Great Job you guys.
As to those that didn't make it, keep your head up it was a tough round with allot of good entries.
Congrats to the top 16.
GM, I agree it was a good round. In fact, as I said in a different thread, I think this has been the best batch of round 2 submissions I can remember. Round 2 is notoriously hard--its the first short turn around submission and there are 32 contestants. Even the archetypes that were lower on my personal ranking were still really good submissions, just not quite as good as those above them. So no one has any reason to hang their head.
Great work everyone!
Echo these sentiments. I hope I wasn't overly harsh on any of the top 32 because they were ALL very creative and had at least a spark of cool.
Well done guys.
I think the cream rose to the top!
Congrats guys. You earned it.
Good work everyone, but it's not time to relax: the competition only gets more intense from here!
I know you are likely too busy to read this, but
Congratulations Top 16!
I'll throw in my congratulations here too. There was some great work in that round and those who didn't make can feel unlucky they came across such a high standard. I think most of you would have had a decent shot any other year. Good job all round.
It really hots up now. The monster round is a real test of creativity, hard math and technical polish. Template Fu could hit this round hard.
Can't wait to see what you all come up with. Good luck!
