Jay and I are delighted to announce the final results of 2010 AP Clash of the Wallers! Thanks to all of the contestants for your incredible patience and understanding about the announcement delay as Jay and I worked through our respective Real Life Issues.

We had to use decimal points for the first time this competition to separate out the winners :) dalarty snatched up 3rd place with her dark, original spin on chainsaw-wielding chicks; Deto narrowly beat out dalarty with his brooding, well-crafted “floral” vectors for a 2nd place finish; and Tsu, one of our round 3 secret wildcard agents, ran away with the highest score EVER given by the judging panel with her gorgeous realization of a fantastical scene, and took the extremely well-deserved 1st place win. Congrats to all the winners! Also, congrats to all of our round 3 finalists. There were many beautiful walls this round, so check them all out and give yourselves huge pats on the back. You guys were amazing! Thanks for sticking through these past three months with us, and for making Clash a success :D

One final round of thanks to our awesome panel of uber-judges, who as usual upheld an insanely high standard of scoring and critiquing for this final round of Clash.
All entries were judged by all 11 of our judges, as well as Jay and myself. Each judge was given a minimum # of comments, but were given the option of commenting more if they wished.

For the last time, please post links to your AP-submitted walls here once you’re done uploading so we can pimp them properly! Thanks <3

The Red Group had several amazingly tight races, with just one point separating the winners from the losers! As the Immunity Challenge + People’s Choice winner, alenas automatically advanced to the final round and also received +4 points on her final score. Congrats to Deto15 for tying with dalarty for the highest-scoring wall this round, and special thanks to afwells for filling in as super last minute wildcard for us!

(Because of rounding, total scores may be a point off from the sum of the technical/creative/meets theme/overall points.)

HUGE thanks to our awesome judges, who have once again kept up the high standard of scoring and critiquing for this round. Be sure to thank them properly!
All entries were judged by all 10 of our judges (Jay included). Each judge was given a minimum # of comments, but were given the option of commenting more if they wished.

Also, be sure to check out the BLUE group’s results! 8)
These groups were just our way of breaking all 19 contestants into manageable posts – no other meaning is associated with these groups :)
