I won't be able to get on my computer the next two weeks so I won't be able to participate in the challenges. Can I opt out in advance?

TOP 3 "Extinction At It's Finest" Challenge
Though truly heart breaking to see just the mere tip of the HUGE ice berg of all the loss this world has endured, it is nice to see and reflect upon them once again. To for a moment wonder what it would have been like to have lived while they did. What differences would there have been. The endless possibilities and what if scenarios. It is utterly mind boggling. Either way, you all truly impressed me with the wide assortment of animals you have provided for the group to see this week. And not only that, but the fact out side of those that had to opt out...Everyone completed the challenge....YAY!!! I am so proud of you all. Thank you so very much for all your hard work, and dedication you have given to the D.C.U! Again thank you. And with that aside, I would like to take this moment and reflect upon this week's top 3 designs.
Your Top 3 are....
(If you are chosen, please collect your prizes before the next deadline. Otherwise you will forfeit.)
1st PLACE~ Animallover966's Designs: Extinct Animal Of Choice: Caspian Tiger
@Animallover966...Way to impress the judges with you beautiful Caspian Tiger Griffi. Your color pallet pops vibrantly, and the mutation choices were brilliantly selected. It truly was a unanimous decision for us to choose your design. Your hard work defiantly showed this week, as you clearly stepped up your game. Very well done. Very well done indeed. And for your hard work, please select one of these 2 choices. Once you have made your decision, please PM me and let me know which one. Choice A, or Choice B.
Choice A: 10 diamonds, pet choice from sales/group tabs of my stables, 1 random avi item.
Choice B: 20k in gold, a bye for next week's challenge, and 2 random avi items.
2nd PLACE ~ Sunagakure's Design: Extinct Animal Of Choice: Bubal Hartebeest
@Sunagakure...You have submitted a great number of decisions this week, with each one of them being just as beautiful if not more so than the last. However, it was your last design that shown the brightest in our opinion. Your colors though close in hue, where gracefully shaded just right to make it an extraordinary piece. It is extremely appealing to the eye, and very pretty. Keep up the impressive work that you do. And for your hard work. Please send me a COD of 20k in gold or pick a pet of your choice in the sales and or group choices tab of my stables. Please let me know when you have made your decision via PM.
3rd PLACE ~
Articu's Design: Extinct Animal Of Choice: Cape Verde Giant Skink
@Articu...We judges agree that your choice in steering away from the fancy and beautiful stood out and did not go unnoticed. No in fact, your decision to focus on the skink showed one and all that beauty can also in many shades, colors, and forms. The deep rich greens in contrast to those the lighter shades was a very nice touch creating some neat affects not only in highlights but shadowing as well. It was a very well thought out design over all. Thank you so kindly for sharing the skink with us this week. We hope to see more of your amazing hard work. Keep it up!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Also, remember once a week we hand out a mystery prize to one luck random member of the D.C.U!!!! Will it be you? Only time will tell...

Extinct Plant:Caladenia brachyscapa, also known as Short Spider-Orchid
Date Last seen in 1979, formally declared extinct in 1999.
Colouring There is only one confirmed image of the plant, as seen below. It is a shade of purplish-red, with a singular hairy leaf in the centre. There is not much information about it, as it was first described in 1988, 9 years after it was last seen. It is believed that it was a shade of pinkish-red with a few red spots at the base and the end of the long and thin petals, had an underground tuber, and was about 4-5 cm wide and 3-15 cm tall.
