| Judge's notes: I am pleased to see that Tudo Azul has learned from Tentaculus the art of getting the low hanging fruit early. We'll call the picnic 14 + fractional thumbs. Argonautia ranks ahead of Nanaoctopacious, since Argo's human-pet sent in the picture. Tentaculus has slightly fewer people, but more visible (and duplicate) thumbs, so he has the edge. Toodles' new entry is better than his first, though still not enough to take him into a higher place. Perky's new entry is a winner! And Argo's new entry, a strong second. Sneezy is tied with Darwin at nine thumbs; after much staring at the pictures, I'm giving the edge to Darwin for thumbnal clarity. Judge: Laura |
