Something is up here.
The pig is in the fog with 15 votes in the hotness. The Rainbow flowers were at 551 in 5th place. Then the pig gets another vote in the hotness and goes to fifth place at 551?
What the heck is going on here?
You can ride with me, or you can find your own path. Don't stab me in the back after I've cleared the way.

People might be taking votes away from either entry. When you have designs that are close, people will add and take away votes on purpose trying to get one to drop out of the fog so they can get an idea of what place another shirt might be in. It's stupid, I know. The hotness doesn't take into account votes that are taken away, I believe...

Actually, no. Top 3 get printed. Woot also picks a few designs from each derby as "honorable mentions". The honorable mentions come from any spot in the derby, not necessarily the top 10. After a few months, all of the honorable mentions get put into their own do-over derby, where once again, the top 3 are printed. (and traditionally, woot follows up the do-over winners with 4 editor's picks)
So, to sum it up:...in order to get printed, this shirts needs to:
1. Get in the top 3 in this derby or
2. Get an honorable mention in this derby and then EITHER get in the top 3 in the do-over derby or get chosen as an editor's pick after the do-over derby or
3. The artist can submit the design somewhere else in 60 days
Hope all of that makes sense. ^^;

I was wondering about the black on asphalt too, but it makes sense if you want it to be subtle. Loop's silhouettes are the same way in her pig design. Good luck this weekend!
