Would probably result in more accurate votes, since a lot of the users that are getting voted for haven't actually reported all that much in the last year, which I think isn't just the case for this category, but multiple categories. Users reputation has x carries over through the years, rather than rewards users for that year in particular, which is a shame.

The only issue with that is I don't think many moderators have voted in the past, and even then only globals really have a good view on it all since they receive all reports, and have a much better idea of those that are contributing than me as an example who only covers certain sections.
