You can even break the enthusiasts community into factions. Disney aficionados, including yourself and I, are going to rate something like Expedition Everest very highly because what we consider a good ride is going to be very different than what say a hard core “roller coaster fanatic” will prefer.
My point being, every awards system is in essence “inaccurate” unless you somehow quantify and remove the subjectivity out of it. Not to say that I think Mitch Hawker’s Coaster Poll and Golden Ticket Awards are good (I actually feel they are both completely inaccurate), just I don’t agree with the reasons you presented.
