    Should we have someone else pick a winner?

    I think 4 days past due is enough.

    I was thinking the same thing... it's actually been 5 days. Way too long.

    I have just PM'd this to jmp ...

    Hi jmp,

    It would appear you may be having difficulty in getting the judging done and I think there are signs of people wanting to move on in order to have fun on the next competition. I appreciate you are possibly being let down by your friend.

    If it helps I will volunteer to drop out of this competition and do the judging for you simply so we can move things along. Please let me and the thread know ASAP.

    I’ve posted in the thread that if at least 3 people nominate me to judge this and we have not heard from you in another 24 hours then I will proceed to judge it.

    Sorry if this sounds impatient, it’s not meant to be, and truly I’m just trying to be helpful.

    Regards
    Alan.

    If at least three people (preferably more) nominate me to perform the judging (edit - and no one objects) and we have not heard from jmp2204 in the next 24 hours (i.e. 7am UK time tomorrow) then I will drop out of this round and perform the judging.

    Thanks jmp2204 for relinquishing the judging and please pass on our understanding to your friend… work always comes first and in his case particularly so!!

    I now withdraw my pics from this round in order to do the judging.

    Please bear with me and allow an hour or two – I have already viewed them as things progressed but not with judges hat on. I’ll be as quick as I can to start a “result” thread and also post back here when done.

    Alan.

    Jmp2204 - thanks for starting a mini-challenge that brought some amazing photos of animals to this thread. Sorry it didn't work out for your friend to finish judging, but as Alan said, we understand.

    Alan, many thanks for coming up with a good way to keep things moving! Much appreciated.
