As far as Furry Force beating MLP, I have to say I'm sort of shocked. Though I know some site owners with particular influence were pushing for it, I was skeptical that they would actually pull ahead of the Ponies. Particularly after their strong 4th season, which I think was one of the better in the series.
The even funnier part is, the creators of Furry Force are probably going to take more notice of it than the MLP animation staff... or maybe even the bronies (who are not furries). Since humor is what they do, I think the best way to take this award would be humbly, gracefully, and most importantly with at the very end of the humble acceptance end it with three simple words "Suck it, Bronies".
Haha... it was cool to see CollegeHumor put out their own promotion urging votes for this award. SySable commented that a lot of new voting came in when I gather it typically gets only a small few thousands of votes. One mention connected to a 3,000,000 viewed video must really tip that. MLP is obviously a huge level above, but they didn't put out any such notice.
It's kind of amazing, because it's semi-mainstream "fursploitation" (closer to CSI or reality shows than fan created) that specifically notices this subculture- but they actually put care into a relationship with us. Is it a first?
Animation creation is so time consuming that fans don't put out a lot that could compete - the only fan product for that award was audio-only.
As a comedy website, you know they will probably play this up afterwards, in some ways it's like getting a Razzy award. I will ask them how they feel about it. It's good for the Ursas to be valued!
