I'm pleased to anounce the results of a Kompetition.
Thank you to all who participated. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you 
Even if I hoped for a bigger participation I am still very happy with the quality of the submitted entries.

As expected the winner was decided in the last 3 500-point problems. Two contenders for the first place gave equally good answers to all except for the 500 points problems.
Most competitors gave very similar quality answers for all 100 points problems.

Let's look into some more interesting problems from the competition.
LL incompatibility:
Most competitoris came up with a regular cross case OLL "R U2 R2 U R2 U R2 U2", but xxyzzy come up with something very creative and claimed 200 for this problem with 7-mover "y2 L' U R U' L U R" while all other major competitors presented 9 move solutions.

CFOP / petrus nemesis:
Both problems had an answer scramble which required 8 moves to solve any cross or Petrus block respectively. The answer was not surprisingly some variation of super-flip.
Two people (Tipster and General) found 8 move solution for a CFOP nemesis with Tipster Trickster showing the shorter solution. WOW baby was the only one to find a 8 move scramble for Petrus Nemesis.
At this point Tipster Trickster had a very slight lead over WOW Baby because of his short 7-move Petrus Nemesis. But the margin between those two was very tiny and Lotto was meant to be decisive problem.

The deciding scrambles were 7 and 14 which had god number 12 and 14 respectively.
Tipster gave them both 18 while WOW Baby guessed 12 for both scrambles.
Tipster gave them both 18 while WOW Baby guessed 12 for both scrambles.
WOW Baby is the winner of a Kompetition. By claiming (4th, 1st, 1st) places in 500 points problems he got just a tiny bit ahead of Tipster who got (1st, 2nd, 2nd).
xxyzzy was in the lead after 200 points problems and came third by claiming 3x 3rd place in 500 point problems.
Congrats! I present the solutions of a winner in case I missed something. If there are no protests I will be shipping winning prize to the WoW baby
