As for the topic, since I started reading FFs not even for an year and dont have much exposure, I dont have much to say. But from my little observation, I can say this.
a. I see there is an FF/SS/OS index being maintained at the forum. This needs to be extended and in a more presentable fashion in order for all parties to easily segregate as required. such as finding stories with start date and end date if completed along with authors name and atleast a 2 line synopsis.
b. Based upon this index, it gets easy to isolate stories by each year or semester for nominations. Synopsis helps to put the story into applicable categories with not much of a pain.
c. Add categories for both completed and ongoing stories separately and by each year.
d. Stories that were put on hold as explicitly by author or stories that are neither updated for a certain period nor provided any note of the status of the story, they can be ignored to consider for nominations.
e. Add more categories such as fast paced, detail oriented, message oriented or societal awareness oriented, best fictional, stories close to reality, story with best Arnav, best Khushi along with genre based categories plus existing ones like romatic, sad, funniest, mystery as well.
f. if an author has more than 2 stories, pick the best 2 for nominations.
I dont know if any of this makes sense and is practical to consider or not but just wanted to put in my thoughts.
