    Indeed - great to see people chipping in on this one. And I have to say that the range of entries is great. I think this is the largest range of scales we've ever had!

    To answer the voting question, it's 1 vote per 5 entries rounded down. So 9 entries is 1 vote, 10 entries means 2. So we're currently at 2 votes this month. 15 entries will make it 3 votes. That seems to give the right number of votes to give a good spread, but also a clear winner.

    but then again - I see Imm breaking the rules (again) in the other challenge ... and I'm with him, with so many entries an extra vote to show ones appreciation would be nice so I "vote" for rounding up

    I'm with tilt & Imm -- rounding up is a great idea!

    If we're voting for two (or more) when the time comes, do the two (or more) highest vote-getters win?

    no - there is still only one winner - but you get a bigger spread of votes and people get some recognition

    I think you guys definitely picked a winner for a challenge idea. Maybe we could do this same challenge again sometime?

    And it's going to be hellaciously difficult to vote...

    I see a lot of creative entries for this. Perhaps I should have thought outside the box a bit more when starting this, instead of just using the blobs as islands. I'm fairly new here, so I'm not sure how people vote. I guess we'll soon see !

    Well, "out of the box" thinking can go a long ways, but it also comes down to how well you do at what you've chosen to do. Nothing wrong with islands, just see how great you can make them look

    Yeah, "Outside the Box" was my first thought (I considered nebulae and lakes). But I'd really been wanting to try a portolan, and so I ended up with islands. It works well so I'm happy with it.
