sett, I totally take your concerns seriously because that's how we get better. No one see the same from the inside looking out as the outside looking in. I think the very fact that these conversations were going on shows that the personnel of the ENnies take complaints very seriously...

From what I've seen during my time associated with the ENnies every year a judges' choice award or two is considered, then thrown out. I think the general idea is that the nomination serves as the judges' choice, and there may be a general fear that going any further might give the idea that...

Well, as long as they're objective and not biased...

Also, in the interests of total disclosure, I should point out that I am now, officially, Zach's replacement. I don't do it out of some sense of accomplishment, because really, who wants to be the guy that got in because someone else stepped aside? I do think it's important however to be...

Totally off topic, but can I just say that if you ever want to feel good about yourself you should really get on fusangite's good side. I don't know that I agree with your number 1, but I certainly support the idea behind it. I believe Morrus is right in that there needs to be a cut off, but...

Agreed. It's not really "ok", but so long as it's used as a learning experience it's "reasonable." Everyone has made a mistake, and some times it's just too late to take it back.

I actually agree with you. Maybe we should discuss this more (by "we" I'm referring to the general populous). I think the problem here is really not so much though that the ENnies staff hasn't responded, but that Zach hasn't. I think they've made an effort, but I'd really like to see what...

I agree. By the time elections are held we're already 3 months into the judging year. I know that I, during my term, already owned several of the books that were turned into me, and was really glad to see them submitted because I liked them so much, but I'd be curious to go back over them and...

Yeah, I guess I didn't do a good job of clarifying that at all. I agree that there's no danger of suit, and perhaps "theft" was a bad word, but that whole conversation in general wasn't particularly useful. I think we learned a lot from that first episode, especially in editing, and hopefully...

So, I've begun work on a new project, and I'm curious about what others think of the idea. For a while now I've been helping a friend of mine build settings by guiding him through the process of putting together his adventures into cohesive campaigns, and it occurred to us that it might be a...

In case anyone has an interest, our new podcast (Mastering the Game) just posted its first episode.

Ok, my group is so going to fight 2 or 3 of those cave trolls tomorrow.

Thanks Joe, to you as well.

For anyone who is interested in throwing a vote my way my name is Jeramy Ware. I was a judge in 2007, and anyone who wants to see the work I did can ask around here or pop over to http://enniejudge.blogspot.com/ where I blogged the whole process to see how I do it. The voting booth can be found...

Doh, can't believe I forgot to do this here. Having been a gamer for 25 years, I have run numerous campaigns using a great many different systems. I have extensive experience as both a Game Master and a player, and though I have never been a part of the industry, I have been a member of the...

I'm running again this year. My term last year was the most rewarding thing I've ever done as a part of the RPG community.

Maybe I shouldn't point out that the whole ENnies/podcasting thing is at least partially my fault, but here goes: So, I wasn't a judge this year, but last year, when I was, I asked that a category be created for podcasts. I had just discovered them, quickly became a fan, and really wanted to...

Thanks. I'm glad it seems to be a one time thing. I'm really lloking forward to this set. I loves me some extra-large minis.

So, did you have to take any time off from work for that last minute rush this year, or did you pound your head against a wall until all the game rules fell out so you could start fresh? :) Congrats to the nominees and judges. It's a tough field and a hard job.

So, I'm pretty bummed right now. I ordered a case of Against the Giants minis, but they're not being shipped until next week, so I went out today and grabbed a couple boxes from the FLGS. All in all the minis are pretty nice. I don't play the minis game, but I like a little bit of random...
