[QUOTE="Nikchick, post: 1721006, member: 344"] :mad: I was going to come into this conversation and offer some advice, born of my own hard-won, first-hand experiences being involved with the Origins Awards and GAMA, as well as perhaps sharing some observations from my seventeen years in the industry. However, it is clear that "scrappy newcomer" SpoonyBard has everything well in hand and has made up his mind that there is no need to hear from the likes of me. Surely no one involved in the Origins Awards has had as pure a heart as he! Surely his prejudices against the awards and the people involved in them are based in truest fact! Surely the ENnies succeed purely because the people involved are just that much smarter, stronger, and better than those pathetic fools who administer the Origins Awards. You want to talk about feeling "slapped in the face" here, SpoonyBard? I'll give you a run for your money. :mad: Nicole [/QUOTE]
