Welcome to the 8th Annual Mod of the Year Awards - the premiere event that celebrates the best creations within the modding and indie gaming scene. Developers have delivered plenty of great gameplay experiences this year, and now it is our turn as gamers to nominate and recognize the best of 2009.
From now until Feb 20th, we shall be sharing a year in review and showcasing the editors' picks of 2009, culminating in the announcement of this year's best mod and game as voted by you. The top mods and games will win the honors of being placed alongside other projects that have gone on to become commercial successes and cement their place in ModDB's hall of fame. And to the winner goes the spoils; ModDB has teamed up with a whole lineup of sponsors that have provided prizes ranging from software to servers to beanbags. Everything to help budding developers excel at their craft.

If anything but APB wins, it'll be a tragedy.

He didnt. Its not a mod on the Renegade engine 
EDIT: Well you could indeed put Renegade-X in. He didnt said Renegade engine specifically. I just assumed that because of the 'based off'...

They haven't really done anything in the last year, or several years for that matter, that would even remotely qualify them for this award. No Renegade mod at this point should even be considered. It's a good mod, but you actually have to earn awards like this. Even in renalert's prime for development we couldn't win it, and it's not going to happen now.
Not that anyone ever took this seriously anyway. The mods attached to the games with the largest communities always win. Very few people actually sift through moddb and try out all the top mods so they can cast a legitimate vote, they just see a post like this on the forum of the mod they play and blindly vote.
Take it for what it is and just have fun making a game of your own, if you want a popular mod, pick the newest game with the largest following and you'll win by default with the talent most of those teams have for the mods listed above.

APB is the only mod in the list that's anything resembling finished. Giving an award to any of the others would be like giving the Nobel Peace Prize to a president in the beginning of his term.
If it really is the way you describe it, then it's just an unavoidable tragedy.
