This is a unique and very subjective Sub-Award. It goes to the designer who displayed the best support of their 2008 published game or supplement. This could be through the creation of forums or mailing lists about their game, their response times to questions about their games, the designer's use of marketing to get the word out about their game, the organization of the game's website, and of course support materials like free downloads, rules, starter kits, materials, adventures and supplements.

THE Best Support FOR 2009 IS...

Fiasco by Jason Morningstar / with 52 points

Monthly scenarios!

The free monthly playsets are wonderful, each a fresh look at the game.

All those lovely settings.

The Playsets of the Month are a high watermark in Indie RPG support.

Bully Pulpit Games have led the way this year with their exciting, well-judged 'Playset of the Month' initiative. Simple, effective, and engaging support which seems to have struck a chord with players.

A free playset every month? Are you crazy?
