I received the following email yesterday afternoon:
Peer Judging is now open for the 2010 Animation Entries!
As the individual who submitted your team's animation entry you are now eligible to view the other entries for the Regional, and cast your team’s vote for the one you think deserves to win. As you consider your vote, be sure to refer to the scoring criteria so that you are using the same guide that our volunteer professional judges will use when they judge. Click here to review the criteria.
Each team that has submitted an animation for the Regional has one vote. We encourage you to review all the Regional entries and discuss them with others on your team before you vote. You have plenty of time to do that because you can view them all now in the Design Showcase . You may login, view the entries, and cast your team’s vote anytime before the cut-off of 12:00 Midnight Pacific Standard Time on the Thusday of the week of your event. See the list of judging cut-off dates by event below for your even'ts cut-off.

Voting is easy! Click here to access the voting page for your event and follow the steps below.
Right Click on the name of the entry and select Open in New window, to see the Design Showcase detail page for that design. (For Mac users just open the link in a new browser window)
Review the images and click on the MOV file to view the animation in Quicktime.
Close that window and view the next entry the same way.
After you have viewed all entries, click the "Vote" button next to the entry your team has agreed to vote for.
Note: You may change your vote anytime before the cut-off of the voting for your event. Remember, the cut-off is 12:00 Midnight, Pacific Standard Time on Thursday of the week of your event.
Once voting closes for your event the votes will be tallied and the Regional winner will be announced at the event. Please note that only the person who submitted the entry for your team can access this page and vote. We invite you to look at all the great animations submitted this year in the Design Showcase .
If you have any questions or concerns please contact us directly at firstsupport@dcheetah.com .
Remember, prior to voting check the Award Criteria .
Good Luck Teams!

However when I click on the link after "Voting is Easy ... Click here" - the page just says "Peer voting is not available at this time."
I've sent an email to the support address listed there ... but no reply as of 10am pacific today.
