Thank you once again to everyone who participated in round one; I had such a blast reading your names and honestly it was so hard to choose the best ones! I hope you love the winners as much as I do
Once again I will be leaving this open for roughly 24 hours so that everyone who wants to play gets a chance. I am posting this at approximately 20:00 UTC and will hopefully have the next round up at 20:00 UTC tomorrow (23rd June) depending on my schedule.
