Hi che. I agree about nominations for specific catagories, however I would suggest first setting up a page listing all the games released in 2007, ---- perhaps with links where appropriate.
That way all devs will get a fair chance at nominations, and players will have the oppertunity to see just what has been produced, and perhaps even try out a game they hadn't tried before. pluss if this is publicized in the wider context of accessibility related websites like whitestick.co.uk and maybe other media and organizations as well (I could go and badger the Rnib to put news in their publications), ----- we might even attract some new players as well. Nominations could then be submitted, ---- either with some sort of online form or via E-mail, then the voting for the games in each catagory could be set up as you suggest. I really think this should be as widely publicized as possible, sinse it's an occasion to draw a lot of interest in audio games from various quarters, as well as a chance for the player community to give their opinions on games in a formal sense. Well that is my thought anyway. Beware the Grue!
