| Praesul, you seem to want a lot of stuff to be publicly announced when it really truly honestly isn't stuff that matters. Let me give you an example.
In 2005, when I was on the ENnies staff, I met and talked with Erik Mona of Paizo on Friday morning. Then, Friday evening, in the elevator up to the awards, I saw a guy who looked familiar and was like, "Hey, do I know you?" And he was like, "I'm Erik Mona, from Paizo. You talked to me this morning and gave me directions to the event."
That occurred as part of the ENnies. Do you think it's critical that the public knows it happened? I don't. I think it's just an embarrassing anecdote. In my judgment, it wasn't important to share this information with the public. I'm just sharing it now in an effort to show how unreasonable it is to expect the judges and staff to tell the public everything that goes on with the ENnies.
Let the judges and staff do their job. When some actual cronyism and abuse starts up, we should complain about it then. But people are making a mountain out of a molehill here.
