No importance. Except it makes me sad when people who deserve it don't win.

That opens up a whole new can of worms when you start using words like “deserve.”

We all have our own interpretations of what that means and even if the performance you’re thinking “deserves” to win an award and most people agree with your sentiment, there are usually at least a few other performances on a similar level competing so I think it can be a tricky business deciding who most “deserves” an award because I feel their performance would still be out of this world whether they win an award or not.

But I think I get where you’re coming from and an award can be good validation and if it means a lot to the actor/writer/whatever then I will root for them.

While I get your point, I disagree with the interpretation.

This is what deserve means, which I think is fair to say. What you're talking about is more so saying someone should have won instead.
