more nominations, if we keep doing it weekly we will run out... so we're having a 'reshuffle'. Please, please, please keep nominating. We would love to get it so that we can safely do it weekly.

2014-07-22 [Stephen]: Thank you for making a nomination at that!

I haven't personally read over your nomination yet, but I'm sure it's a good read. <img:stuff/mood33-gif.gif>

2014-07-22 [Tekkon KinKreet]: Thank you. I may have a couple spelling errors. But my iPad deals with those automatically so there won't be many if any.

2014-07-22 [Tekkon KinKreet]: i have another one.. its a chaptered story but nominating myself twice would be weird to me lol.
