Both major viewpoints are covered that way.

Lets say you have 5 pre-selected judges, and 500 audience members. Basically each judge vote would count for 100 audience votes. It'd involve a bit of math and more careful calculation, but I think the results would be interesting.

I mean basically, it's always been one or the other for individual awards (I realize there are contests that have judge awards and audience awards and I'm all for that). So for the awards where it's just pre-selected judges, we're already giving them that voting weight. I'm just saying, why not try to combine the two different aspects to see what kind of results you get. You'd be melding the opinions of more experienced judges with the general audience vote to come up with a (hopefully) more well-rounded pick. I just think it'd be interesting to try.
