[QUOTE="Queen_Dopplepopolis, post: 3330374, member: 14323"] [b] Do you think that the ENnies should have a codified set of rules for how they should be run, including a specific list of points that the judges should use for each category?[/b] The ENnies, in my experience, are constantly evolving. Each year, things are changed and adapted to fit with industry innovations and (hopefully) gamer's likes and dislikes. And, I think that's the way it should be. Moreover, I think that gaming products are simply too subjective to be judged on a point-based scale. [b]Or do you think that the ENnies should be like they are currently, and the judges voting on the rules each year?[/b] I think the current system has worked out quite well. [b]Do you think that the ENnies being so intimately tied to the World's Largest d20 Fan Site might mean that the basic voting pool for the ENnies might be a bit biased towards d20 products in general?[/b] I think that the results for past years speak for themselves: d20 products are not favored. The winners come from the entire RPG spectrum. [b]Do you think that the ENnies should move everything over to their own, independant website (which they already have), to have all aspects of the ENnies in 1 single central location? Why or why not?[/b] Discussing the ENnies on many forums, while a bit of a struggle for the judges, is a fine way to talk about the awards. [b]Do you think moving the ENnies off EN World would cause a drop in the overall number of voters?[/b] fusangite said that moving voting off of ENWorld increased voting... and I believe what he says. [b]Do you plan on playtesting any of the material?[/b] I have already warned my gaming group that they will be my subjects! *evil laughter* [b]What prompted you to consider being a judge for the ENnies?[/b] It was actually The Universe's idea. He said, "you'd make a good judge. Can I nominate you?" And, after careful thought, decided it would be a fun, interesting thing to do. More importantly, I think that having women running is very empowering... and having a woman on the panel would be even more empowering. So, I'm hoping, by having Xath and I in the running will increase the chances that a woman's voice will be heard on the ENnies panel. [b]Would statements by those "in the industry" affect your opinions on a product?[/b] No. [/QUOTE]
