Thank you everyone for your profound patience in waiting for the results for Stamina Showcase 3! Without further ado, here are the results:

The final input for the results came at an awful time for me as I have a term paper for a graduate class due tomorrow, but I have done my best to compile the results and get them back to you. I will try to add things such as Trivia from the first round on the 2nd of December. I triple-checked everything, but please let me know if you encounter something on the document you feel is misrepresentative of the results.
As a reminder, for the final round, the stepartists created files in two separate buckets: 200+ BPM and and 199- BPM. Each of these buckets were then weighted by the top score in the bucket (i.e. if the top score for the upper division was 150, a 150 would be a 100, but if the top score for the lower division was 130, a 130 would be a 100), and then averaged to get a finals score. Like in the original rules, this finals score was then given a weight with the score the entrant got in the qualifiers at an 80/20 split (finals*0.8 + qualifiers*0.2). I like to think this approach led to a more interesting final round.
I want to congratulate ITGAlex, Tuuc, and Zaia for placing the top 3 in the event! Prizes will be sent out in a couple days when I am less busy.
I also want to especially thank our judges, Archi, Rems, StoryTime and Janus5k, as without them this event wouldn't be possible. Judging is more work and more thankless than people expect, so make sure to thank the judges as well.
Speaking of which, I want to single out feedbacker, who during the qualifying round donated !!!!!!1000!!!!!!! dollars to the efforts of the judges. That is insane generosity and I, along with the judges, can't thank him enough. They weren't the only person who donated to the judges' time and effort (thank you, everyone, we really appreciate it), but they deserve special recognition. Donations will be sent over to the judges in a couple of days.
The final pack will be released soon. I still have to compile any revisions and I have to ask finalists things regarding preview music + step artist fields and that'll take a couple of days. In the meantime, all files are fair game to be released.
I also want to talk about the event moving forward, but this will again have to wait until later in the week. In the meantime, enjoy!
