Just picked this up today, through the end of the month, you can vote in the 2005 Scrye Player’s Choice Awards online at http://surveys.krause.com/?id=297.  The survey is a little basic in it’s design, but it’s easy to get through with only a handful of questions.  This time around they are asking about favorite 2005 releases, as well as all-time favorites in categories like CCG’s, CMG’s, board games, and role-playing games.  Make your voice heard today!
