The guy who kept picking up the awards for Privateer ... that was definitely the highlight of the show. The guy was practically getting standing ovations by the end.

The Ambient girls were flip-flappin' cute and did a great job announcing their category.

Hey Eric and All!

I'm "That Privateer Press Guy" or more aptly named "Sir Not Supposed to Be Appearing in this Award Ceremony Except as a Cameo for the Monsternomicon" ;-)

I have to say the Ennies were the highlight of my GenCon and I look forward to coming again next year... as for the Ambient girls... they were adorable and indeed did a great job announcing their category... I only wish I could have gotten their autographs before I left.

Take Care,
Joseph Miller

Re: Psion's report!

Privateer was probably the biggest source of amusement during the show. Monsternomicon was sucking down a lot of prizes, but there was only one guy there (whose name I never caught) that submitted ten monsters. He had nothing to do with about half the prizes like art and graphical presentation, but accepted them all with humor with quips like "I had nothing to do with this."

Psion,

The Ennies were a great source of amusement for me as well... and I hope to have "nothing to do with" the Ennies next year ;-)

Privateer Press Guy has got to be given some recognition for being such a humble good sport about picking up "his" companies 312 seperate awards despite having virtually no hand in any of them

Thanks and I hope to have "no hand" in next years Ennies ;-)

*That Privateer Press guy at the Ennies. I was sitting between Emergent and Cthulu's Librarian, and we were all cracking up.

That would be me and I was honored to accept the awards on Privateer Press's behalf... and also happy that I could provide a little comic relief for the Ennies.

Sorry, but from now on he's Privateer Press Guy in my mind

To simply be in Teflon Billy's mind is an honor... or sorts ;-)

Sunday: Enjoyed a seminar with the Game Mechanics (Stan!, JD Wiker and a Matt XX (cannot remember last name--good men all), Joseph Miller (the now-very-famous Privateer/Mongoose freelancer from the ENnies)

Great Seminar and it was good to meet you too Bret!

- Ennies! I have to agree with everyone that "That Guy" was hilarious, he deserved an award for his acceptance speeches.

Thanks very much... like I said I only partially deserved one of those awards, but I was honored to fill in for the Privateers who did not make it... ;-)

As for an award... well I know Wil Upchurch is pushing for the "Joseph Miller Award"... perhaps for most amusing award recipiant ;-)

Friday up early for seminar, games, dealer room (again), Art Show, Auction, and the Ennies! Great program this year and very professional and well done. “That Chap” that may or may not have been part of Privateer Press stole the show and Morrus and Eric are quite the host. If you missed them, I hope you catch them next year as they did not disappoint. Congratulations to all the nominees and winners.

Hand of Evil,

Rest assured that I am indeed one of the contributors to the Monsternomicon... I wrote 10 of the monsters 9and commented on many of the others)... and that the Ennies indeed found their home at the Privateer Press booth despite some pressuring from my peers to hold them ransom and send paper clipping notes instead ;-)
