"We want members to be able to vote."

You do ?
"3. Mods/Admins vote for the AOY."

This is wrong wrong wrong ! The most important vote
is taken away from us. You tell us that we can vote
monthly but cannot vote for the big one ? Well thats
the way it is it seems but I don't have to like it !!
This AOY voting method is totally devoid of logic !

The 12 AOY artists have been chosen, just like the
nominee's for AOM. We should be able to vote for the AOY
just like we get to vote for the AOM. Anything else is
ludicrous !
