Now that the lede is out of the way, I wanted to include a short personal note. As the person who’s looked and published your ratings every week, I want to thank everyone who voted this year, no matter if it was just for one poll or all of them. I feel that, as a community and with the large numbers that are aggregated in these ratings, y’all reflect performances quite accurately. Thanks for your participation!
