In case you missed The 25th Annual EVVY Awards, view a video recap (zipped H.264 Quicktime movie).
Let’s just say that the judging results angered me to the point of nearly abandoning my Graphics AD position ten-minutes before the Evening Show started. Fortunately, the Chyron Op was an hour late to crew lock down and I had to fill in for him.
I figured that the Hott Guys Calendar wouldn’t win. It’s hard to compete against starving children in third world countries. But Best Website and Best Interactive were clearly my categories to win.
I like Robin Hoyt and the look inside of Robin Hoyt at RobinHoytDotCom and I appreciate her shout-out, but I know that I should have beaten her personal website in both categories. It was a fluke that aesthetic and technical superiority didn’t win (again for the third year in a row). If anything, Plants Have Feelings Too should not only have been nominated over RobinHoytDotCom, but beaten both of us in Best Interactive.
The EVVY Judges clearly failed their task again.

FtEJ = Eff the Evvy Judges?
You got it.
Nice.
