It’s time to wrap up the 2016-17 Amazin’ Avenue Offseason Plan Contest. From the original 37 entries that were posted, the community narrowed the field down to ten. Four Amazin’ Avenue editors/authors and one moderator reviewed those ten entries, and each of us picked our top five from it. A first-place ranking was worth five points, and the remaining four spots were worth four, three, two, and one points, respectively.
Let’s get right to it. Here are the finalists:
- There's a million things I haven't done, but just you wait! by OuttaHereOuttaHere
- Bye, Bye Brucey!! by smarkowitz
- The Full Votto by IPA
- How do you make God laugh? by aquarian0
- Going for the Glory by Stephen Milewski
The winners of the contest will be determined by the poll included at the bottom of this post. Vote for your favorite AAOP in the poll, and the top three finishers will win the first, second, and third prizes. Voting ends at 5:00 PM EST on Friday, December 2.
