Just giving an update that finalist will be posted within the week! I do apologize about the slight delay, as there was some health issues among the judges (myself included), but this is also we why give ourselves time to judge in the event things like this happen.

If the health issues had anything to do with COVID: yeah, there was likely a strain of that going around MAGFest that weekend (I started feeling the effects of it Monday evening after the con, and tested positive for it the following day).
