Judging is taking a little longer then expected, please hold in there while we tally all the votes. We are once again judging on what we think will bring EscapeMI.com the most hits, however creativity, size, matching banners, and content will all play a roll in the decision.

 

The results will be posted soon!

<h2>Banner Contest Winner(s)</h2>

 

Well, after a week of talking it over, three re-votes, 6 other judges, our sponsors opinion, and countless banner entries: the EscapeMI.com crew has narrowed down our banner contest winner. . . sort of.

 

On our seven judge panel, we had three judges vote for Legsp, three judges vote for Adam Tierney, and one judge abstain. The abstaining vote happened to be me. Both entries were superb (C5 and E1.) We decided to award both entires the 1st place prize, however after talking to our sponsor, they wouldn't allow us two games in one month. Instead of taking a game from another month's contest, we decided to go into sudden death. For more information on how it works, read below.

 

Each contestant will get until Wednesday to submit one banner (468x60) that is NO larger then 12KB. This banner will be the deciding banner and will be voted by the EscapeMI.com staff. The winner will recieve a Mnkey Island game of their choice, and the 2nd place entry will win a lesser prize yet to be determined. If someone doesn't submit a banner by Wednesday, the other person wins by default. If neither contestant submits a banner, Urioses wins by default (he submitted the most banners.)

 

May the best contestant win. Submit banners to ZeroXcape!

<h1>Congrats Adam Tierney!</h1>

<font size=3 color=red>2nd Place: Legsp</font>

 

<h2>Judges thoughts</h2>

For anyone interested, after the judges couldn't decide who won, we went into a sudden death. Both banners

were resubmitted and then voted on. Adam's banner won because his met the under 12K requirement. Aside from that,

his content in the will banner will probably get more clicks. Legsp finished a very close second. Both winners and

all the contestants are thanked for taking their time for the contest. Don't worry, there will be plenty more of graphical

contests coming around!

 

 

Both Adam and Legsp should send an e-mail containing the following information: Nick Name, Real Name, Age, Shipping Address, and Comments.

 

Thanks again everyone for a wonderful contest!
