This round we are going to have a sort of dual contest. This special contest will run parallel with the normal contest, so everybody still has a chance to participate.
Going off DieTer-Xz's special contest idea, this contest will be a battle of past winners. We will only be voting.
Deadline for voting will end Wed. June 3rd, 2009
