Wait a minute--is there an implication here that the non-judges are
less influenced by hybridizer names than judges, and that they have
dirtier hands? I hope that's not true, for the sake of their hands
if nothing else.
I do think that to fix this right we need to introduce some ugly
complexity, either by paying some special attention to cross-regional
preferences or by collecting ratings instead of votes as Tom suggested,
or both.

This part may be fun--to see if the geeks have different preferences
than the non-geeks.
