Hi everyone,  
Thanks for taking the time to enter this contest. The “submitting entries” portion of this contest is over, and the next steps are the judging and voting.

This always works in two parts. The first part is where a select number of judges will look over the entries and pick their 10 favorites. The judges are: **darkmotion** , **TheCanadian** , **Iamthejuggler** , **Templarian** , **Jeff Wheeler** , **Adam** , and **ajcates**.

From the judges’ picks, the common/frequent selections will be separated out and put into a public poll that everyone gets to vote on.

The relevant dates are as follows. The judges have until next _**Friday (April 3rd)**_ to get their picks to me, and over the weekend, I will go through their picks and create the public poll. The public poll will probably run for about 3 weeks or so, but I can give more details on that shortly.

Thanks,  
Kirupa 🙂
