What is a Wildey

    Fan fiction have always been the manifestation of how much an impact a show has made on the general population. These stories written by fans for fans out of pure love for the show, not only strengthens the foundation of a fan base, but also brings out and develops aspiring young writers' creative imagination in "continuing" the show. The Questors JQML Fanfiction Awards strives to recognize outstanding fanfics and their authors in the Questors JQML. In turn, may it be instrumental in challenging fanfic writers into developing and improving the quality of JQ fanfics, as well as continue to deepen the love for the show. 

     The Fanfic Awards Committee has decided to nickname the Questors JQML Awards as "The Wildey". In honour of Comics illustrator, writer, and creator of the Jonny Quest Series, Doug Wildey. The Wildey will not reward the winners with prizes that have monetary value. Instead, the winners will receive fame, bragging rights, and a nifty little icon to be posted in webpages. What else can you ask for? 

     There are 3 very important elements to note in posting your fics. If one of these requirements are missing from your fic, it will not be included in the fic list. These will be further elaborated in the FIC Criteria.

1. Name and e-mail address of the author
2. Date of when the fic was FIRST POSTED in the JQML
3. Category/categories where the fic belongs to.

     If your fic does not contain these elements, or at least in the prologue/first chapter of the story (for multiple parts) contact the FFAC right away. You will have until the end of whenever quarter you posted your fic to correct this, otherwise your fic will not be included in the voting.

Fanfic Criteria

1). All fanfics WRITTEN and POSTED FOR THE FIRST TIME in the Questors JQML between January 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 are automatically eligible for the 1999 Questors JQML Fanfiction awards. 

2). Fics that were posted for the 2nd time are considered re-posts and are not eligible for the 1999 Questors JQML Awards. In the case of Re-posts, please write down the date of when the fic was posted FOR THE FIRST TIME in the JQML. Fics that do not have the date of when the fic was posted FOR THE FIRST TIME will be considered as reposts and will not be listed in the ficlist. 

3). If you do not wish your fanfic to be included in the awards, please make a note of it in the beginning of your fic. If there is no note, the FFAC will assume that you are giving us permission to include your fic in the awards.

Fanfic Categories/Multiple Categories

SUZE THE ARCHIVE GODDESS' FANFIC CATEGORIES:
by Suze, the Archive Goddess
(with some modifications)

A). Angst/Sad Stuff (A)
Any story that includes major heartache or sad storylines. 

B). Adventure/Episodic (E)
Stories that are action-adventure based and/or close to what you would see in the actual TV series. 
 

a). Real Life (RE)
Any action adventure story that centers around the realms of reality. For example... Spies and espionage, wars, Indiana-Jones theme, anti-world domination schemes, computer hacking, shopping...

b). Paranormal (PE)
Any action adventure story that centers around paranormal/mythical/fantasy/science fiction themes. For example... use of aliens, UFOs, ghosts, vampires, werewolves, plaging the Quest team in a Tolkien-theme Universe.


C). Humour (H)
Any story that is primarily written for humorous effect. 

D). Romance (HR)
Stories that include romantic liaisons amongst any characters. The parties involved in the romantic relationships are (usually) denoted. HR Categories will be further divided to: 

a).Jonny-Jessie (JJ-HR)
Any romantic situation with Jonny and Jessie. 

b). Hadji-Jessie (HJ-HR)
Any romantic situation with Hadji and Jessie. 

c). Desperately Being Neutral (DBN-HR)
Any opposite gender romantic situations between any characters (established, cross-over or created) other than the J-J, J-H. For example: Jonny and Irena. Jessie and Bryce (from Alexis' JQ2K), Jonny and Jill (Jack broke up with her). 

d). Yaoi HR 
Any non-graphic same gender romantic situation between any of the JQ characters (established, cross-over or created). For example: Jonny and Hadji, Surd and Vostok, Jonny and Jack (Jill finally discovered the reason why Jack broke up with her) 

e). Other HR
Any opposite gender romantic situation with other JQ characters (established, cross-over or created). For example: Race and Estella, Race and Jade, Benton and Rachel, Benton and Kathy Martin, Surd and Julia...

