Looks like World of Tanks has been nominated for a couple awards in the 2011 Game Developers Choice Online Awards:

Best Online Technology [Competitors: Cityvile (Zynga), DC Universe Online (SOE), Rift (Trion Worlds), LEGO Universe Online (LEGO/Warner Bros)]

Best Community Relations [Competitors: Wizard101 (KingsIsle), Minecraft (Mojang), EA Sports FIFA Superstars (Playfish/EA), World of Warcraft (Blizzard)]

The awards ceremony will take place Wed., Oct 4. at GDC Online in Austin, where BigWorld will be in full force, crawling about the conference and centered at booth #203.

Wargaming.net just topped off their awards list with Game of the Year a couple weeks ago at the European Games Award ceremony at Gamescom.

The whole team at BigWorld will be rooting for them, many of us in person.
