    Oh, disputed means someone saw your flag (or some other flag on the post) and decided they didn't agree. That has no effect on the close votes however, which could have proceeded independent of the flagging. In either case, when there's a dispute, nobody's flag weight changes, see meta.stackexchange.com/questions/95275/what-is-a-disputed-flag Commented Aug 31, 2011 at 6:57

    Thus the most likely sequence of events was a 10k user disputed your flag, then a mod saw the flags and decided to close the topic, but since your flag was disputed, there was no change to flag weight. Commented Aug 31, 2011 at 6:58
  • @troyen between you and slugster I now understand that close votes and flags are different. Thanks. Commented Aug 31, 2011 at 7:00
