  1. You say "pretty much" all of them are well-deserved. Which aren't, in your opinion?

  2. Hm, almost all of those nominations are meaningless to me... makes me notice how out of touch I am with the mainstream "RPG industry"! (A situation I am quite happy with :)

  3. @uwarr I don't know, I just think it may have been a bit of a cop-out to put the D&D Rules Compendium in there. Yeah, good layout but it's not wholly new ground.

  4. I just read about Gameplaywright Press in Kobold Quaarterly. I hope they win for their products.

  5. What does "Honourable Mention" mean?

  6. Generally speaking, Honorable Mention means you performed well in a competition but fallen just outside the prize category.

    What this means as far as the Ennie is concerned is that the Honorable Mentions listed are not eligible to receive votes for 1st-2nd-3rd (etc.) prize in their respective categories. I believe voting starts this week.

  7. I saw a tweet from the Ennies today saying that voting opens on Friday. I'll provide a link when the time comes.
