The wait is
over, and the true competition finally begins! Yvess and I have had so much fun discovering new Rihanna, as well as revisiting some favorites.
Fortunately, because of DevonRoars' ban and a low submission rate, 11/12 of you will be moving on. Also,
because critiques were a tad weak and bland overall, only scores and an overall judging summary will be shown. But from here on out, your sumbissions WILL be showcased, as well as ALL JUDGING COMMENTARY. This round was preliminary and a test to see who's really dedicated, and who's struggling where. But from here on out, we're airing all yo dirty laundry.
