Congrats to the top 32 for their hard work and effort. What the rest of of us who did not place in this illustrious group would like to know is where did we place compared to everyone else? How many positive votes did we receive and maybe some feedback from the judges on some of the items that did not make it in? A little constructive critique would be nice so we can learn from our mistakes and improve our craft.
They don't release the item rankings (well, sometimes the Top 100 or so). After 24 hours, there will be a critique thread where you can post your item and people will offer you feedback.

Yeah, there's not much reason to give a total ranking, since that info wasn't designed to be an absolute measure of quality but instead a tool to help judges parse a ton of entries. And for things we were sure were;t going to make it, we often didn't both with comments, or kept them to "Reject."
If you want feedback (which should be more useful than knowing if you got into the top 100 by fans voting on randomized pairs) there'll be a thread for that soon.
I'm a sucker, or a glutton for punishment, or something, since I actually did say more than "Reject" for the large majority of items that didn't get DQed (pre cull even, so that includes culled items). Once that thread goes up, helpful helper judges who will likely not always be me (except as I can) will start posting those for you at least, and other contestants can give some feedback too. As you might expect, mine is going to focus on what you need to improve. I didn't comment on the other 9 that I liked yet, so it's just the comments on the ones I rated Weak Reject or Reject.
Thanks, Mark. I think people will really appreciate seeing that.
I will be working the next couple days to comment each of the Top 32 first, then I am looking forward to critiquing all the items in the thread!
