Default Library Lovers Design Contest VOTING and RESULTS Thread

And now time to vote!

The Rules: Please send your selections to the VOTE account, here. Take a moment to review the guidelines on how to vote found in this thread. And, of course, please read all the entries before voting. Good luck, everyone!

The Timing
: Voting begins now, and will continue until Noon Saturday, June 30th (US Eastern Standard Time).

The Categories:
  • Best Library & Collection of Items
  • Best Single Item (The single item you most would be interested in bringing into your campaign immediately; for this award, just choose ONE from someone's list to vote for.)
  • Funniest Overall Entry
  • Funniest Single Item (The single item you found most amusing; having this a separate item allows you to include a single amusing element without going for a whole funny concept.)
  • Rookie Award
  • Roland’s Choice Award (Staff Award).

The Entries:

Fayrell's Conservatory by Duke of URL

Anolus Demetrion's Collection by ringsnake (Rookie Entry)

The Wandering Room by The Demented One

The Library of the Mists by Enlong (Rookie Entry)

The Library at Partanacril by purple gelatinous cube o' Doom (Withdrawn at entrant's request)

The Lily on the Water by GryffonDurime (Rookie Entry)

The Grand Library and Archive of Hhiastrio by AngelSword

The Library of Kwalish by Dorizzit (Rookie Entry)

The Caveat: Please make sure your links are properly named, attributed, and go to where you want them to (usually the first post in your entry thread). Also, if you are a rookie entrant, please make sure I designated you properly. Thanks.

I think you left off the Rookie award in the list of categories.

Wow. Amazing. I guess using a giant flower as a library is funnier than I thought.

I'll plead guilty -- I came down sick late in the week and never got around to finishing a critical review of all of the entires in time for the voting deadline.

The only vote that stated specifically which item said, The Roster of Legends.

Ideally, voters would specify both the Entry name and the item name. That doesn't usually happen.

Wow, I won a contest! I wonder which item it was. Unfortunately, I didn't know that voting had begun, and missed out on doing so.

Thank you to whomever voted for me.
