Yes I'm sure.
Twist Final Results come from the averaged judges' scores out of 100 plus votes.
I've now sent out everyones' judges tally. If I have missed anyone or a box of yours, please pm me.
No, I will not be making the judges' scores public. They will remain private between the entrant, the judges and myself.
Cheers

Thanks Wendy,
I had forgotten the judges and only looked at the public vote. Congratulations to all entrants, some nice boxes.
