How many products nominated for an ENnie do you own/are you familiar with?

[Desdichado]

Which is one thing I like about the ENnies--it brings new products to my attention that I otherwise might have overlooked.

Yes, but it does make voting difficult...

That's why its set up where people rate the products they know instead of picking their favorite. Even if we stuck to d20 only no one would have access to it all.

Except for you of course, before being a judge.

I have dangerous denizens and I want to get City of Brass and the Crow God adventure.

Sorry, I'll keep this highjack short...

Most historians don't use the term "Dark Ages" any longer

Really? What do they call that period now?

Back on topic, I only have two products on the list (Thieves' Guild and Book of Fiends), and they're both in separate categories.

You don't have Grim Tales? I am wounded to the core, man.

Anyway, this lack of familiarity definitely made it difficult to choose, so 'not familiar with the product' was by far my most common vote, sometime wholesale for a category.

Just wondering if others are having the same experience.

And that's fine - if anyone can vote on every single product they're either a) an ENnies judge or b) very rich indeed.

The non-d20 categories will, no doubt, be voted in by visitors from other sites, rather than regulars here (with some exceptions).

Just vote where you feel comfortable, and don't vote where you don't. Since it's a rating system, you don't have to know every product in a category in order to vote in it.

Wait a second... Is the voting already open somewhere?

Sorry, voting hasn't started yet. The voting system is being tested in the staff forum, though.

Continuing OT hijack but trying to keep it limited
Having finished university 10+ years ago I'm not up on the current trends. "Late Antiquty' and the 'Early Middle Ages' were both common terms.

I am not arguing with that, and I certainly think the 'not familiar with the product' option is a good feature.

I do feel that this year I'm much less familiar with the products nominated than last year. Obviously, this depends on my individual buying/gaming habits. Again, I was just wondering if other posters are in the same boat.

Has there been a solution to allow shared IPs in a single workplace (without compromising the vote integrity)?
