    Need a date for the ENnies? DREAM DATE AUCTIONS!

    Firstly, while I'm not sure I'd describe myself as a dream date, it's very cool to appear as such. Thanks! Secondly, for any Critical Miss fans out there, not only will the winner of this bid get to spend time with myself and Mrs Nexus, Mr and Mrs Bubba should also be there too. Kindof like a...

    Does an ENWorld poll correlate to the Amazon rating?

    That is a very interesting "inverse" bell curve. I don't think it's typical of an Amazon review spread. I think that this is an unusual case in that a lot of those 1 star reviews are probably as much pro-3E as they are anti-4E. i.e. It's a by-product of the way a new edition replaces the old...

    ENnies Voting

    So do we know if it's up or not yet? I can still see the voting booth page if I go directly there, but I can't find a link to it from the main voting page - and I could have sworn there was a link there a couple of hours ago? (Apologies if I sound impatient, but I'd quite like to let people...

    4e--can you write a novel using it?

    Yeah, that's how we thought it worked in Call of Cthulhu, at the end of our last campaign. We ended up dissolving into goo fifty minutes later. (The fact that it turned out that we didn't have a complete copy of the ritual might have had something to do with it, of course).

    The d2: Thoughts?

    Well I used D2s in my RPG Backhanders & Dodgy Deals, featuring the revolutionary Bribe TM system. http://www.criticalmiss.com/issue1/bribe.html :)

    Why the merger of two categories?

    Yeah, and as you point out, my $11 didn't actually include the cost to me of the book. Maybe I should think about doing that next time... :)

    Why the merger of two categories?

    Having thought further about it, I thought sod it, I'll set my views out. Firstly, the carbon footprint issue: I'm not in the slightest bit worried about the carbon footprint involved in mailing six copies of my book to the judges for two reasons: a) as carbon footprints go, it's probably not...

    Why the merger of two categories?

    *ahem* I think it cost me about £5.50 (or $11) to mail each copy of Game Night. (Some of us are the other side of the pond).

    Why the merger of two categories?

    Well it does describe itself as "occasional". :)

    Why the merger of two categories?

    I think he's referring to the fact that the zine "Knowledge - Current Events", which got an honourable mention in the fan product category, last published an issue in November 2007.

    2008 ENnie Awards Nominees Announced!

    I raise a paw and squeek to "hitting 'Refresh' every two seconds like a rat in a Skinner box." I was a bit keen. :)

    2008 ENnie Awards Nominees Announced!

    Hope I'm not jumping the gun here, but the nominees for the 2008 ENnies have just been posted: http://www.ennieawards.com/08/2008noms-1.html And I'll blow my own trumpet at this point by saying that I'm on there, and I'm rather chuffed! Thanks to all involved. :)

    Numbers on the Sheet or Foot in the Mouth?

    Well we've got the one problem, that you've identified, which is whether when we are roleplaying we should use the skills/knowledge/abilities of the character, or those of the player. (You get the same conflict when the barbarian with an Int of 3 played by a nuclear physicist figures out the...

    Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld?

    The advert interface is a lot better. In the past, once you'd created the ad it would simply blast away at full speed until it had exhausted all your impressions. If you were the only person advertising, then you could blow a million impressions in a few days, which is pretty pointless. Also...

    Community Supporter Account?

    Yeah, I was just trying to figure out how to get one, but I can't find the "Support the Site" link that's supposed to be at the top (I'm guessing it isn't yet up for ENW2). Any info as to how to go about signing up?

    Wiki Wiki Wiki

    Are there rules or an etiquette about mentioning yourself, as there are on wikipedia? i.e. If I created a Magnum Opus page, a Jonny Nexus page, a Critical Miss page, and a Game Night page, would that a good thing, a bad thing, or a ban-able thing? I'm not sure I'd do it anyway, because even...
