As for WoTC the only one they probably didn't deserve was for campaign setting since OA is really more of a rules supplement than a setting. The debate over the cover art is silly since art is subjective both pieces are nice and of high quality. IMO the awards are more legitamte when everyone is included if you exclude certain companies the winners can say I won but I don't know if I could have beat the big guys therefore the award is not legitamate.It is possible to have a catagory that would be best product by a small company (small would have to be defined) but most likely that same product would also win or be runner up in a second catagory so the truth would be known anyhow. Though it could give recognition to an excellent product that didn't have the resources that the big guys have.The most important thing however I think this needs to stay fan oriented in some way don't turn it into another Origins Awards run by industry insiders who have their own agendas and sometimes snobbish opinions of what quality really is.I'm tired of hearing about obscure books nobody bought or cares about winning just because so called experts say it is excellent.</blockquote>
