Some stats:
Most votes for one candidate went to milagros for Contribution, he got 7 votes which was the highest amount possible with one jury member missing. Zweq got 6 votes in Battler, also being the highest amount possible since two jury members were missing.
Least amount of votes for a winning candidate went to Jappe2 for Designer and talli for Replay: These got 2 votes (which is the lowest amount possible to be able to win; the win was decided by the amount of community points).
Most 5-pointers from the community in the Third Step went to milagros for Contribution, with 27 5-pointers (which is a new record).
Most votes for one candidate from the community in the Third Step went to both Zweq for Internalist and milagros for Contribution, with votes from 34 people (which are all who voted in Internalist and Contribution).
milagros's 158 points from the community in Contribution is a new record, noone has ever receieved that many points in the Third Step.
axxu won the Externalist award for the 4th year in a row.
WNO won the Team award for the second year in a row.
Zweq won 5 GAAs this year (6 if counting Team), which is more than anyone has gotten in previous GAAs (noone had won more than 3 before).
For the first time in GAA history, the winner of WR was not driven on Apple Harvest and the winner of Replay was not driven on a pipe level.

[20:36:55] * Kopaka sheds a tear
15. Community Award, milagros
[20:39:28] <SveinR> The winner has changed the way people play elma, and people feel that it's due to him that the scene is alive. In January 2007, the first version of belma was released. In the coming months it was developed more and more, and today it's probably the main focus of most people who play elastomania.
[20:39:37] <SveinR> People who voted for the winner has also given him the award based on other things, for instance that he is considered as a very nice guy who's always willing to help others. People have also mentioned his playing abilities, like his WR on Long Haul, his style-inventing, and his work as an anti-cheater.
[20:39:47] <SveinR> But the main reason behind his getting this award, is the remarkable dedication he has shown to the scene and to the game by creating belma; improving the elastomania and battling experience for so many players.
[20:40:13] <SveinR> milagros!
[20:40:27] <teh_mila> wow!
[20:40:47] <teh_mila> wr was so aazing

End speech:
[20:43:14] <SveinR> And with that, the Golden Apple Awards 2007 has come to an end!
