Sorry to be offtopic, but this gave me the idea that TASers shouldn't vote on their own TASes. It's an obvious Yes Vote if the TASer is going to vote.
I have just found out that some players have rated their own movies, and I think that some discussion on the matter would be good. In my opinion, such practice isn't appropriate because, having into account the amount of time and effort than they take, I don't think that rating your own TASes objectively is possible.
Edit: I think I understand now: It's my avatar, isn't it? It makes me look angry.
OTOH, whether all this is worth the effort is another question.
I don't rate my own movies. However, as an example, it bugs me to see technical ratings as low as 7 on my my Kid Niki movie, though I know it can only be improved by 2~6 frames. It was one of the movies I optimized to death. Not that it matters... I don't care at all, but technical ratings are often flawed.

Now that the awards voting is open, it raises the question if the authors should be allowed to vote for themselves and on their own movies... (OTOH, I think that in most democracies candidates retain their constitutional right to vote and are hence allowed to vote, and it's actually implicitly expected that they vote for themselves, so perhaps this isn't such a horrible thing.)
