You spoke, we listened. That's right, we gathered all of the legible responses from this year’s Snow Globes voting and in return offer you a deeper look past the winners.

First, a couple notable pulls from our statisticians. For Rider of the Year, Forest Bailey swept your votes in similar fashion to Rene last year. Decisive, clean, and well-deserved. Meanwhile, Zoi Sadowski-Synnott continued her reign of consistency, landing in the top four for the fourth year running.

Seems like free speech wasn't taken for granted with Men’s Rookie of the Year or Men's Rider of the Year, as those categories saw an impressive number of write-ins. So, either we got the nominees really wrong, or you love speaking up for the homies, or a nice mix of both.

For Video of the Year, Paid Programming and Beyond Medals once again claimed third and fourth place, respectively, for the second year running. And quietly lurking in the results: Sam Anderson, whose heater parts keep stacking while somehow still flying juuust under the radar, snagging third place for Video Part of the Year again. We’re guessing that won’t be the case for much longer.

Also, we’d be remiss not to shout out the three (3) distinct people who voted using fake email variations of “your mom”:

- yourmom@aol.com
- urmom@gmail.com
- yourmomdude@gmail.com

Glad to know some jokes never die. And to 6969zerochance@aol.com, don't worry we are not going to send you spam… promise. Just tell us your email and government name in the comments. 

As always, thanks for voting. Here are the top four results for each category below.
