On Wild-Cards and Come-Backs!
Initially I'd planned on having the final challenge be a multiple part challenge (with two weeks instead of one) between the top three icon makers. Then I heard about something called the "come-back challenge" that other LIMS communities have run. I wanted to get feedback from the participants...
Would you rather see:
OPTION ONE
As planned, eliminated down to three (assuming no fails-to-submit, that means challenge six is penultimate and no skips will be allowed), and then have a final battle.
OPTION TWO
Use a come-back/wild-card challenge. Artists are eliminated down to TWO the normal way (assuming no fails-to-submit, that means challenge seven is penultimate and no skips will be allowed), and then the winning two will get a week off while the come-back/wild-card challenge is run. Anyone who has submitted an icon to the contest at some point in round one (even if they were eliminated in the first challenge) could compete, and the winner of THIS challenge goes on to face the final two in the big show-down.
OPTION THREE
Use a come-back/wild-card challenge, and make it a REAL WILD CARD. Artists are eliminated down to TWO the normal way (assuming no fails-to-submit, that means challenge seven is penultimate and no skips will be allowed), and then the winning two will get a week off while the come-back/wild-card challenge is run. Anyone who originally signed up for round one (even if they never submitted an icon) could compete, and the winner of THIS challenge goes on to face the final two in the big show-down.
OPTION FOUR
Let's just do it like a pure LIMS competition... the final round should only be the last two people (Assuming no fails-to-submit, that means challenge seven is the penultimate and no skips will be allowed).
I'd like to hear from all members, though I plan to take competition participants and current contestant's thoughts into higher consideration. I don't want anyone to feel cheated of some well earned bragging rights! But I also like the idea of mixing things up.
Please start your comment with your FINAL PREFERENCE, and then add any further thoughts as needed.
