this is so stupid shut up like can you imagine if any notable fraction of the 8000+ person academy whined like this

What is the incentive to vote if you don't even get to come to the party you're voting for? Just the honor of being able to be bribed and wined and dined by execs?

Don't get me wrong, I love a ticky box, but the Gloves seem like the only awards that might be kind of fun

I would like to un-incentivize lots of people from providing their opinions in general but there a lot of awards given where not everyone who votes is part of the ceremony. I would WANT to be invited but also there are so many honorees and stuff it would be hard to scale that up from 80 to 300 PLUS the honorees I guess. Idk.
