I'm going to display all the puzzle images in-post below, which will make dial-up and low-bandwidth users groan. My rationale is that if you are voting in this poll, you will need to load in all the puzzles anyhow so that you can rate them. I feel that having all the puzzles shown like this will speed up voting for most people.
Rules for Voting
1. Try to solve all of the puzzles. If you can't solve a puzzle, figure out how the puzzle was meant to be solved so you have some basis to judge it. If the author hasn't left an explanation, you can post here and ask him to provide one. Or if you feel embarrassed about asking, I suppose you could PM or email the author. If you can't get an explanation after trying, then don't worry about it.
2. After you've played all the puzzles, rate them all in one vote. Partial votes are unfair to authors of puzzles you haven't played. So vote all or nothing!
3. Give each puzzle a rating from 1 to 10, with 10 being the best possible rating. You should consider the following factors: how much you enjoyed the puzzle, how original it was, and to what extent the puzzle required a single unambiguous answer. Some factors which should
not be taken into account: artistic talent, how well you like the author, how many entries the author posted.
4. For fairness, authors are recommended to vote their own entries as 10. Author's should rate other entries according to their honest evaluation.
Okay, I'm going to start posting entries below. I'll add one post at the end to say when I'm done with that. Also, it's a busy workday for me, and I might get interrupted halfway through. So don't worry if the posts stop coming; I'll come back to it.
