'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' up for several The Scorecard Review movie awards

In this year's (the 8th annual) The Scorecard Review movie awards, The Twilight Saga: New Moon and its cast are nominated for several (okay, many) movie awards.
New Moon is nominated in the categories for "Best Blockbuster," "Best Music," "Best Action Hero" (for both "Jacob Black" and "Edward Cullen"), "Best Ending," "Best Visual Special Effects," and "Best Screenplay (Adapted)."
Robert Pattinson's ending line in New Moon [*spoiler warning*] - "I have just one condition. If you want me to do it, then marry me Bella" - is nominated for "Quote of the Year."
Kristen Stewart is nominated for "Actress of the Year (Multiple Roles)" for her work in New Moon and Adventureland, and Michael Sheen is nominated for "Actor of the Year (Multiple Roles)" for New Moon and The Damned United.
Voting for this awards group is available here, and you should note that instead of having to choose one film over the other in the traditional voting sense, TSR utilizes a ranking system.
UPDATE: As of this afternoon, New Moon and cast have been removed from the nominations list. Here's an official statement as to why:
I run The Scorecard Review … Unfortunately, I had to remove 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' choices. Too many twihards were giving everything Twilight a 10, and every other film a 1, trying to manipulate the results.

I love movies, movie fans and I have no problem with people loving Twilight, but trying to kill other movies is not the point of these awards. It was a difficult choice, as I love the attention the TSR Movie Awards have already received, but here is an example of what was happening ...

In the BEST MUSIC category, Twilight had a 9.3 score. The next highest was Crazy Heart with a 3.8. That was the next highest! In other words, there were hundreds of twihards who decided the best way for Twilight to win was to give the other nominees a 1.

I apologize to all the Twilight fans who took time, and now don't have the opportunity to vote for the film they love.

Here's a side note … Edward was beating Jacob in BEST ACTION HERO/VILLAIN/SUPERHUMAN. It's pretty funny actually. Edward had the most first place and last place votes. But officially, Team Edward was in the lead.
