DISCLAIMER
Please understand, I am no Albert Einstein. I don't know everything and the judges don't know everything either. With this being said, don't take award contests seriously. It's just for fun!

Every participant needs to pick up their reviews! Down below in the Active Check you can write any social media (Insta, X, Discord) you may have so I can send it to you. If you do not have one, we can discuss how to send it in the comments.

The mean average of all the scores total in this category is: 56.75!

Stickers for the respective winners!
You don't need to use it, but I guess it would be nice lol. I'll hand them over alongside the feedback/review!

ROUND 3 RESULTS
(first off, eliminations)
VVIPs

Arranged Art of Love: Diamonds and Dreams by taevishi [M] {Eliminated}
- AI detected in sections of the Author's POVs and other areas, which disqualifies the book from competition. Some areas included 60% AI, but some specifically included 100% in multiple detectors. Since I can't pinpoint if AI was used for editing or the writing itself, the story will be disqualified as per the rules. Small disclaimer, I am not stating you have used AI to write your story. I am purely judging based on the rules of my awards. The writing tends to change its style as the story progresses, which is why some sections come out more as AI-written than others through some awkward phrasings and format. The script-like style is present as well in some chapters, which as per the criteria is not acceptable for this award. In addition, the story can cause confusion with switches from "Yena" to "you" by the middle of the story. There are inconsistencies as well with big and small spaces between the paragraphs. Since the book was eliminated for AI purposes, re-evaluations are not required.

The Delusional Psycho | KTH by Moonfication [M] (winner)
- Since the book is part of the top 3 winners, re-evaluations are not required.

ARRANGED MARRIAGE by sarang_my_winterbear
- From what I have read, the story has potential if worked on further. There were engaging interactions between the characters, which were effective in leaving the reader wanting more. It falls short in some areas of the rubric, but if you focus on those sections, the overall theme of the story could be properly highlighted for the readers. As I moved through the chapters, it felt like I was watching a K-Drama with its twist and turns. However, you should always be careful with this because sometimes it can be too predictable and come off as "expected" to the readers. The first few chapters really did it for me as a perfect hook into the theme, so try to not lose that momentum as the story progresses for better storytelling. Overall, your writing is adequate, with minimum errors present, so a good review/editing of your story's main focus or plot will definitely help it soar to new heights.

Congrats everyone!
Make sure to pick up your reviews/feedbacks!
In addition to the Honorable Mentions per category, there will be Honorable Mentions for all the categories combined once this award ends. Those will include some of my favorite winning + eliminated stories!
Stay tuned, and thank you KTH category participants and judges for taking part in The Trivia Awards!

FINAL DISCLAIMER
Winners, if you're placing your win as an achievement in your book, make sure to write this contest as "The Trivia Awards - 2024-25" or something similar mentioning the years. The Trivia Awards are yearly (not exactly, but they repeat every two years or so), meaning that the year is important to distinguish each year's winner! Neo City Splendor, my archive for award winners, mentioned those who won from my past awards, so please check it out! I will add the winners from The Trivia Awards 2024-25 once all categories are done!
