Yeah, I kinda understand you. There was another nomination, I'm pretty sure, but maybe the nominee dropped it off to pursue another category.
I was againt Ysavvryl in one category where it was only the both of us, and I got only as many votes as the "No Vote" option (5). I don't know exactly what to take of it, considering that 1.- I don't get any reviews at all and 2.- it was Ysavvryl himself who nominated me.
But I'm digressing. You don't lose hope or something. There's people who appreciate your stories and give then spread in votes I'd consider the results at least a faint indication of it. Maybe we'll be seeing each other for Awards 2010.
