[QUOTE="eyebeams, post: 3323262, member: 9225"] The awards are closely associated with ENWorld, which is partnered with the EN Publishing brand. Sounds good. If it really is too strenuous, I'd say three years is a minimum and five sounds about right. One year is way too short. Being on a comp list isn't payment, even in exchange for playtesting. If it needs to be clarified, then we can certainly say that playtesters who receive copies of what they playtested don't count. (There's an alternate solution I can think of that would be fair but make lots of people angry, and that's to divide the RPG market into amatuer, pro and semipro categories with set thresholds for payment, and disallow people who've done pro or semipro work to get involved. The disadvantage is that a lot of people who thinking of themselves as being industry creatives would be counted as amatuers or semipro workers by any reasonable standard, and this would offend a lot of people in the penny or two a word bracket.) Maybe. Nobody put a gun to your head or mine to work on an RPG product. I'd be happy if neither of us could ever be involved in the awards in any official capacity. One thing I would like companies to be involved in, on the other hand, is awards promotion. Disinterest in promoting the OAs certainly didn't help it any. Depends on whether they were paid money.
