Somebody, please post the finalists like last year.

I've got them written down. I know Kireblue was saying he made a rule that cons must post results however otherwise they aren't allowed to use the org to promote their contests. So out of respect to them I'm going to give them atleast until the end of next weekend before I post them. I don't want to get them in trouble because I post them and they decide that they don't need to because they were already posted by someone else. I can dm you though if you're okay with that? Or if you're in the BentoVid discord server I took pictures of the ballot and put them in contest-convos chat thread. So you can see them that way if you're in there and aren't comfortable with me dm'ing you.

I want to deeply apologize for having made mistakes in the past, that have now led to little faith in me posting winners, etc. I'm not the greatest at all of this, but I do strive for excellence, and I obviously have not met that. With that being said, I will do better, and am doing better, and I again, apologize that I have to be called out previous years. We appreciate for allowing us to continue using your site and promoting our con. Thank you.

Thank you for posting all the finalists. I only post videos that I think are the best, so I don't plan to post those two.
