Fan Fiction
Congratulations to the following winners!
Best Dramatic Story: "The Little Things"
When Sam leaps into an autistic eight-year old, Al has a hard time when there seems to be a lot of magnafluxing with the leapee. Shawn P. Deal, the story's author, should be proud of himself for dealing with this affliction with such a touching story.
Best Historical Story: "Along a Shining Path"
Shawn P. Deal's first of two stories in 2004, both of which aired on Quantum Leap: The Virtual Seasons (episode 1022), deals with Sam leaping into Peru and having to prevent various murders by foreign militants trying to oust the Spanish "invaders". It portrays an important historical point about Sout America.
Best Overall Story: "Lifetime" trilogy (acclaimated)
With no contenders for this category, Damon C. Sugameli's "Lifetime" trilogy, which also aired on Quantum Leap: The Virtual Seasons (episodes 1032, 1101, and 1102), was awarded for its complete excellence. Sam travels to the past, the present, and even the future in these three episodes, bringing together many aspects of our hero's time-travelling activities.
All-time Favourite Story: "The Final Solution" and "ETC" (co-winners)
Sue Johnson's "The Final Solution" aired as episodes 1001 and 1002 on Quantum Leap: The Virtual Seaons. Sam leaps into the end of World War II as a prisoner at a concentration camp in Auschwitz, Poland. One can be inevitably brought to tears many times during the story as it progresses.
"ETC", a 20-part story by Christina L. Bartruff, has the tagline "In 1960, Lt. Elizabeth Townsend was stationed at Pensacola NAS, Florida. Little did she know she would meet the man who would change her life forever......"
Best Virtual Series: Quantum Leap: The Virtual Seasons
Starting out in 1999 with a "virtual sixth season" having 18 episodes, Quantum Leap: The Virtual Seasons has grown by leaps (pun intended!) and bounds to have five more seasons at 32 episode each, greatly expanding on the universe established by Donald P. Bellisario's original television series. It has 28 talented authors as varied as the series itself, all of whom have aided in the growth of this virtual series.
A.J. Burfield and M.J. Cogburn, the co-founders, have given the Quantum Leap community the perfect opportunity to feel as though the series has continued.
Best Role-Playing Game: Future's Past RPG
As with most of the other "Quantum Leap" RPGs on the Internet, this game started off after Sam's next leap after Al's Place. Things are going wrong at the Project and Sam is having a tough time on his leap.
Though the players come and go, the story has been going for over two years and continues to press on.
All-time Favourite Role-Playing Game: Quantum Leap RPG
This RPG, which started out at the end of 1999 on ONElist, is self-declared as the original "Quantum Leap" RPG on the Internet. Sam has returned home, only to have on of Al's daughters leap in order to prevent a catastrophic event at the Project. Eventually, she falls into the hands of Lothos, which launched an entirely-new scene for the RPG.
Although dwindling in numbers in the past year, the story still goes on, slowly but surely, and is a favourite to many.

Re: Fan Fiction
Where can I find these Fan-Fiction stories? I'd love to read them. I'm writing a QL fiction now. Maybe next year I'll be a contender too...
