Have you ever wanted to participate in a lims icontest but didn't want the pressure of an elimination? Would you like a chance to participate in a full round of challenges with no chance of being eliminated? If so, welcome to firefly_rumble!

We'll have sign-ups for each round. Each round will consist of 10 challenges. Members vote for their favorite icons and the scores keep adding up. There will be winners after each challenge and an "overall" winner for the entire round.

Round 2 Sign-Ups are now CLOSED, but please feel free to stick around and watch the community to participate in the voting. We'd love to have you!

Round 1 winners can be found here.

Welcome to Round 2!

The first challenge will be up next week. Challenge #1 will be open for two weeks, while subsequent challenges will be open for one week.
