# Monthly Updates [July]

These update threads only contain major updates.

# Tournament Results

We did another streaming sites tournament to help us better re-order and clean up the section. During each round we also had discussions about the sites. These discussions were taken into account when reordering, but for the most part we relied on the voting results.

In the end, some sites managed to keep their previous spots, while a few have been added or even removed if they were low quality or broken. If you see a round with no votes either way, it means one of the sites was DQ'd.

# Final Results / Before vs. After

We'll be doing more tournaments in the future, let us know which sections you'd like to see most.
