Preliminary Contest Threads - You may have noticed they won't end at the same time tomorrow.

That's because I didn't get them started in a timely manner. Two and three should finish up something like 15-20 minutes after the first thread.

I'll look to begin the Finals Thread soon as I can tomorrow.

Thanks,
George

This is YOUR contest! You run it any way you want. Several folks put up each thread separately and that is their right.

I tend to get all 3 (or however many threads there are) ready together, and then launch them in order. It makes me a little twitchy but I can do it. It helps keep them together.

We're not getting graded here. 😄 We're doing this for fun, and we all appreciate how much work running the contest can be. You're doing a great job. No worries!
