Re: The Jater Couch 16: "Home..." (Jack & Kate Ship)
Afternoon Jates
Keep all those votes coming in
Speaking of which...
Being that it's summertime and folks are extra busy with real life and work, I'm extending voting in ALL categories until the last day by midnight EST, September 1st (Sun turning Monday). I know some were bummed they missed out on the first round and really this allows for the least skewed results b/c as many ppl as possible will be able to participate.
So if you missed those first categories check out The JKademy FAQ for links. As well as for future posted nominees.
If you make a post which talks about how much you loved a video or a scene, and you intended for that be your vote, please say so specifically or it may not get counted. Thanks!
Welcome aboard darknumb as Jater #424

I'd be glad to tell you more...
The Jater Couch (or JC) is our official "flag ship" thread for Jate. It's the main hubub, welcoming center, discussion arena, & happening place to hang out for Jate. Basically the members list makes you an official Jater not only on the couch but Fuse in general. We wear our numbers with pride
There is a private Jate section, which we affectionately call the treehouse. You're approved for entry into there with proven post history on the JC (join through your user CP on the Fuse toolbar at the top of your screen). Within it there's a Spoiler thread which is the epicenter for JK spoiler chat (we try to keep it a minimum on the couch to avoid folks getting inadvertently spoiled), a Preview discussion thread (previews are considered spoilers on Fuse), & various topics.
As to the rest of Fuse-it's very expansive. There's individual ep, character, & general sub-forums to interact in...The section our couch is in as I'm sure you know is group ships. In which you'll find fan threads/clubs that are generally the most active/popular w/regard to a respective character, ship, or writer.
I believe that the Fuse FAQ will cover any further q's you may have.

As I mentioned to you the best reward is honestly if folks enjoy themselves. Thank you for always taking the time to make everyone feel appreciated.
Special thanks to ozge too for helping folks with how to vote and to Sirena for her expression of gratitude about the JKads.

Thanks for the info Banshee! So I went to "Group Memberships" and clicked the box for Jate. Hopefully I did it correctly!
Re: The Jater Couch 16: "Home..." (Jack & Kate Ship)
Hey Jaters
I am so gutted I that i missed the first round of the JKademies but i was just urber busy at the moment and i didn't get chance to put in my votes which is why these are very short because im going to Italy in about four hours but i didn't want to miss another week....
Kate brushes against Jack's tattoo laden skin as she fastens his backpack and inquires about his mysterious ink.
This one wins for me, although it was a tough choice, simply because it was such an early connection that was made and one which didn't go un-noticed either (sun & charlie) and it established this special bond that others were accepting "you to have an inside joke"
5. Best Jate Video
What is it about this video which makes it deserving of the title "Best Jate Video"?
Why do you feel your selection is the Best Jate FF?
The Proposal-SNBH
Fearing his life without her, Jack wears his heart on his sleeve as he proposes to Kate and she joyfully accepts.
I really couldn't decide between this and the hallway - but im such a romantic at heart that Kate's gleaming tears & Jacks shyness (and the fact that we had no spoilers for it!! ) Just blew me away and confirmed to everyone that they are each others future because they were engaged!!
Anyway, apologies for them being so short but ive put every jate clip on my computer thing ive got to watch on the plane so hopefully when I come back i'll be full up of Jate and have something a bit more thoughtful to say!!
Have a nice week guys - see you for next weeks Votes!!

For those of you who haven't watched it, I highly recommend doing so. It will bring you from right where Jack and Kate started all the way through each amazing and significant moment of their beautiful relationship. It is really great!
Thank you for reaffirming the faith with that video Lovey. You should be proud of yourself!!

It definitely brings you back to all the glorious Jate scenes that have been shown to us throughout the years and it brings a huge smile to our faces. Bravo!
Wow you guys, seriously. Thank so much for your generous, kind words. That was just something I put together because I wanted to illustrate just how important and crucial Jack and Kate are to each other and to the overall theme/story of Lost. I didn't imagine so many people would be so touched by it. Especially when there are so many amazing vids out there, I mean really. I'm completely moved that you guys feel so strongly about it.

I have no time lately, I just wanted to make sure I voted before the other "round" started.
