A Note on the Contest Draw Process

Just to avoid any confusion, here's how the contest process works.

First, I looked at the entries and selected the ones that answered all three questions correctly. There were 85 people in that group.

Out of the group of 85, 20 were selected by random draw to advance to the semi-finals. Like I mentioned in the post earlier this week, people could have anywhere from 1-5 chances in that drawing, based on how quickly they responded.

So it was entirely possible to answer the contest questions correctly and not make the semi-finals--you still needed to be selected in the random draw.
