Well, congrats to Fry, I guess.
For me, DeviantArt's DDs are worth nothing (or close to it).
Practically all of them are just random pieces that the admins/people-in-charge-of-DA picked because they liked them (or people recommended to them) rather than based on quality. So DDs are just biased.
Not to mention that there is a pixel art DD almost everyday.
Then again, some might like being in the spotlight of an ass kissing community for a day, but meh.
