Maybe we both submitted, but yours had a slightly different URL?
I've noticed that when I click on links from a feed reader, it adds a bunch of params to the end of the URL. I always strip off the extra stuff and submit only the base URL.
Yeah, maybe, but it's completely gone from my submissions list. No biggie. I think it's a great article and HN seems to agree.
allenbrunson: That's definitely it. I didn't know it behaved that way. I'm a little disappointed that it wasn't something more sinister... muhahaha muhahaha!! Oh well. Good info. Thanks!
sounds to me like you hit the dupe detector. if you submit a URL that has already been submitted, news.yc takes you to the previous submission and votes it up on your behalf.
