[QUOTE="Crothian, post: 1686795, member: 232"] How the judges voted probably will not become public. But I can say that no one judge favored a certain company. We don't just vote we discuss the material and its a lot harder to be biased and not be called on it in these discussions. Also, a few of us were won over by things we normally don't like. I'll use myself as an example here. I was not looking forward to reading BESM d20 and the other anime RPG books. I am not an anime fan. But in reading the books and the qualty was just so there that there was now way I could read through it and not be impressed. Then there is Kult. I have zero interest in this game. Even after reading I will never play it, its a drepessing setting and not the type of game I want to run. But again it was well put together. I can't deny that. As a judge one has to recognize what your bias is and work to get past it. [/QUOTE]
