Hey, HPFT! It's 2019, but I'm reorganizing some things and realized that we weren't really regularly using the staff blog back when we did our first FROGS awards in 2017... so I'm posting them here, too. You can find the original topic +here and our youtube livestream +here.

We've announced our winners of this year's FROGS awards on a livestream +here - thank you so much to everyone who tuned in to watch us share the results! HPFT is home to so many talented and dedicated members, and whether or not you were won an award or were able to participate in this year's FROGS, this community wouldn't be the same without you.

Hey guys! A couple of things! All the FROGs voting threads are now located in the FROGS 2017 subforum in activity archives. Please drop by within the next two days to get your votes in. Voting for staff will end Tuesday the 30th at midnight gmt (roughly). Also, I would like to have our awards announcement on the 31st sometime in the evening. Ideally, I'd like to have someone from each house, but if it doesn't work out that way, it's okay too. I'll be in NYC during that time, but I will be available to do the broadcast around 8pm EST. If you'd like to be part of the live award broadcast, please let me know. Also, we're planning a live tweet of each award as the live announcement plays! And finally, I'm just about finished typing up an announcement post + making the award graphics & award pip, so that should all be ready to post immediately after the live announcement. created folder in activity archives and edited that in <3 - Branwen
