[QUOTE="Mexal, post: 5215792, member: 6753"] Likewise, my hat will be in the ring again... even though I haven't quite got over the shock of having been elected last year! It is time-consuming, but not in a bad way. Given the amount of reviewing I do, anyway it has been more a change of focus, with the ENnies submissions being prioritised over anything else in the RPG Resource 'review pile', rather than a change of activity. As I've mentioned on the ENnies blog it has led to new ways of looking at product: JUDGING is a different beast from REVIEWING - it has been a fascinating process. But it's not about ME, it is all about the gaming community and trying to look at the submissions in the light of what is really, really good... sometimes the little gems that might be overlooked, sometimes confirmation and celebration of something that we have all embraced over the past year. Certainly if you are prepared to put the time in and sustain that effort over a year, and are ready to look at a vast range of material, some of which may not be to your personal taste but all of which deserves proper objective consideration, do run. You're the sort of person we want for ENnies judge! (But talk to your family or whoever you share your residence with.
