[QUOTE="Dextra, post: 3018257, member: 5705"] I'm starting up this thread to get input from publishers (not fans- they can pipe in in the parallel fans' forum discussion already begun) on how you want to see the categories handled and defined. This is an opinion-finding mission only, not a vote. [list=1] [*][B]Judge Selection[/B]: Should judges be able to self-nominate, or should they receive a nomination and second before being put on the ballot? [*][B]d20[/B]: I would like to keep the best d20 category as a nod to the origins of the Awards as well as reflect the unique advantages and disadvantages of using the d20 STL, but redefine it so that a product cannot compete in the Best Game as well as Best d20 Product. Please, no conjecture about 4th ed and how it'll affect future Awards, let's focus only on the 2007 Awards. [*][B]Mega Books[/B]: With the increasing number of mega-books with content spanning multiple genres, should we limit the number of categories an individual product in which a product can compete in the "Genre" domain (best adventure, best campaign/campaign setting supplement, best monster/adversary, best supplement)? Ie. publisher picks one? Or do we reward the products for their content, so in theory a Ptolusesque product could receive nominations in all? [*][B]Additional Categories[/B]: I am contemplating adding the "Best Paraphernalia" category to the list to include items such as T-shirts, RPG fiction (and comics), dice bags, RPG movies, etc. In other words, the Aid/Accessory category would be open to products that enhance game play, paraphernalia to products that enhance gamer lives. [*][B]Category Definitions[/B]: how are we doing with the definitions as is? [*][B]Category Evaluation Criteria[/B]: by what criteria do you think each category should be evaluated? [/list] [/QUOTE]
