I voted for the same old shiz again.

Messy Christmas!

I took a good look back, and I voted.

 

[the G-man]

We gave a vote to innocence
We gave a vote to now
And tried to reach beyond the emptiness
But neither one knew how

So far we have some clear leaders... anyone else gonna vote?

 

[Avro Arrow]

So the poll has closed, and we have a tie... a possibly unsurprising tie, based on the theme of this board!

Congratulations @the G-man and @Santa Kang ! Since we don't typically do runoffs for ties of less than three entries, the two of you can decide whether to run the next contest together, or whether one will cede to the other.

Thank you to everyone who entered and/or voted! I hope you enjoyed this look back over 2023, and I'm wishing you all the best for a happy 2024!

Thanks for the votes everybody and thank you for the running the contest. That being said, if @Santa Kang wants to take the next one, I'll happily concede.