E). Crossover (X)
Any story that includes characters from another TV series, movies,books, etc. 

F). Music (M)
Any fic that uses a song as a major story device, including music videos, music fics (which are actual stories centered around songs), etc. 

G). Vignette (V)
This is kind of a strange category. Usually, it's used to show length - any fic that is not a complete story, just a scene or two, I consider to be a vignette. 

H). Future (F)
Any story that takes place about 3+ years in the future (where Jonny is either 18+, or it is indicated by the author that this is "in the future"). The idea is that it isn't something happening during the current (as far as the TV show goes) timeline, but it's fairly flexible. 

I). Past (P)
On the other side of the coin, there are the stories that take place in the past. I consider anything that takes place prior to the start of the series (Jonny is less than 15, they're kids, etc.) To be a "past" fic. Since this is mainly a JQTRA ML, CJQ inspired fics would also fall under this category. 

J). Alterniverse/Alternate Realities (ALT)
This includes any story that uses regular JQ characters, but not in the usual way, or includes main re-occuring characters that aren't part of the regular show. I'm not talking about one-shot wonders, girlfriends, etc... recurring characters, like the JQ 2000 crew, or major characters that have nothing to do with the "real" JQ - like we introduce Jessie's "real" mother, Mrs. X. That would be an alterniverse. 

Alternate realities can also fall under this category... these are stories with themes centering in "what if" plots. For example: What if Hadji was never adopted? What if Race or Benton re-married? What if Race really IS a transexual Rachel? What if the JQ Cast is an all-girls, instead of an all-boys club? 

Any story that includes characters from the JQ 2000 series ( Mishelle Jenks, Travis Crenshaw, Bryce Crenshaw, Tai-Lee Natsume, and Claudette Monchier) are under ALT as well. 

K). Not Fanfic (NF)
This includes everything that isn't an actual story - poems, quizes, games, lists, reviews, etc. 

L). Mailing List (ML)
Any story which features real-life people - usually members of the Questors or Maison-Otaku MLs, but it could be any real person. Pass the fics usually fall under this category and Insanity/AGALAIAHRA. 

M). Insanity or AGALAIAHRA (I)
Fanfics wherein its totally insane or Anything Goes As Long As It Ain't HR or Angst... usually involves completely chaotic/insane situations, people, etc. Usually humorous, an Insanity fic is totally unpredictable, anything can happen (and usually does), and often doesn't have any plot whatsoever. 

N). Parodies and Spoofs (Par)
Not necessarily counted as a cross-over. These are fics wherein JQ characters parodize another show or story but characters from that other show or story do not appear. For example, The JQ Cast plays Shakespheare's "The Taming of the Shrew" (with hilarious results). Or non-JQ characters parodizing JQ storylines. Unlike X-overs, parodies usually do not make use of characters from the other show. 

O). Family (Fam)
Fics that focus on character development of the relationships of the characters as a family. Closely related to Past categories and are usually more insight oriented than action oriented. For example: A fic that explores the Benton-Jonny relationship, or Race reminiscing about his life growing up.

     With the incidence of Multiple Categories, as long as your fic falls under a category, it will be included for nomination in the categories applicable with the exception of Music Videos* (not to be confused with Music Fics). 

     Because we are no longer listing fics according to their chapters, it is now the author's responsibility to provide the FFAC all the overall categories applicable to their fic in the case of multiple parts.

    Due to the policies of the Questors JQML, there will be no awards for lemons or graphically violent fics in the Questors JQML.

*Music Videos are pieces of fiction that follows the flow of an actual music video wherein flashed of scenes depict the story within the song. Music Fics are pieces of fiction that incorporate parts or a whole song to enhance a piece of prose. Music Videos will be categorized ONLY as music videos due to its different genre from prose fics.
