...why is it that the people that buy their advertising always get the awards ... tell me !!!!

That's simple: many of the top companies in this industry are smart enough to advertise where serious webmasters hang out.

they only allowed like 4 nominations per category this time around

Not true - while we had over 700 nominations this year - which come from webmasters, not XBiz - these were compiled into the four
finalists in each category, from which the panel of judges (there were like 40 judges, NONE of whom work for HELMY or XBiz) selected the winners.

I'm just upset that my site wasn't nominated for what ever that "new service" category is that Stats Remote won... a nomination would'a been nice

Well, as I stated above, the nominations come from webmasters, not XBiz - so all you had to do was nominate yourself - which is something you should do next year. Of course, you need to have a bunch of satisfied customers and friends also nominate you, as 1 nomination does not a finalist make...
There will always be whiners, sore losers, and the misinformed who have nothing better to do than criticize a process that they know nothing about.
One thing I can assure you of - if you ever receive an XBiz Award
- it will because you DESERVE it - NOT because you 'bought' it...
