Help us decide what fan run panels to approve. Only paid members can vote. Members have an unlimited number of votes, but can only vote for a particular panel once. Restricting this to paid members prevents ballot stuffing. Votes for a panel are just one part of the decision process. AF panel staff will make the final determinations. A panel with many votes may be declined and a panel with no votes may be approved. The votes give us an indication of popularity and may also help to decide if a panel should be scheduled in a large or small room.
