The results of an incredibly difficult Round 3 are in. A few entries polarized the judges, but a few stood out with consistently high rankings. At the top of the heap this round is
Sober
Rounding out the top three are Jim of Seattle in second place and "BucketHat" Bobby Matheson in third.
UPDATE: A discrepancy was noticed between one of the judges' scores as posted on the spreadsheet vs. on the judge's reviews post. The spreadsheet had Governing Dynamics and The Dutch Widows tied straddling the elimination threshold, whereas using the rankings from the review post would send both to the next round and eliminate Third Cat instead. Instead, all three will be moving on to the next round.
Therefore, the following entrants have scored below the elimination cutoff and have been eliminated:
Brother Baker, Sara Parsons, Jocko Homomorphism, Temnere, Jealous Brother, The Brewhouse Sessions, Timothy Patrick Hinkle, Menage a Tune
With 14 eligible entrants instead of the planned 13, a single entrant missing the deadline will not result in a shadow reinstatement. Multiple entrants missing the deadline will result in one fewer shadow reinstatement, to bring the total back to 13. (For example, if 3 official entrants miss the deadline, 2 shadows are eligible for reinstatement.)
Now for individual judges' full reviews and rankings:
Hey - thanks to all of the judges and Micah for all the work you've put into this thing. But I need to mention that I'm pretty sure I (Third Cat) should've been cut instead of Governing Dynamics, I happened to notice I was really 18th not 16th on BotW's rankings (looks like my ranking got switched with Sara's), that difference would have put me at 59 points below GD's 58.
