There's so many options it's so hard to decide what to vote on! I loved Bomb King and Good vs. Evil, but I think I will go with Autumn Cait Sith.

Good vs Evil is 2 pumpkins isn't it? Only one should be allowed as an entry.

Or is it 2 sides of the same pumpkin?

The rules said you could enter more than one pumpkin.

Finally voted, but wow that was difficult--there were so many good ones to choose from! Good job to everyone who entered :)

Some of them actually made me lol. I particularly found the bomb king, lycopumpkin, level down (clusters D:), and leech pumpkins amusing. Great stuff!!

Yes but I would assume they would be counted as two separate entries.

The Mount Zaylom looks amazing... so many details in it.. I wish I could do that :o

Very nice pumpkins!

Voted Mount Z one. Good job whomever did it. I actually like Mount Z as one of the newer areas besides Halvung.

Look at the bright side... If you are competing against an entry with two pumpkins in it, you are better off than if those pumpkins were separate entries, then you would be competing against 2 entries instead of one! Makes it less likely that the same person will take 2 of the finalist positions... giving other people the chance to win something.

I defiantly feel a little better because there are a couple of 2 or more pumpkin entries that each of those pumpkins individually could win!

I've narrowed it down to 7.. not sure if I can go under 7..

Hmm, I voted for my own of course. But after seeing what some of the others look like, I've reevaluated my earlier claims of winning. Some of the people out there must have really wanted to win, a few those pumpkins had to have taken days to carve.

Holy cow.

This stuff's amazin'.
