Should look into it maybe though.

A couple of questions / ideas:
1. Will voters still only rank their top 3? Or could they now order all of their preferences, since IRV allows for an easy way to handle that? It could lead to fewer complaints/issues from "X left Y off their ballot completely"
2. This would definitely be a lot more complex to present on stream or in the open ballots afterwards. Thus it would likely require users' trust that things are being handled correctly and I don't know that users trust the people in charge of awards very much right now? Although a serious attempt to fix things would definitely help.
1. Yes, only top 3. Things get a lot more annoying for me programming if I have voters rank all choices. I also don't really have a problem with voters leaving some people off of their ballots so long as they vote on a top 3.
2. This is a two pronged thing I think. First, I'm not planning on putting the vote counts on the stream anymore because it would be really complicated - instead I'd lay it out like I did in the article when publishing the results. As for the lack of trust for awards - I think that's on me making bad mistakes. Awards Committee has gotten a lot less controversial with their picks recently and I think this proposal would help make sure the best player gets the award.
