This is why there is an after action thread and we lambaste the moderation of the event and then refuse to do it ourselves the next year.
UCA you might want to go ahead and start that thread, pretty sure there will be some pretty healthy mud slinging and I am eager to both defend and attack you. I suggest even taking some of this thread and splitting it off into that discussion, no reason to take away from the winners. Otherwise the awards themselves may lose more of their luster.
The reality is we don't have to like each other to ensure quality builds are recognized here.
I actually think these builds are pretty well done.
