Did they really think that taking this approach would endear them to potential clients, or prove their superior PR skills? Idiots. How incredibly arrogant, and stupid.

Will definitely have to follow the links and read more. But, one question remains: Will WAR submit and compete in next year's competition? If so, it'll have some explaning to do. It seems like you are dead-on when it has its nose bent out of joint. However, while awards are nice, it's what we do for our clients that really matters. It seems the award-winning stuff (more creative, I believe) is not necessarily results-getting work for clients. Mike Ellee,
