Is the voting over?
Thanks to everyone that voted for us in the Aviva contest. They announce the official results on Fri Dec 12th.
Unofficially we held on to 16th spot and will win $5000 and advanced to the final round where judges will decide if we've won $100,000. We'll keep you posted.
Do you know if the big prize winners are eligible for a wildcard prize?[/QUOTE
Yes, the grand prize winners are eligible for wildcard prizes. The big winners have been announced, and I saw at least one grand prize winner that also won a wildcard prize.
I would like to thank everybody that also supported my nephew's school (Clifford Bowey School Foundation) -- for students with Special Needs in Ottawa -- they ended up as one of the grand prize winners which I am very pleased about. Not so pleased that the National ME/FM Action Network only got 5000 dollars though
