This sort of grew out of a desire to see more entries in the agent round because from 230 entries dwindled down to 32 in the agent round...that's BRUTAL. But our surprise also helps out because the match-ups were just SO hard to do. We tried as hard as possible to match entries up against similar-styled opponents but some entries were so unique that doing it was impossible. Basically, we had stellar entries against each other with nothing in common to base a 'victor' off of.
And it's just so painful losing half our beautiful picks.
SO THAT'S WHY WE HAVE THE SECRET SURPRISE!
Are you ready for it? You ready?

This secret surprise is that each host gets to pick one of their losing entries to enter the agent round! That's right--it's a host save!
WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! *Cheers and claps all around*
Each host will pick the entry they believe will get requests and these entries will enter the agent round but not Round 2 of Query Kombat. So they won't get the cool blog badges and everything that are reserved for winners in each category.
We'll pick our entries after Round 1 ends on June 4th! The picked entries will have the chance to submit a revised entry as well as the other Round 1 winners.
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very excited about the agent round now :) Good luck everyone!
Stay tuned for more surprises!
Wonderful surprise! :)
