    Not here to harp, just saying, I heavily feel that this challenge was poorly judged. Cody was the most resourceful for only spending 4 dollars and Melissa should have had best message for being unbiased and based around a world wide holiday. Agaziy should of got creativity and design for how he implemented the tigray culture into 3 different pieces and allowed for other influence to be involved with the designs. I agree with Melissa being the winner but we all know that just because you got the same answer doesn't mean the math was right. Idk let me know if I'm wrong, just thought they judged 'em a little weird.
