The Annual Kim Possible Fannie Awards is an annual Award-ceremony fic dedicated to Kim Possible Fanfiction. The Award was originally created by the author Zaratan, but has since been taken over by The KP Fannie Committee.
The awards are organised through the Fanfiction.Net forums, and voted on by readers via direct mailing The KP Fannie Committee.
With the exception of the community awards, only stories published on Fanfiction.Net are eligible.
History
The Award was originally created by the author Zaratan, who wrote the first four ceremonies, and posted them on his Fanfiction.net account. Nominations were listed on the Fannies site, which was hosted by Commander Argus, and votes were taken via fanfiction.net's direct mailing system.
After Zaratan announced they were going on hiatus, cpneb took over and arranged the fifth awards. Shortly before the results were announced, cpneb fell ill and passed away. The KP Fannie Committee account was then established to manage the awards, with different authors stepping up to pen the award ceremonies. Fics were not written for the 6th and 7th fannies, but the results were posted on the Fanfiction.net forums. Slipgate took over writing for the 8th awards. Since the 12th ceremony, the awards have been written by Sharper The Writer.
The 13th awards introduced "Best Drakgo" as a new category, to sit alongside "Best Kim/Ron" and "Best Kigo" as ship-specific awards.
The nominations for the 17th awards added "Best Drabble-Like Story", to recognise fics under 500 words in length.
Categories
These are the categories that make up the typical annual roster.
1) Best KP-Style Name - This category will be for the best name done in the KP style. Kim Possible had been a wordplay for Impossible, Ron Stoppable had been a wordplay for Unstoppable, and Camille Leon had been a wordplay for Chameleon. Nominees for this category would be KP style names that you liked. (Note: Possible and Stoppable names are ineligible for the award since the Committee wants variety.)
2) Best Original Character
3) Best Minor Character - This is a category for characters that were minor characters in the series. (Kim, Ron w/Rufus, Wade, Drakken, and Shego are classified as the main MAJOR characters of the show and are ineligible for this award)
4) Best Villain - Can be original or a character who was in the show.
5) Best Songfic - Best songfic in the year. Bear in mind, it MUST conform the rules of FFnet about not using copyrighted lyrics. Has not been presented since the 14th Fannies.
6) Best AU Story
7) Best Crossover/Fusion
8) Best Alternate/Other Canon Pairing - For pairings other than the "Big Three" (Kigo, Drakgo, Kim/Ron)
10) Best Drakgo Story
11) Best Kim/Ron Story
12) Best Comedy Story
13) Best Romance Story
14) Best Friendship Story
15) Best Action/Adventure Story
16) Best Drama Story
17) Most Unlikely-Unique Story - The story should be told in a way that you buy it, but basically a story that shows a situation incredibly unlikely (or unique) to happen in the show but still seemingly plausible and possibly hilarious.
18) Best One-Shot Overall - This is for stories that are one-shot. One chapter. If there's some story that has a second chapter only because of an author's note explaining something bad FFNet had done to the published version of the story or something, we'll deal with that on a case-by-case basis. This category is reserved for stories rated K-T. The Mature section has an award of their own.
19) Best Novel-Sized Story - Best story of novel-like size. For our purposes we'll consider stories that are 40,000 or more words eligible. We'll be using FFNet's word count for this, but in borderline cases if your word processor said something was 40,000 words but it ends up less according to FFNet's count, we'll handle that on a case-by-case basis. This category is reserved for stories rated K-T. The Mature section has an award of their own.
20) Best Short Story - Best story between 3,000 and 15,000 words. Please note that there's a separate one-shot category. This category is good for fairly short stories that might still be a couple chapters long. Like with novels, we'll go off FFNet's word count, but in borderline cases we'll figure out if something is eligible on a case-by-case basis. This category is reserved for stories rated K-T. The Mature section has an award of their own.
