View From Valehaven Awards 2012


Here are the results for the 2012 View From Valehaven Awards. One change from the Awards Ceremony is to be found in the Best New Monster Concept category: the Blackwood Wraiths had their votes spread over three monster names instead of being consolidated into one vote count for the one monster; the total has been adjusted and the Blackwood Wraiths are now tied for second within the category.
