Although many competitions do give one award per category whether there are multiple deserving entries or no deserving entries (I've been the juror in a case of each of those), a well-considered show may have categories for the sake of making sure the right people give each entry the right sort of attention but not as a balkanization of attention or praise. Comparison is inevitable but one would hope that entries are not really judged against each other but rather against some idea. That would leave the judges free to decide that there were, for instance, no desktop applications worthy of being singled out for attention but there were several games for phones. The problem, of course, is that the judge who recognizes excellence in a web-based information display may not be the best judge of CD covers. How does one set up a system where the right judge is judging any specific item?
