Help Pick Theme Music For the Nominees! -    Today, 08:11 PM
So, as you may or may not know, every ENnies nominee needs to pick out music. If they win, a 10-15 second snippet of this music plays when they get their award when its announced at the ceremony. Sometimes the selections are funny, sometimes they're good, and sometimes they're bad.

Here's a few suggestions we came up with:

Yup. Chances are we'll have to either miss the ceremony or move the seminar, neither of which is a great prospect.  Undecided

Or you could have a competition and pick a fan (or two) who will be attending GenCon to accept the award(s) on your behalf.

As for theme music, James Bond is good, but I'd actually lean more towards Secret Agent Man.

I've alway been fond of the Peter Gunn theme by Mancini myself. Wink

This just in from the ENnie Awards staff and Crafty Games...

"Due to a communication error, World on Fire was incorrectly nominated for the Best Electronic Book category. While it is a worthy product the book also appeared in print, giving it an unfair advantage over PDF-only releases. Thus, Crafty Games has withdrawn the product from consideration with the thanks of the ENnies staff."

The For Your Consideration $5.00 off sale will still commence, running from July 21 to August 3 (though, of course, the sale will now simply celebrate the ENnies' honorary nomination, which stands, rather than a potential win).

Crafty Games will still be in the running for Best Publisher, as we've already received the requisite nominations. Thanks to everyone who put in for that.

Happy voting, and Stay Crafty!

Bummer. I was hoping the page blurb was just inaccurate.  Angry

The nominees in each category are determined by a panel of five judges. For whatever reason, World on Fire was only included in the Best Electronic Book category, for which it is not eligible. We can't really speak for the details beyond that but withdrawing from the vote is the only fair solution.

Sorry to hear that Pat (and Alex, Scott, and Steve). I've got to admit though, this isn't the first thing that has made the ENnies less appealing this year Sad
