Unless you chose to not open certain entries, there's no time wasted by just making a thread showing all entries and then showing which ones were eliminated. Unless you don't want to hurt someone's feelings, but I'm pretty sure they'd know regardless when they see their design wasn't among one of the entries.
Edit: I realize the possibility that perhaps the mods want to discuss things about the entries that they don't want the public knowing, but they can easily make one voting thread public and then have a thread in the internal mod section that discusses their votes in depth.
Also, the thought behind it was due to the fact that I did this so quickly a vast majority of the community is probably still unaware that I exist and what my purpose is. Let's say a lot of people are on hiatus for the holidays and we don't get as many votes as we'd hoped for. I would really hate to end up with a lot of "ties". Hopefully once people become aware of events, more people will participate and we won't have to worry about this issue in the future. So unless I end up with a ridiculously low number of entries, this is the way I would like to handle this first contest.
