It's been a wonderful year for Lois & Clark fic. Congratulations to all the winners, as well as all the other nominees, whose work also completely bowled me over. Thanks for the hours upon hours of reading pleasure you all have brought me. Looking forward to more excellent stories in the coming year.

Thank you to everyone who was involved in this event. I didn't get to participate much - had some unexpected company drop by. But it was lots of fun. I'm new here and a new reader - the stories are wonderful and you've all be so nice to me as a newbie! Thanks for the help navigating IRC too! A big congrats to all the winners!

Congratulations to all the nominees and all the winners! Sorry I had to leave the very interesting ceremony, but I kept getting netsplits. The link thru the hotel switchboard wasn't as stable as mine at home. I'll read the ceremony log when it is posted.
Warmest wishes to all

Aww congratulations, everyone! It was tough nominating and voting because there's too many great stories out there! In my slightly intoxicated state, I would love to nominate everyone for being awesome. <g> This year's going to be just as great! JD

Congratulations to all the winners, and thanks to everyone who made this possible! Special kudos to the new K-Comm, who did so well! It was all lots of fun, and I'm looking forward to the next ceremony! (Which will hopefully be arranged in a more convenient time than 2 a.m. Greece time ) See ya, AnnaBtG.

...  ... To say this was unexpected would be an understatment. Wow. All I can say is... You all must be crazy! (And I love you for it. <g>) Thank you to everyone who nomminated and voted and read... and stopped taking their pills.  Thanks to the K-comm for their *amazing* job (and happy birthday, toffe bar!). And, since I wasn't able to do so at the ceremony, I'd like to take a not-so-private moment to thank my BRs. With the BR team I had on AATR... I mean, Wendy, Yvonne, Sara, Sorcha, Sas! I didn't so much 'write' the story as just pick their brains and compile the results! So... thank you! Really, truly. The story would *never* have been written without you all. I'll have to engrave your names in next to mine... you can fight over the tiara. I also want to congratulate to everyone who won an award. Dave

Congratulations to all the Kerth winners. Sorry, I couldn't be there, but kitchen renovations are very tiring. I was exhausted by midnight. Jenni

Congratulations again to all of the winners! And just because you won doesn't mean you can stop writing. Last night was great fun. Great job, K-Comm!

Yes, it was a wonderful evening, even if I missed quite a lot of it due to running around taking care of sick kids :p Thank you so much to everyone who voted for my short stories! I was so surprised I forgot to say a few things, like -- thanks to Wendy & the IRC gang for instant reactions, CC, Meerkat & Chris Carr for beta-reading, and Erin for GE-ing. Thanks to everyone who agitated for a sequel to the first one -- especially Krafty You're a wonderful group to write for and with Congrats to all the other winners and nominees! You guys all did terrific work this year PJ
