I’m too lazy to look it up, but how many entries were there for 2020? I want to know how many folks are tied with me for 80th.
There were 99 entries.
Sometime this evening or tomorrow I will give out the awards officially, but it does seem Loach has won this year!

I’ve never been close either.
Hi guys! Sorry I’ve been away. Distractions. After a year like this, I’m surprised only 1 of mine hit. (…and why did it have to be Neil?) Congrats, Loach!
Drumroll please!!!
