Right, but say for example I release a game and it's winning GOTW, so you decide to make a bunch of fake accounts to vote for something else. You couldn't do it in response if there was a waiting period. If you have a dozen fake accounts already it's a different matter, but most users don't.
I'm assuming that a significant fraction of fake GOTW votes are negative ones, and also that the majority of (legitimate) current voters are existing members so it wouldn't be overly discriminatory.
When it comes to voting for your own game, there's not really anything that can be done about it which is fair to other users.

but I do not think you should earn 20 DC points per year, because that makes people register fake accounts, let them silently be, and then vote on lots of crap a year later.

I agree with game reviews. I presonally like to write game reviews and if you had a higher point award for reviews it would not only encourage members to play more games but pay more attention to them too.
The idea of points to buy things.. Maybe like characters from Daily Click games sort of like the statues you can collect of all the people and enemies in Windwaker.. That's a cool idea. You could even have a "Statue Submittal" section up here like the game submittal, that would have to be approved by an admin and then the "cost" would be determined perhaps by how many votes it got or GOTW award? Members could submit different statues for their and others' games. A mina statuette showing up next to a Lyle in your member profile? Sounds interesting to me. You should make these things work like money though. Buy a falaffel man for 10 points and it should deduct from your personal total. When you run low it might encourage you to go and make a game! Write a review or an article! Use exclaimation marks!

Oh, and another thing is you'd have to re-tally everyone's points vs. what they've actually contributed to TDC, and I'm not sure if that's possible aside from their download listings and such. I'm not sure how long your records go back, but it'd be a huge undertaking I'm sure.
