AnimeFunTV wrote:Peoples Choice Awards
First off, I would like to say that there was some confusions and disappointments in the peoples choice awards voting. There seemed to me a few people who didn't appreciate to vote and really messed with the voting process. However I counted the votes more than twice so I hope everyone at this point would appreciate the Peoples Choice Awards, because this will be the LAST time we will have that voting process. This due to more of scheduling and the time it takes to have people vote, which took over 2 hours...

He wants to stuff A-Kon into an AMV room? Ambitious.

Wait, you mean each voter (ideally) gave a score to EACH video?
Even if that is probably fairer than allowing each voter to vote for only one video in each category like most places seem to do, it's no wonder that the attendees didn't want to take the time for something like that.
If you kept the audience voting but changed the system to something simpler, you'd probably get a better voter turnout while requiring less work on your end to count everything up.
