Perhaps you werent present in Vegas a year or two ago when the 'winner' for a certain award was changed at the last minute... Right before they were announced live.. Because the company in question hadnt won any of the other awards they were 'nominated' for up until that point in the evening.

As one of the owners of the company that 'won' told me later that night...

'it doesnt matter if you win or lose an award, if you think these awards mean anything to anyone in the industry (except the organizers) you are kidding yourself'
I've never looked to be nominated for anything, but being nominated let's me know that someone out there has acknowledged the work I do, and that feels good. It also feels good being acknowledged by write ups in industry mags (not paid write ups either).

The inuendo in this thread is disturbing.
