And then in addition to that, if voters are comfortable sharing their ballot, more power to them.

This is what I'm in for the most. Let's face it, the most rational of us are prone to being a little saltier than we'd like to be when we feel like we or somebody we missed out on what we would believe to be deserving recognition. It's easy enough to lash out at the awards team but there's no reason for any of them to deserve anything like that.

Agreed. Id be fine with sharing my ballot if someone asked me about it but we all know that if they went public people would throw tantrums directly at other users (either at committee members or other users that may have ended up with more votes). At the end of the day, we have a huge amount of fantastic users and great players and we can't award them all. Sharing ballot votes I think is a great way of giving recognition to players that don't end up in the top 3.
