Misteryosa Award
I didn’t judge the entries based on anyone else’s standards but mine. There were no strict criteria followed during the process. I just read the entries as casually as I could, left a comment here and there, agreed or disagreed with some points which were made by the author, listed the notable ones I found, and waited for the organizers’ email about the result.
I did mention that those who already have a domain would be short-listed from the final list of eligible entries for the Misteryosa Award. I should think that this simple special mechanics wouldn’t be of a problem to others. I decided to do this because I wanted to give this chance to others to finally have their own domain. Besides, what would you need another domain for? Duh?
There’s one thing I would like to admit. I came up with a final list of 10 possible bloggers that would win the award. From there, I closely followed their blogs — from the content, to the habit, to even the archives of their posts. I wanted to know the people behind the blogs. Bottomline: I did not judge the Wika 2007 entries only. See, I wanted to make sure that the bloggers aren’t just one-hit wonders. Y’know, those who would come up with interesting (I repeat, for me) posts whenever something’s at stake. I wanted consistency.
