Also worth noting that ENWorld retains the rights to any game submitted, even those which do not win.
Why do you say that? According to the rules posted on the page to which I linked:
“If you win the contest, you will receive $1000 by PayPal and ownership of your entry will transfer to me. I will acknowledge and credit you as the author of it if I publish it.”
“If you do not win the contest, you retain ownership of your work, but I may approach you about publishing it (possibly in a compilation).”
That’s a change from how it originally appeared, and one for the better. Originally the sentence read ” “The catch? I (as in EN World) get to own and [try to] sell your game, whether you win or not.” The rest of the original version wen ton to emphasize that. I’m glad they’ve made that adjustment to the rules- it certainly sparked some heated discussion in several threads I saw.
