Hey guys, sorry for the irrelevance to this conversation.
I'll be 14 in June 2024, so do you think I'll be allowed to join the junior category when it comes around in 2024? (I'm pretty sure I will but I just want to double check)
Also, can I submit something for the junior category next year but also for the other categories?

the answer is yes for both questions

I am not doing this competition ever again. They are just making us wait forever without any kind of announcements. Extremely annoying

have you guys heard anything yet from them regarding the certificates or whatever?

I think we all should collectively start mailing or tagging them on socials to get their attention. Like damn okay its been a month since they released the results, does it take much effort to release the remaining certificates and high distinctions and all
