Well, the Spielfrieks user group just finished the first round of voting for the 2015 Meeples Choice Awards (using our spanking new voting application).  There was a 7-way tie for 24th, so we wound up with 30 nominated games.  It’s a bunch of excellent and varied titles, as usual.  Now we proceed to the final round of voting, in which the top three games of last year are selected.  If you’re a member of Spielfrieks, but you didn’t vote in the first round, you can still join in at http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/spielfrieks.

The 30 nominated designs are given below.  The final results will be announced next week.
