AH Award Nominations

Strategos' Risk

There should be an award for map making skills. However, I'm afraid we all know the winner already- EdT for "Shot Heard Around the World."

I reckon for WWII, Fearless Leader's TL on the Allies winning the Battle of the Java Sea. I reckon my own best work to date was in the previous board's section on developing your own AH historical figure, where I managed to do a quick piece on Col. Charles Young and how he could've changed hist for the better had he become the 1st black gen officer in the US Army during WWI.

Well, I haven't had the real time myself to actually write my own fullblown AH story, but if I did I'd choose a topic area based on the Buffalo Soldiers, such as 1 or more black regts being stationed in the Philippines at WWII's outbreak, how they fare in combat, and the development of earlier positive feelings amongst white America to accepting and using black soldiers.

"There is always hope...again" (POD 1942)
https://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=2742&highlight=Java

Note to anyone else making nominations...in order to make nominations, YOU need to do the research to locate the title of the timeline, and as a courtesy to those who might like to read the timeline, if you can copy and paste the thread address, that would be good too. But the minimum for a nomination is the author's name, the timeline title, and the category for which it is nominated.

I guess we can't do this by country then, Hendryk is well-deserving as making the best China TL in a very long time.

Since the POD is 1912, we can list this under the Early 20th Century category. The title is Superpower Empire: China.

hey Robert- could you put up the links for the ASB'ish catagories? I'd be interested on where the Dave Howery, Hawaii ISOT is.

I have not, until now, checked on the nominations under the ASB category, and I can see that I am going to start having to draw the line between what is eligible and what is not. What the Alternate History Awards seek to recognize is those board members who go "above and beyond" and take the time to create a coherent, plausible, and preferably detailed timeline based on an alternate history scenario. Threads, in general, are not eligible for nomination, because they do not represent any kind of creative effort...just a discussion between various members of the board.

As such, the threads mentioned above do not qualify for nomination. Also, the "Hawaii ISOT" thread, the Interplanar Confederation Thread, the "1980-2010: The age of money, greed, and terror" thread, and the Pulp AH thread previously listed are going to be removed, because they also do not fit the criteria.

The Cross Time Scooper Thread is a creative effort by many individuals, not a mere discussion, as is DME/Mosaic Earth. And the Anglo-Saxon thread is comprised mainly of an ongoing story written by Norman and others. So these do qualify, as they are creative efforts.

The Huey Long timeline is eligible.

Here is an alternate award graphic, based on Scarecrow's Turtledove Award, which allows space for personalizing (as did the award I previously made up). Let me know which graphic you prefer....the original one with the blue ribbon and trophy, or this one.

Shameless self-promotion! I love it! :D

But yeah, 47's 'Different Fate for the Templars' is pretty darn good. I nominate it for the Medieval section.
