I don't personally agree with the format of popular vote, but I've accepted that it's just the way it is.
One thing I do disagree with is the competition portion. Yes, you should acknowledge quality work in various aspects, but competition is the key factor to why we're seeing these results. (I may have read into this incorrectly?)

1. My suggestion was in no way intended to undermine or compete against bmutha and the excellent folks that put on the award show with a voting system.
2. My idea was a self contained forum system to recognize outstanding achievement in quality or innovation in statues.
3. Think of them as parallel or distinct systems to hopefully better satisfy members who enjoy competition and who want to see certain pieces recognized.
4. My rough concept for 2019 is whenever a statue has something remarkable or noteworthy a member could nominate it for recognition. Be a forum section for nomination threads. Users would be expected to give compelling reason for their nominee. The tricky part is I'm not sure how you'd do gatekeeping to officially award a piece. Could do a yea or nay system among users to incorporate a consensus of a nominee to be recognized.
5.This is all intended to be positive for fans and companies.
