## <center>There were a few Contestants worthy of recognition! In fact, I really cannot convey just how difficult it continues to be to choose winners every week!! There are always multiple entries pitted against each other for every winners spot including the SSC Outstanding Achievement Awards and it's continually a painful process picking 1 over the other(s).</center>

1) For this epic entry: https://steemit.com/steemitsandwichcontest/@lizelle/steemit-sandwich-contest-week-74-back-to-school-mediterranean-mini-dagwood

2) I love it when ppl reference dagwood when talking sandwiches :) Really excellent stacking technique here too! I also love the selection of veggies particularly the eggplant.  @lizelle packaged the whole thing marvellously in a picture perfect way. Very artisan! Definitely rivals @birdsinparadise’s entry from the other week. I also enjoyed the 2019 reference, interesting take on the theme to throw a general positive vibe out there for food awareness.

#
<center>This is what @intrepidsurfer & @jaybird our week 74 Veto Voters had to say about this entry</center>
#
1) @intrepidsurfer - "I choose @birdsinparadise sandwich as honestly I have a severe distaste for aubergine (egg plant). This is amplified ten fold whilst I am under the weather. This sandwich didn't have this ingredient." 

2) @ jaybird - "Love the Family new years tradition! Cool to find out about the other cultural new years foods as well so thx for that :) Love the homemadeness of this from the sesame buns to the home made lager lol. Sounds delicious btw (i'd love to try this beer!). Cornbeef brisket... Cabbage and other veggies to boot mmmmmm. This piece is well made and 2019 thematic!"

1) "Points for his ultimate stacking technique! Home made pastry was also a high point followed by the fact that this sandwich was loaded with goodies. Tofu, home made pickles & brie!

## <center>SELECTING WINNERS!</center>
#
1) @jaybird: I select the winners based on a variety of parameters.  Just do your thing and have fun with it.  I'm considering many factors such as presentation, ingredients & originality, creativity, community opinion & artistic ability just to name a few.  PLEASE make sure to follow the rules! They are easy to follow and help prevent the tragedy of Null entries!
 
2) There are now only 3 prizes. First Prize = roughly 50% of the prize pool

3) Second Prize dubbed the "Veto Vote" = roughly 30% of the prize pool + the honour of selecting the following weeks second prize winner.  This prize is ideally given to an entry that although it did not win the contest, showed distinction among all the other entries.  This could be a feature such as it was the community favourite, it used the most bizarre ingredients, or, it was just the best looking sandwich etc.  IMPORTANT! The "Veto Vote" holder may not vote on his or her own sandwich to be selected as the second prize.  However, they are still eligible to win First Prize should they enter the contest that week.

4) Third Prize will be roughly 20% of the prize pool

### <center>Week 75's Veto Vote holder is: @birdsinparadise and was selected by @jaybird who was week 74’s Veto Vote holder. Thank you both for your participation!</center>
#
* IMPORTANT! "Veto Vote" holders must always present their final selection to @jaybird in confidence and allow the news to be  revealed in an officially "Who Won Steemit Sandwich Contest" blog post.  Deviation from this method will result in a forfeit of the Veto Vote and thus, the selection will be consider null and a new winner will be chosen by @jaybird.

* Veto Voters can contact @jaybird through or Steemit.chat username: jaybird or discord jaybird#4732 . If for whatever reasons, the Veto Vote winner does not select an entry in the following weeks contest, I will be the default second prize selector for that week.
