Actually, something has already been done about it. The seasonal exhibition.

Instead of the good old common way of selecting the characters with the highest nomination, each series get to have at least 1 character getting in for a chance to let everybody take a look at them. Still doesn't stop the mainstream anime characters smashing them badly. It's all down to the original problem, nobody knows them, nobody votes for them.

2012 Exhibiton
Yuuki Asuna > Doumoto Kuzuha > He Liao Diao (5517-595-125)
Shiina Mashiro > Nazuna > Nel (4583-623-444)
Takanashi Rikka > Himiko > Ecarlate Juptris St. Piria (5185-947-310)

These 6 characters who got outblowed after getting in the seasonal exhibition made no where near the nomination this year. If some "playing fair" had been done this year in Nomination Period and they got in, they just gonna repeat the history of what happened last year, which is going to bring even more pain to see then not getting into Nomination Period at all.

There is something about a weak character getting into Nomination that might help looking at the situation. In one of the Chinese forum, there is an ability that by putting @ in front of a user-name, it is possible to summon the user to a specific post as the user will receive a reminder and will be leaded to that post. During Nomination Period, the people in the Chinese forum who supports Mouri Ran began to summon the forum users to nominate her for ISML.
The end? You see how well Ran did in the nomination. They found Ran moe even though Detective Conon is not exactly an anime that does well in Moe contest, they knew by doing nothing Ran wouldn't go anywhere near Nomination, and without any "playing fair" at that time, the moe (maybe) character from non-mainstream anime could not make into Nomination. So they did something about it on them own.
But what happened after that? Maybe other people got to see and judge about this character, but it was still not enough to stop the characters from (possibly) main-stream anime smashing her.
This year it was just Ran (maybe someone else, I didn't find anything else on the Chinese forum though), but if "playing fair" came in and some other characters from the non-mainstream anime coming who might actually fit the term "moe", they would go through the same journey as Ran. And instead some other characters with strength to getting into Regular Season (e.g Yuuki Mikan did not so good in Nom, but has what it takes for Regular Season), from the anime more people have watched ended missing out on Nomination because of this, then it would not be fair to them.

In the end, the original problem remains there, nobody watches the anime, nobody votes for the character. The admins has been dealing with this since the very beginning. Starting from the first year of ISML, exhibition matches for characters not appearing in Regular Season have existed and continue to exist even now. Season Tournament was put up so at least one characters from each series could get into the match for everybody to see and judge. The number of nomination votes for characters from the same series is limited so the effect of mainstream anime could be decrease during Nomination Period.
