Ichigo - Dude, its over. I had three friends vote for me - who are all gamers (just a pity that they haven't used the community yet, even though they are forced to read all the bloody articles I send them daily). I told them about the comp and the read what I wrote. Then voted. Those 3 votes were taken away - fairly, I might add. This is a community competition and it is only fair that active users have a say in here. Otherwise, it might poorly reflect the results of what our COMMUNITY reckons are good user generated content.
I had fun writing the piece, and was even more thrilled when it made the Top 10, because I only contributed one piece. I enjoyed this experience so much, that I moved my article to the 'How To" section and expanded on it.
It was a simple community-based competition and should not be made anything more than that. No need to play on anyone's sympathy by using your nephew's situation. If I were you, I would apologize to all of the kak you said about the community's integrity (to James in particular) and continue to be a member of the community. Try your luck next time again.
EDIT: There we go.
