Well, if nothing else, this is the best named challenge ever.
I won't be able to do the entry compilation until later tonight or tomorrow morning ... if you have an entry that's nearly complete and just need a few more hours, please send it to me before 10pm Eastern Time and I will include it.
thanks,
-Bryk
Did we ever come to a conclusion as to what to do in this case (only two entries), with regards to voting?
As the author of one of the entries, I find myself not wanting to vote for myself, however, my ability to choose amongst the "best of the others" is severely, well, limited in this case.
Do I just vote for myself, or not at all?
In the case of 2 entries, it's best, imo, for the entrants to simply not vote, since they should cancel each other out, assuming they are not going to vote for their own entry.
