I didn't even bother. I only vote for the really good ones. In the picture category, I only voted for 2.

The reason it dropped is because I stopped sharing it in a couple of other places.

Thank gawd! The Zero round was overwhelming, honestly.

At least the participation rate has leveled off and isn't dropping.

Happy that we'll soon be having interesting contests.

I considered the same, but wasn't confident the correction would be made, so I left it unchecked.

This slate of Costume Design winners is terrific; the hardest category to make a choice (picking up just seven winners proved to be harder than I thought).

And even though it was a pretty clear typo, for a couple of seconds my brain struggled a lot trying to picture 2006’a Babel as the winner of 1995 Best Visual Effects.
