CLOSED - The Hearties

Q and A

Q: Why must we vote for a certain amount?

A: We are having everyone vote for more than one so it's less of a popularity contest. If people have to vote for more than just their friends, they will hopefully check out the rest of the stories and truly vote for talent. Many Wattpad contests do this as well. 

Q: Do I have to vote a certain way?

A: Yes! If you do not vote properly, it will not be counted. You must vote for EXACTLY the required amount and they must all be in one comment. You must write "I vote for "Story Title" by "@username". Using "+1" or "Vote" will not be accepted. Please do not vote inline.

Q: What if I don't want to vote for more than one?

A: That is completely up to you, but your vote will not be counted if you do not vote for the required amount. Everyone is required to follow the rules or their vote will be void. No exceptions.

Q: Why is everyone grouped together instead of split up like last year?

A: Because it's a group of twenty vying for first place. All are romance genre, so they are all grouped together.

Q: What if I don't want to participate anymore?

A: You can let us know and we will take you off the list.

Q: If I place in people's choice, will I move on to judges choice also?

A: No. We don't want the same few people winning everything. We want it to be fair and give more people a chance to shine.

Q: When will the Judge's Choice portion start?

A: As soon as winners are announced for People's Choice.

Q: Can I ask my followers for votes?

A: Yes, you may post asking for votes, put it in your story or even share this book on your page.

Q: How long will each Round last?

A: We are shooting for 48 hours for each one, but please understand we are human and it may not be exact.

Q: What if I have a question that's not on this list?

A: Please send us a message for a faster response! We are being flooded with comments (aka votes) right now and will likely miss your question of it is posted on this book.
