I've been reading through the ENnies page, and I've got a few questions.I'm assuming that if you do a print product, then it will have to have been released during a particular time period to be eligible. I looked at the ENnies page...<a href="http://www.enworld.org/ennies/index.php?do=home" target="_blank">http://www.enworld.org/ennies/index.php?do=home</a>...but all I could find was:Submissions for the 2006 ENnies will open in early November with a few category adjustments, submission guideline changes, and a new entry form, so publishers are advised to watch the ENnies site for more details.When is the latest you could publish something and still be able to submit it for the 2006 ENnies?(I'm currently working on a new issue, and I'm obviously curious to know when I'd have to have it done by in order to qualify for this years contest).Secondly, I believe the category that it was suggested that I enter was "best fan site" (although looking at some of the nominees I'm thinking, "I can't compete with them!" and reconsidering the whole thing)... but still.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Given that this is for websites (which tend to evolve continuously), rather than for a specific product, do the qualification rules for print products apply here? Does this category judge the entire site as it stands during the qualification period? Or the site as it stands during the judging period (which is presumably a few months later)? or just on content produced during the qualification period?i.e. If the qualification period is Jan 2005 to Dec 2005, and I produce Issue 10 of Critical Miss in February 2006, and then the judges start judging in say March 2006, will they be:a) judging issues 1 to 9 (which were produced between Nov 1998 and Jan 2003) - in which case, I'm guessing entering would be a bit daft, because I'd expect to get marked down heavily for being a "dead" site;b) judging issues 1 to 10;c) disqualifying me on the grounds of having no eligible content (because no issues were produced during 2005).It might sound nitpicky, but I'd quite like to set myself a target of being able to enter next year ENnies, but there's no way I can get Issue 10 finished by the end of the year, so I'd like to know what my options are.</blockquote>
