By the way, Jason is the man! It's awesome to have his commentary on the entries. With Jason, Wes and Sean I'm kind of the odd man out. Those guys are stat block machines. So I just talked about pretty colors and good manners.

Pretty colors and good manners are very important. That and wearing clean underwear in case you're in a car accident.

And the fun of killing PCs. ;)

By the way, when voting opens you'll see we added each competitor's name to the header of their monster's entry (such as "John Smith's Deathpuppet"). That's because there were some instances of multiple competitors selecting the same monster, and we wanted to make sure the voters had an easy way to tell the entries apart, both when reading the submissions and when remembering their favorites when voting--we didn't want someone to accidentally vote for someone else's Deathpuppet entry because there was more than one submission with just the name "Deathpuppet."
