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

If it was not "that tricky a question" then people wouldn't always moan about
awards so much and they would not generate as much controversy.

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

An Okay Job, yes.

Flying Buffalo games do often seem to win, and I've seem Middle Earth there
too, and my own game, DungeonWorld won Best New Game once.  FB's games are all
pretty fantastic and have stood the test of time better than most others, so
why not?  Middle Earth is an absolutely spectacular game according to just
about everybody I know who has ever played and has also been around a long
time.  DungeonWorld, I obviously can't comment on too much, but it is a market
leader and has a pretty good reputation.

I'd like to know what games you think *should* have won in their place?  And if
you're game was entered and did not win, is it now a major player and market
leader?  Because if it isn't, why do you think it deserved to win?
