Folks, the What Can I Play? page now has integrated notations for publications and awards, as well as for SuperDuperGames:
http://icehousegames.org/wiki/index.php?title=What_Can_I_Play%3F

The gist of it is that, now, there's a superscript 1 for "per player" or 2 for "both Xeno and Rainbow" notations. Then (in parentheses) it lists each game's full publication and award credits, which are also work as inter-wiki links to the relevant pages.

It works VERY well to "tag" games of interest or Quality: they have longer strings of acronyms after them. Check out Martian Chess or Zendo, for instance: they list almost all of them!
