Perhaps one of the best lessons
for the last 3 years that we been doing this contest was that, there will be
winners, and non winners.
We have been considerate
during the nomination process and the finals, but when the judges results
starts arriving, and the tedious, and tasking collaboration and collating
starts, we will go back to the criteria and guidelines where we all started.
Walang kaibigan, walang
kamag-anak. Criteria and Guidelines matters.
