[Deptheads] Annual Awards

[Eric Burgess]

Sounds like there is just a lot of info there that isn't accurate. Not surprising since that was a transitional year and we relied fully on payouts for it without board games auditing it. That's my fault.

That said, Downing is right about those names. The people are the card game list are the party game folks and vice versa. If we publish this as-is, it'll be obvious something was wrong and embarrassing.

We can go two ways here. I can briefly look at the details this weekend and make some judgement calls on the points and provide a revised sheet (some point values seem very low) or we can switch those, make a simple call on the other points and move on.
