The /r/Fantasy Cover Olympics: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone FINALS

###What are the Cover Olympics?

This has come about as a result of this post. Basically, the idea is that for certain popular series with multiple covers, we will vote for the best cover art. Each country will put forward a single cover, decided based on qualifying rounds. The books will effectively function as olympic "sports", and points will be given to the countries of the 1st (3pts), 2nd (2pts) and 3rd (1pt) placed covers for each book.

The country with the most points after 5/10 series (depending on how much interest there is in this) will be crowned the winner!


###What is this Thread?

In our last thread we whittled it down to one cover per country (sort of). This thread decides the winner! Jump on over to the Google Form that is serving as our Olympic Stadium, and vote for any covers that you think deserve to win. You can vote for as many covers as you like. The winning cover will be officially crowned as the prettiest Harry Potter cover, according to r/fantasy!

Please vote for your favourite covers here!

You can also view all of the Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stones covers (including those from qualifying) in an imgur album here (and also in grid format).


What's Next?

In a few days I'll be announcing the gold, silver, and bronze medallists of this competition. I'm not sure whether or not to do another one of these threads, so this might be the last. If there's any book series that you guys really want to vote on, then leave a reply to me in the comments mentioning which.

To finish off the Olympics, I'll be posting a quick recap of results we've had over the last few weeks, and maybe a final poll to vote for the best overall cover (potentially worth a few extra points to the winning nation).


Notes

If the images in these polls are too small for you to see, remember that you can Right-click -> Open Image in New Tab to see it in it's original resolution, or use a chrome/firefox extension such as Imagus to see the original image simply by hovering over the thumbnail. Unfortunately I can't seem to find a way for Google Forms to display these images any larger. Alternatively, you can always use the imgur album linked above.
