Ahhh, springtime! The birds are singing, the flowers are blooming, and pollen is in the air! But what's this, is that a patch of snow still clinging to the grass? Eww, yucky! No, wait! It's the results to the 2nd Winter Level Design Contest!
Before we get to the final three, I want to take a moment to again congratulate
Daizo Dee Von and Valentine
In third place, scoring 90.33%, you'll only find this at the bottom of icebergs. It’s

In
Snowst House by E-man38!
In first place, scoring 94.55%, but hasn't anyone told them about snow plow services? It’s

The full list of scores can be found here. As always, there's the usual handful of scoring penalties (mostly for missing life farms or anonymity) and disqualifications (broken patch, Kaizo, and getting site banned). The individual judge comments can be viewed below:

Prizes will be selected by the winners on a "first-come, first-serve" basis; first place winner can choose any one of the five prizes, or pass it down to the second place winner, and so on. Physical prizes will require the winner to send me their name and address; this information will be handled securely and only for the purposes of shipping the prize. (I will cover any shipping fees.) Because of this, you must be 18 years or older to receive a physical prize.
Due to the coordination required, I will be reaching out to the winners individually about which prize they want and which are available. Hopefully we can get everything shipped out by the end of the week if not tomorrow.
And that about takes care of everything! I'll be seeing you over at the VLDC judging table!
