Andreas, the reason you picked for closing is not visible to anyone. Only the consensus reason chosen by the five closers is visible. One exception is when a moderator puts in the final closing vote, where that reason gets used regardless of consensus. In this case, Scott C put in the last vote as "not a real question" and that is the reason displayed.

(Deleted comment. I thought the question had been deleted, but apparently it wasn't.)

I voted to close question 108801 as "not a real question" but accidentally hit the next reason on the list, "blatantly offensive". If there's a way to correct that, please let me know; otherwise, please ignore the reason I clicked.
