[QUOTE="Gradine, post: 8026621, member: 57112"] Yeah, it definitely calls into question the tastes and sensibilities if the judges responsible for that year... it definitely gives me pause to vote for any judges in the future who were there for that. The votes themselves I'm less concerned or surprised about. The OSR crowd was always out in force at voting time and LotFP was a particular crowd favorite, for... some reason, anyway. Raising a stink about it at Morrus now is definitely a situation of too little, too late, though. I don't remember there being much of a stink raised about it then, which is... curious to say the least. It certainly begs the question as to what extent, if any, these qualities (racism, misogyny) would convince Morrus to act and personally disqualify a nominee (if he even had that power, which I assume but am not sure of). I could definitely see both sides of that argument; maintaining the integrity of the event and the award process vs maintaining the integrity of the ENWorld brand by allowing such a nominee to proudly display the Ennie nomination/award. Regardless, AFAIK Zak S was never stripped of his past awards, and if that never happened there's certainly not going to be anything happening with this adventure. [/QUOTE]
