I thought all these dismembered creations were gruesome but I gave many of them high scores, yours included - the editing is fantastic here, Mark. I did wonder about the head but just figured he'd lost it earlier. Congratulations on the ribbon.

Oh my, this is absolutely fabulous!! Just too nice for words. The position of the flash to get the elongated shadows is perfect. Really great textures and detail. I could go on, but I'll stop. A 9 from me.

EDIT: This is tied for 1st place for me.

This looks hot! I can see this catching everywhere! (lets see..what other fire jokes can i put in here....)
The audience looks like it's more of a simmering than a blazing crowd.
That net is retardant! (hopefully)
I'd make a "that team / he" is on fire joke but for all i know it could be a last-ditch, bottom of the (fire) barrel effort to get any points at all.

The losing team is going down (down, down) in a burning ring of fire.

ok...i think that about does it for the bad jokes.
Overall i like this image, i'd say top 10 finish is a definite possibility. Good luck (and i hope you at least smiled at one of those jokes)! :)
