best ��

excellent: the best performer; the best grade of ore.
2.    Most satisfactory, suitable, or useful; most desirable: the best
solution; the best time for planting.

Not sure what it has to do with the question, but my suggestion to the OA
folks towards improving the PBM award determination was to use a rating
method along the lines of Flagship's, or the now extinct Paper Mayhem.

It's really not that tricky a question...

Do you think the Origin Awards system does an OK (or better) job of
determining the best PBM game of the year?
