    Hey Marlene - you invited me to this one, but while it looks to be open for 12 more days, it says you've already judged it (gold/silver/bronze awarded)?

    Not sure what's going on with AP at the moment! Every time I try to post something it just pastes it as prose!!!! Maybe it's an AP fault that shows the contest has been judged but is still open?????
