^{Need more details and numbers about the Prize-Pool? There's a whole spreadheet for you!}

Like once every week, I called friends and family together on the Planet Googly discord to let them select their favourite #GooglyEyes posts of the week and chose the newest winners. It was an incredibly close race today and we have no third but two winners tied for a second place instead today.

_{qualifying posts were submitted by:
@lighteye, @bucipuci, @elfenlicht, @brittandjosie,}
^{@marblely, @kaerpediem and @hazel420}
_{today's guest judges were:
@bucipuci, @dexterdev, @drakos, @hopehuggs}
^{@niko3d, @steemseph and @zneeke
disclaimer: guest judges were not allowed to vote for their own entries!}

drumroll please...

🥁 HERE ARE THE WINNERS: 🥁

🥈 Today's 2nd winner is: 🥈

@hazel420 with
"Can't stop won't stop talking Ben"

Some original #eyebombing on our 3rd rank today, @hazel420 met this mouthbreather called Ben while exploring her neighbourhood. Excellent, that's exactly what I like to see here! Four guest judges agreed and gave their vote for Hazel!

🥈 The other 2nd winner is: 🥈

@kaerpediem with
"Starring Mr. GooglyEyes"

The title doesn't quite do this one justice. @kaerpediem met a few new faces while exploring Eye-Kea and tells us a googly love story in perfect rhymes. Again, four guest judges picked this poem and that's why we have two 2nd winners today ;)

🥇 And Our Grand Winner is: 🥇

@lighteye with
"Alien"

And @lighteye shows us this alien creature he brought back from an exploration on planet Lidl. If you've been paying attention around here you'll have seen one of these guys actually getting murdered on this show not too long ago. I'm not sure why so many of these show up here lately, maybe it's an invasion?! But the bright orange color against space black certainly gets the judges attention! With five votes @lighteye wins the grand price in a very close race of the googly master explorers this week. Congrats!

aaaaand

_{another drumroll, please}

🥁 this week's Googly-Delegation-Winners are: 🥁

@lighteye, @kaerpediem, and @hazel420

you'll receive a delegationf of 101.199, 75.899 and 75.899 SP for 9 days.
