[QUOTE="Terramotus, post: 4485390, member: 7220"] This is ridiculous. It's not pretending to be an elf for 5 hours a week that can at times make me feel embarrassed about my hobby, it's tempest in a teapot garbage like this. This is not Serious Business, nor should it be. 1. If you think the awards are stupid and biased, don't submit, don't participate. 2. Public resignations and public complaining about situations you're involved in never make you look good, no matter how right you are. It's rather Buddhist, really. 3. Judges are supposed to judge, and they're elected to boot. I don't care about the results unless there is evidence that the guidelines aren't being followed. If you don't like the choices, run for judge, but make sure to submit any of your own work or work affiliated with your own. We wouldn't want favoritism. Furthermore, I think that some individuals are revealing more than they think they are when they refuse to trust the judgment of others without strict guidelines. 4. If you're only doing a podcast out of love, then why is this that important? Show me lost profits leading to lost livelihoods and then I'll care. It shouldn't matter anyway; sustained quality always rises to the top. 5. Morrus, and others involved in the Ennies: thank you for your time and effort. Don't let trash like this get you down.
