Announcing: The Obsidian Portal Excellence in Innovation Award
Paying It Forward
This year at Gencon we’re going to start a new tradition for Obsidian Portal and its users. We’ve won our fair share of awards and we think it’s only right to dish out some recognition of our own. We’re up to our eyeballs in awesome stuff we dig up weekly for the Haste podcast, and it’s damn hard to not want to individually reach out to all of these people and say “hey, this is awesome!”
That’s why we’re calling upon you to tell us who you think is the very best at revolutionizing the blending of tech and tabletop!

In case you haven’t heard, we won the golden ENnie for Best Website! We’d like to say thanks to everyone who voted and also congratulate the Pathfinder PFSRD crew on their silver ENnie! We’d also like to congratulate all our friends over at Critical-Hits and Gnome Stew awards as well. We’d also like to apologize for not podcasting at the con, as it turns out, we may have bored you all to death anyway.
Thank You All
On behalf of all of us here at Obsidian Portal we’d like to say Thank You to everyone who has made all of this possible. For 3 years in a row now we have been honored by receiving such a prestigious award and we could not have accomplished any of it without you all. Your support, dedication and overwhelming enthusiasm for our site is what keeps us running. We couldn’t have done it without you!
