		<description>Hopefully, we can get a wider array of entries (so that we don&#039;t have several entries that are almost the same) in the next contest. Several of the entries this time were process monitors - pie charts, bar graph, etc.</description>

		<description>You did a great job, Gus. Thanks again. I really liked the amount of detail you put into the judging process, but I think you&#039;re right that it&#039;s awkward to rank it down to the last person.

I liked the way rentzsch came up with &quot;Best Whatever&quot; type assessments, which you sort of did in the comments section of your points rundown.

Perhaps Mark will choose to compromise by adopting a less granular ranking system (like A, B, C school grades) for the sections. That way people would still get some feedback on how they met the various criteria, but wouldn&#039;t be as inclined to grade-grub for a single point here and there :)</description>
