Week 1 Qualifier Standings
Hey guys, thanks for your patience. There was a 3-way tie for the final 2 spots in the top 8, so we had to sort that out before posting these. The key thing that decided those final 2 spots? The thumbnail. Thumbnails are important, let that be a takeaway from this week.
Below you can find where you finished and what your scores from the judges are. If you are unhappy with your score, please don't feel down - judges are here and ready to offer helpful feedback if you want it. In addition to the competition, this is a place for everyone to learn and improve their blogs. Take this experience and learn from it and I assure you that your blogs will improve
