How come my app (Nepali Calendar aka nepcal) is not listed under Beginners category in voting page? Did I missed something?

You had to check the beginners checkbox while creating your account (or afterwards by editing it).
Take a look at the attached screenshot.

Sorry.

Arrghhhhh! So sad :-) . Editing it won't work now! Anyways I wasn't going to win anything after all.

Btw requesting for voting is legal isn't it? I don't see anything against it in rules stated at wiki.

Yes, you can promote your app everywhere you like.
That's the good thing of the choosen voting system: no cheating is possible. ;)

You could try linking your TALK account with the COMMUNITY account. After that, supposedly, you gain karma by posting/being thanked.

I did that a few days ago, but no change (yet?). Anyway...

leon.anavi does have 11 karma points (http://maemo.org/profile/view/leonanavi/), that means that everyone with over 10 karma points should have got an email. :)

Haha, that's cool :) I didn't know that my karma is 11 until now. So we can be sure that the check for karma is working and that my app location2sms will get at least one vote :)

Luckily we are not placing single votes, no, we are making all our own ranking thanks to zehjotkah and his effort to get the voting finally done thru the council system. So, if your location2sms is not at every ranking at the last position you will get more than just your single vote. At least you're at my list not at the last position. :)

Thank for pointing that out! :) I voted this afternoon - the voting is excellently organized.

I decided to put on higher positions in my lists apps that are published in Nokia Ovi Store for Nokia N9, because I believe that in general the main purposes of each app are to be useful and to be used :) After all Nokia Ovi Store is the channel to deliver MeeGo Harmattan apps to the mass market.

Thanks to zehjotkah for persisting with the voting system - it seems a fair and positive way to vote. :)

I've done most of my voting and have used originality as one of my criteria. True the Maemo/Meego ecosystem needs 'Metoo' apps, but it's nice to have something different in there as well.

I didn't penalise an app if it wasn't published on Nokia's website store. For me one of the benefits of Maemo/Meego is you can distribute it yourself.

I'm now keeping my fingers crossed for a Meltemi Coding Competition 2012 :D
