This is a repost of the fantastic post lit_gal did, reflecting the changes we the comm have done over the years. This is nothing new.






How to Win Awards

Warning... large graphics included!

Step One Pick your award.  Yep, you read that right.  You decide how many weeks to play. Step Two: Post a story that fits the prompt each week. Remember, the story will only qualify if it meets the rules found in the profile: must be at least 500 words long, must have the prompt involved in the fic somehow, the fic must be posted to the comm, etc.

Step Three: The first week you fail to post a story, there will be a post for any awards that you may have earned. Examples: Mary wants the Melpomene Award. She posts a story each week for 15 weeks. On week 16, she doesn't post a story. By week 17, she'll have her Melpomene Award. Kelly wants a Terpsichore Award.  She posts every week, but on week 19, she doesn't post to the comm. Her run is over.  By week 18, there will be posted a Polyhymnia Award, and she starts over again. Jessie is insane and wants them all.  Oi.  She posts three stories and then skips week 4.  By week five, there is posted a Calliope Award for her.  She starts over again, and must post at least 6 stories before taking another week off and then there will be a post giving the Clio Award to her. Yep, every time you miss a week, you start over at ONE!

Calliope Award - 3 consecutive weeks Clio Award - 6 consecutive weeks Erato Award - 9 consecutive weeks Euterpe Award - 12 consecutive weeks Melpomene Award - 15 consecutive weeks Polyhymnia Award - 18 consecutive weeks Terpsichore Award - 21 consecutive weeks Thalia Award - 24 consecutive weeks Urania Award - 27 consecutive weeks Goddess Award - 30 consecutive weeks

These are the awards up to the week 30, wherein the goddess award is obtained. If you keep going, the rules change slightly, but there are more awards to be had! Click here for those awards and those rules.

Question (I'm new so sorry if this has been asked and answered before):
Let's say I do three weeks and get the award. If I do another three weeks, for a total of six consecutive weeks, would I get the next award as well?
Or would I need to do the three weeks and another six weeks to get the six-week award?

Thanks!!

The second option. To get both the tree week award and the six week award you need to do the following: Write three consecutive weeks, miss one week, write six consecutive weeks

I hope this helped.
