Select Page

The committee of the Diana Jones Awards has announced the shortlist for its 2009 award. Nominees include Dominion, Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition, the Jeepform movement, the Mouse Guard RPG, and Sweet Agatha.

Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to select one of these nominees and argue in the comments that it is worthy, above the other nominees, to win this award, which is “given for ‘excellence’ in the world of hobby-gaming.”

Please don’t argue that some other game that does not appear on the shortlist is more worthy; it may be so, but that’s not the task. Likewise, please don’t attack the futility of comparing an RPG to a movement to a board game; ours is not to attack the assumptions, but to deal with them.

Go!
