Voting is open. Voting closes 2018/2/15 at 12:01 (UTC).
Voting will take place by Alexey Nigin's 2016 voting system.
You can vote for as many options as you wish.
You do not need to vote for all options.
You must assign one (*), two (**) or three (***) stars to your votes, depending on how much you like them.
Here is an example vote:

OCA Discovery of the Year 2017

• #01: The families of adjustable speed spaceships for odd or even denominators.
• #02: The discovery of SMOSMOS as a category with many examples.
• #03: The gargantuan task of classifying all known speeds in isotropic CA.
• #04: Small-glider-bouncing-off-objects adjustable spaceships. Credit for the idea that this was worth exploring.
• #05: Movostill 3 for its great potential in constructions and conduits, as well as its richness in extensible "adsorbed" spaceships.
• #06: The design of rules with excruciatingly slow speeds with different approaches.
• #07: The (initially) seemingly impossible pondlayer-based spaceship in tDryLife.
• #08: AbhpzTa's replicator ships (also here) and his guns.
• #09: Snowflakes, for its remarkable properties without being a clear variant of CGoL.
• #10: The counter-intuitive one-cell universal constructor.
• #11: The elementary ship with the shallowest slope, at (73,1).
• #12: Proofs of several Turing-complete rules.
• #13: All LTL developments, listed here and in other threads. This includes spaceships of weird morphology (here and here).

#01 *** (I think the concept and example of elementary adjustable ships is quite important, although I feel like the odd-period ships are basically just a corollary snipe by yours truly.)

Is the fact that you listed #10 and #11 backwards a typo? You should double-check that the votes you wrote are the ones you wanted to write.

Should be pretty unbiased as I didn't really contribute to any of them.

Voting is now closed. Unless someone has some last minute calls that will make me feel bad about leaving them out.

You already voted earlier in the thread.

I assume you'll announce the results soon, but if you're for some reason unable to, I do have the results calculated in a spreadsheet.

Okay, those results agree with my spreadsheet. A successful competition! Hopefully, it will become an annual competition, like the CL POTY one.
