Give it a couple of years (much like roll20 has been out for a couple of years, as best I can tell) and then see how much everyone likes it. :)

ObTopic: Congrats! I'm not a big fan of these types of awards (I burnt out on popularity contests back in grade school) and especially not on Gen Con/EN World's clone of the Origins awards, but I'm happy for you guys.
+1 to this and spot on....
As Parody points out its more to do with popularity. Not taking away from LWD achievement, it is the best offering available for what it specifically does... warts and all...

Personally some categories are too generic anyway.... its like comparing apples to oranges.

Lastly, IF GOLD was defined as best available, then Anna Meyer would have won for cartography. Her work is far superior to the others nominated..... but as she graciously said, "it was an honor just to be recognized"
