Pretty harsh picking on a shitty retail ad. I’d be more ashamed of being in it’s company if I worked on VB, Hungry Jacks, Kellogs, Nurofen, Telstra or Nescafe.

It’s great you do these readers choice awards; however, links to the blogs/campaigns/agencies would have been handy (and I’m sure the nominees would appreciate it too). I’m keen to check out the crème de la crème of Australian SMM, so I guess I’ve got a date with google this afternoon.

Tim – You have turned awkward yet endearing into a fine art. Well done mate! Love your stuff. I don’t need to say how awesome your band choice was. Really well done.

This looks like it would be the most boring, horrible award show ever.
