From this, next year, everyone will be paying much more attention to how things are done, who is up for what award, and how the whole thing is structured.  So, even though we might argue for a while, only good things will end up turning out from this.  Also, I am not saying that all of WotC books are bad books, I just think that they were not good enough to win based on quality of book alone.  That, however, does not mean its not the most popular book within the category.</blockquote>
