Gonzo, you are correct on this one. Most "industry award" deals are pretty much built on whoever is paying the bills that month. While good companies often rise to the top, there is often still a tinge of "who bought ads, who didn't".

I can still remember a certain based program owner (who would like us to think is no longer in the business) giving Fay Sharp what for because her voting program didn't count his clickbot (or whatever method used) properly and denied his program an award many years ago. I learned a whole bunch about awards shows that day, lessons that will never be forgotten.

Congrats to the winners.
