Several of the entries this time were process monitors - pie charts, bar graph, etc. Hopefully, we can get a wider array of entries (so that we don’t have several entries that are almost the same) in the next contest.

Thanks again. I really liked the amount of detail you put into the judging process, but I think you're right that it's awkward to rank it down to the last person. I liked the way rentzsch came up with "Best Whatever" 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't be as inclined to grade-grub for a single point here and there :) You did a great job, Gus.
