I'm not a conversion snob at all, but I do shy away from re-encoding MP3s just as a general IMHO/YMMV aside.
For awareness, I have not listened to the voting mixes yet so I can't say if mine changed or not.
EDIT: OK, I compared mine to what I uploaded, I can't get them aligned enough to try to null but regardless, swapping between the two, I'm not hearing enough differences for it to change how people would vote for it IMHO.

Fair enough. It might just be my overly sensitive ears, and ridiculously anal-retentive standards I set for myself that made me offer this comment. Overall, though, I was happy to hear such truly different mixes coming from the same audio files. Really cool - looking forward to hearing your feedback once you've had a chance to listen.
