[QUOTE="Andy Kitkowski, post: 682252, member: 9532"] Hey all, I'm trying to make a shout out for a new awards ceremony that's starting up this year, called the "2002 Indie RPG Awards". It's basically like an Origins or ENnie awards, but not for the "industry giants"- Instead, it's for the small-press publishers and indie designers who make all those great games and supplements behind the scenes but never get any credit for it. I've pretty much put together this awards ceremony from scratch, so this is the Trial Year. If everything goes good, we'll keep them up from next year on. Even though the majority of d20 designers write supplements for D&D, there are some people who come up with original games and game worlds that use the d20 system in a new way. This award is to these types recognize games and their designers. Anyway, if you've released a free or for purchase INDIE RPG game or supplement in 2002 (using your own system, or d20/OGL), please head over to my site and register. If you've released a for purchase game in 2001-2002, you can actually vote on these awards. If you know anyone who has designed Indie RPGs, please get the word out. Also, since it's all for a good cause (getting a moderate cash prize out to a creative game designer), I've turned on an option for these awards that allows fans and folks who can't normally vote- You can actually BUY votes for the awards, which will increase the prize pool for the winner and show support for all those designers. Thanks- This isn't meant to be a general PR, because I'm actually looking for original d20/OGL game designers (not straight D&D supplement designers). But if you are one of these indie designers, it's about time you've gotten the recognition you deserve. The awards are at [url]http://www.rpg-awards.com[/url] Thanks again! -Andy [/QUOTE]
