Addressing some concerns over the DBAs, what should change for next year?

Hello again everyone,

I've gotten a lot of comments on the DBA results thread that expressed a lot of disappointment and concerns over the results of the awards this year. To tell the truth, I am somewhat disheartened by some of the more negative feedback, but I want to address this feedback now while it's still fresh in everyone's minds. In doing so I want to make the next DBAs much better than the ones held this year. What I would like to know is what should I change for next year, what can I add, and what should be kept the same. All suggestions and feedback are heavily appreciated and I will do my best to address everything and take as many suggestions into consideration as possible.

Thank you
