tl;dr: Skip to the end and "vote" on the buzz if you care about how we distribute prizes.
League results as of now(ish) 2 weeks in are posted in the lunchroom. You can also view the results in Google Docs here: ]https://docs.google.com/a/nerdery.com/s 0RFE#gid=1 (though I'm only updating once per week). Each week "tab" is cumulative.

TL;DR SECTION BEGIN
I'm inclined to say that we should only let people win one prize in order to maximize the number of people who get some sort of "pay out" for participating. If we did it that way we'd say that you'd win the bigger of the two prizes you were eligible for and the smaller prize would go to the next person on the list. If you want to LIMIT the prizes to 1/player please AGREE to this post. If you want players to be able to win more than one prize please DISAGREE with this post. I'll take the votes into consideration along with some ad hoc pollstering.
