These are the nominations.Every judge again nominates five entries from this smaller list.All entries getting three nominations or more are the judge's picks.We try to make sure that every judge has at least three of his picks in the final list. Judge with an eclectic taste may find that not many of their nominations made it into this list. As the idea is to not only reflect popular opinion but to also capture some of the more eclectic entries out there, judges may add additional submission to the judge's picks until we feel that every judge is well represented. We'll try to aim for three entries per judge.Based on the categories proposed in the first step, we try to assign a category to each entry on the list.The result is our release candidate 1. Judges gets to check whether their favorites are still on the list.We fix omissions and rename categories until we're happy. This is our release candidate 2.We revise everything until we're happy. We have our list of winners! If we have prizes (we currently don't) each judge gets to nominate their favorite entry for a prize.We publish our list of winners!Somebody puts together a PDF of all the entries and a PDF of all the winners. We'll make these PDFs available for download at no cost.
