Congratulations to HumAnnoyd and team for winning CotM.....again. For anyone who wants to see how great aesthetic design can be implemented into the standard OP template on a campaign, you need look no further than this site. Such beauty. Such innovation. Most decidedly well deserved win!

It is possible for a GM to be awarded more than once, but general feeling of the CotM committee is that for a GM is to be considered a further win, it should be for a new campaign that is quite different from the previously awarded campaign, and not just an extension, sequel or very similar campaign with a different name.

Just to clarify - I have won with my Dresden Files RPG campaign. But, we as a group, switched to the Dresden Files Accelerated game, redid the whole city and have completely new PCs. But that wouldn't qualify for another award because it is set in the same city. Is that correct?
Belayed congratulations to HumAnnoyd ... honestly, every time I start to feel pretty good about my Portals pages, I go look at his to remind myself that I've got a long way to go! :D
Hello and happy 4th of July to all my stateside portal people! This particular 4th is made even better by the fact that our latest Campaign of the Month winner has been posted! A very big congrats to RigilKent and all of the players of The Verge!
When you're looking up at the night's sky tonight, and those fireworks are about to begin, take a moment and think of The Verge!
Thanks for the kind words RigilKent. And congratulations on the CotM win! I really love the new Traveller game and I look forward to sinking my teeth into your campaign.
Congratulations to @RigilKent and team for CotM July. (I see Kallak has listed the others as well). This campaign has many great design elements and RigilKent's interview on the Blog is great!

Hey all! I haven't gotten to make the image for the forum sidebar here yet, so I'll be swapping that out sometime after the weekend, but I don't want that to hold up the announcement of the August 2020 CotM winner any longer. A very big congratulations to GM philip_andrew_stevens and the players of In Search of Hidden Dragons! Highly recommended.
