2002
ENnie Awards
The
2nd annual ENnie awards were handed out in a ceremony on Friday, August
9, at Gencon.
ENnies
are given to d20 game products and creators to recognize outstanding achievement
in the realm of Open Gaming. The awards originated with EN
World,
a leading web site devoted to d20 gaming that features resources, industry
news, and message forums.
ENnies
were awarded in 16 standard categories and one special category. The nominees
were selected by a panel of five independent judges.
Final winners
were elected
through open voting by the gaming public.
While
we're thrilled to see so many Wizards of the Coast products and employees
on the list, we want to extend our heartfelt congratulations to all the
winners and nominees and look forward to seeing more great d20 products
for 2003.
