I'm glad for your honest input, thank you. It's unfortunate that you don't see how many small press publishers did and do sumbit to the ENnies. Perhaps we'll have to put up a list of every company who submitted product, even if it's just to say "thank you for participating". Some of them even...

I truly sympathize. If it's any consolation, it was your impressive declaration of candidacy statement that convinced me to vote for you.

We have now exceeded the number of votes we had from last year, and there's still four and a bit days remaining. The difference between fifth and sixth place is only 52 votes. The difference between fourth and fifth place is only 108. Considering that at any given time there are over a...

Please see my above post about Campaigning. Active campaigning is allowed and encouraged so long as it is not disruptive.

Working on it!

Judge Candidates Campaigning I have no issue with would-be judges campaigning, with a few provisos: 1. No campaigning in this thread. 2. No campaigning in the nominations thread. 3. No campaigning that disrupts an already-existing thread. 4. No campagining that disrupts other boards. 5...

I think that there are other reasons other than a potential increase in voter turnout for making sure that we have at least once new judge every year. My main concern is publisher participation. If year after year a publisher submitted products never to be nominated by the same set of...

Submission Coordinator position I suspect that we will continue to have a Submissions Coordinator so long as the publishers want to have a central shipping location (rather than shipping out to the judges individually). Personally, I don't like the SC being a judge, because it means...

BTW, MW, thank you for the colour commentary!

I think that we need one new voice every year, lest we become too predictable or stale. Stir things up a bit.

What influenced your vote? What makes a good judge? So people, I'd be interested to know what has influenced your choice in judge selection. Familiarity with their name? Familiarity/agreement with their views? Quality and/or Number of Reviews posted? Past gaming professional cred? Perceived...

Interesting Discussion! First of all, I'd like to point out that it's only been two and a half days since I opened the poll, and we've already got over 400 votes cast. Last year we only had 542. So yay ENWorlders for voting! Keep it up! I definitely want to encourage more voter turnout...

Don't forget about the four PDF publishers who proudly announce that their product best handled the light bulb changing mechanic, and letting you know where you can buy it. And at least one grammar nazi (most likely British, could be Canuck) who cringes and weeps at an American referring to it...

I agree- I love the past judges, and couldn't say who I'd want to bump, but I was hoping for two new faces on the panel. One will do, though- it's amazing how just one new voice can stimulate discussion! Any hopes of you running again next year? Or being more involved in some capacity, BTW?

Darn. If only there were a gathering place of creative and intelligent gamers with a variety of skills and talents where you could ask for help. ;)

Yes. Yes it should. And as soon as a moderator for General gets around to reading my request from this morning in the Staff Forum, I'm sure it'll be done. :cool:

Last year he was wasn't certain he could dedicate the time (mostly online time) required to properly judge, so I offered him a Board of Directors position instead. He's still involved- just making policy decisions and running the show behind the scenes, rather than judging.

Actually, it means that the older nominees are denied their Dexterity Bonus to AC, so if either of you have levels in Rogue or a similar class, you can get in some additional Sneak Attack Damage. ptttthbt!

Heya Patrick (and everyone), keep the comments coming, I'm a-listening! I also hope that some small and medium-sized publishers will speak up and express their opinions, rather than letting some third party theorize about their wants and needs. Your points about the shipping concerns are...
