originality isn't everything.

So I guess that means I can't copy Sin's homework and send in the unraveling puzzle from Urban Hunt? That was one original and brilliant puzzle.

Bump. 10 days left to get your puzzles in. The competition so far has been fierce, but the field is definitely open.

What exactly does that mean?

Since this is the first puzzle I will have ever designed, I am wondering what happens to the puzzles in the also ran category? If they have merit, will they be cast aside and forgotten or possibly used by someone, someday?

This means that the winner is by no means decided.

After seeing what's already in, I've decided to name some honorable mentions. Everyone who submits a puzzle will get recognition and some type of feedback. As stated in the rules, none of the puzzles will be posted without permission.
