And some of the major winners in the gen category are definitely ship stories. I'm surprised the authors didn't tell the committee to move them to the correct category.

I think what she means to say is that the winning stories were written by known shippers.

Unless, of course, they featured Jack and Sam in the same room at any one time without one loathing the other.

And I don't see them complaining about ELG winning best so-called "team" fic when the story is, at the very least, pre-slash and should go in the slash category.

Nor Lex winning "best Teal'c story" when "Threshold Missing Scene" actually revolves around Daniel.

Of course, OS has never been particularly smart when it comes to removing the beam from their own eye before pointing out the speck in someone else's.

Although, come to that, OS and its denizens have never been particularly smart, period.

well, i do have sam and tealc' talking to each other.....might be ship, since we all know if any male/female talk to each other it's a precursor to sex.

and jonas....well he does think about the others, and that jack and teal'c care for sam...and i guess well you know again, those pesky het ships where they can't care about each other without CARING WINK WINK NUDGE NUDGE about each other.

sour grapes make sour whine.

if they really want to take issue, then they should either start their own awards or get over it.

Oye.. Because someone writes more of one type of story they automatically become that type of writer all the time.

yep. around 10% of all my fic is bonafide ship, and half of that is sam/teal'c...and 'approved' pairing. but of course, once you venture into the dark side, you're tained for life.

And not a peep about the pre-slash that stayed in gen.

i can only guess this is about me:

And some of the major winners in the gen category are definitely ship stories. I'm surprised the authors didn't tell the committee to move them to the correct category. Especially because at least one of the authors is *on* the committee.

dare i tell the little darling that my and the rest of the 'ship' stories WERE gen...of course not by thier definition of Daniel = Gen.

folks like this are why the awards are such a chore. People do their best, get bitched on/about...all by folks that won't get off their tushes and help.

Well apparently anytime you have any male and female character in a fic, it's considered a ship fic. Because men and women can never be friends. Nuh uh. Sacriledge.
