Just 11 spaces left for Best of the Best contenders for 2010. This is where it starts getting exciting.

To make it into the Best of the Best list, you need to place 1st in the Editor's Choice. That entry becomes a contender. So if you want a shot at the top spot and prize money, make sure you don't miss entering next quarter.

I don't follow the challenge much anymore, so fun to see this list. A great mix of new names and old names!
