The top-12-posts were shortlisted on Planet Googly where the Googly Friends & Family including myself were allowed to vote for their three favourite posts among those.

^{today's guest judges were: @happycrazycon, @hopehuggs, @okkiedot, @omitaylor, @techblogger & @warrkin
disclaimer: they were not allowed to vote for their own entries!}

The final results of the voting showed 4 winning entries, so I decided to split the 3rd prize amongst two equally deserving winners for today!

and now, drumroll please...

🥁 HERE ARE THE WINNERS: 🥁

🥉 Today's 3rd winners are: 🥉

@juanzcorpion with
"Mango Pinocho"

When you come across a quirk of nature like this one. You know what to do: Put some #GooglyEyes on it!! @juanzcorpion's Mango Pinocho came in with two community votes plus my own. Three final votes for a 3rd prize

and

@omitaylor with
"My Googly Steem Mug + Other Foolishness"

This post also received 2+1 votes in the final. You should definitely check this one out because not only does it contain a steem-mug, there's also an awesome picture of a bagel and a lot of good reasons why putting eyes on stuff is a great idea!!!

🥈 The 2nd winner is: 🥈

@yogattitude with
"Up to Googlyeye fun again"

This fun post with a few googlies including #cucumbergooglyguy up here comes from someone who's been watching this show since as early as day 1. I was happy to see it received 3 community votes, and I would have given it mine, too, but I had to vote "strategically" today ;)

🥇 And Our Grand Winner is: 🥇

@okkiedot with
"Wackelaugenschweine"

Now this amazingly vibrant and well presented entry comes from someone who's Googlies go even further back! I was delighted to see @okkiedot getting 3 community votes today, adding my own, he's our Grand Winner of the day. KUDOS!

aaaaand

_{another drumroll, please}

🥁 this week's Googly-Delegation-Winner is: 🥁

@omitaylor

you'll receive the #GooglyPrize delegation of 146.048 SP for a week.

_{Damn, now that was complicated today! Our 1st winner is a very active voter and has an exceptionally low self-voting quota of only 0.8% (KUDOS!), but with 2k SP the delegation really doesn't make much difference to him. Our 2nd winner, has only voted once(!) in the past 2 weeks, and I'd hate to see the delegation go to waste! Leaves our 3rd winners and here @omitaylor is the easy choice with her active voting behavior and the lower self-voting quota among the two. Congratulations.}
