Thanks to all your hard work and your votes, Obsidian Portal won a 2nd ENnie. We took the gold in the Best Website category, beating out some really tough competition, especially the Pathfinder Wiki and the d20 Pathfinder SRD.
You won it, we accepted it
Of course, I have to point out that Obsidian Portal is only where it is today thanks to all the hard work of the thousands of GMs and their players who use it every day to make their campaigns more fun. Ryan, Dan, and I keep the machines running, and we add features when we can, but it’s all of you who fill it with great stories, wacky characters, and breathtaking worlds. For that, we express our deepest gratitude.
Pics or it didn’t happen
I didn’t get as many pictures as I’d like, but here’s what I got.
Yes, that’s exactly what I was wearing when I accepted the award. Everyone loved the costume, as the ENnies are about geeks awarding geeks.
Just your average, everyday wasteland savage, riding high on his latest win and enjoying a beer. I thought I was going to a GenCon-style bar, but it turned out to be pretty far outside the con-zone, so everybody was looking at me like I was crazy. I guess you have to be a little crazy to dress like that. Hey, it’s what we do.
Jerry (dreadgazeebo), and I celebrating the win at lunch the next day. Jerry is holding this year’s medal, and I’ve got our gold from 2009.

This site is a godsend to GMs, so many awesome uses, so many people sharing a creative pool, ideas bouncing back and forth, and decent tools to allow those ideas to be given a sort of life, shared, expanded upon and so forth. And the versatility of being able to give your campaign it’s own flavor via html and textile formatting really allows us to make our wikis our own.
Here’s to another Ennie next year and the year after.

I’ve never felt more like I belonged somewhere than I do here at Obsidian Portal.

Booya! Well done gents, I never doubted you for a second! Sorry I missed the 40k game at GenCon, but you know how it is. So much going on! Next year, however, I’m making it a point to FIND YOU and DESTROY YOU!

@Duskreign – Great to hear it!
@Mike – Hopefully the other Bearswarm guys gave it a good review. Otherwise they’re lying, as the game was totally sweet IMO.
