The fact that the reaction of a bunch of people when you point something out about the voting is "Welcome to ISFL LMAO" should say enough about the voting.

I would like to give a sincere apology to @Kotasa for my horrible mistake. I should have voted you 2nd for CBotY. While I do not deserve it i hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.

You have already atoned for your sins my son. As I see you are a lover of Hot Salads know that you atone every lunch break at work and every night at the diner table. Thank you

I'm going to take this as an honest criticism and ask - what about the voting is bad? I haven't paid attention to the league (and I don't vote, just count them) but is it the method of counting? Is it the voters? The committee? If we want to improve, I want to know what areas need work.

Personally, although I'm not james, I have problems with all 3 of these. I see an issue when someone gets 50% of first place votes on first ballot, and then the award ends up going to someone else after 3 or 4 different runoffs. I'm not entirely sure how to solve that.

A REALLY big problem comes with the voters. There's unabashed homerism all over the place, that also happens to be inconsistent, some teams don't appear to do research in regards to the candidates, and due to a long history in the league there's probably some teams who specifically don't vote for other teams' players. The unabashed homerism and "what the actual hell were these guys smoking when they voted this" votes are more blatant than anti-team bias, though. As for the committee, I'm doing a bit of writing about that right now, but suffice to say I don't feel that there's enough looking over people getting on the ballots, and I think the MVP ballots need to be changed in some way.
