I'm a bit late but looks like my prediction of Aelita winning was spot on. Which I'm happy about since she was one of my picks. What I didn't expect was the 2nd place spot to be so contested or to see Erin up so high. A bit disappointed Crescent's not higher though but at least she's top 10.
As for artwork thing, I'm kinda conflicted since it was suppose to just the top one getting anyway so nothing's technically lost, but at the same time it seems kinda low to set up the rules and then just change them after the fact because you don't like the result. I mean we knew Melia already
