You have until the end of this month to “vote” for the ones you like, only 375 entries to look at, ugh.

I got to page 5 and tapped out

 

only ones that caught my eye was the library books and the polar bear (in terms of uniqueness done well)

 

[maybe we can take shifts...each of us take 5 pages and highlight anything worth noting...]

Same, I started seeing the same sets twice so gave up. There are a few unique ideas like the Fan set but none that would be must buys, and how many Medieval sets can we have. 
 

Here are 2 that are nice but I probably only saw a third of the entries:

I actually think there are a lot of great designs.   I voted like/love on probably 20-25 of them.   Unfortunately builders took advantage of the 4000 piece limit, so whatever makes it though, its gonna be ridiculously expensive to get all that qualify/win.   Both JKBrickworks and BrentWaller (previous Ideas winners) submitted sets.  If others did, I didn't catch them.

The Cathedral is one of my favorites like others said. I also like the Parisian-Street because I think it would be a good one to resell lol...

I didn’t even see that one and thought I viewed them all.

right after the start I could have given likes from the overview but now only from detail which is pretty uncomfortable

Yes that was the issue I was having, they changed it and you now have to go to the details page and when I would go back to the overview different sets would be there. 
 

Just checked on the Lego Store Modular and it is up to $550.

I wrote to BL support and they replied the feature had problem with volume of traffic and they plan to bring it back. So I wait with further voting until then bcs now it is pretty unusable for me.

Started to get my sets. Super disappointed that yet again my bricklink shipments come in looking like someone played soccer with them at UPS. I wish I could at least get a replacement for…

This one is the 1950s Diner. Box bent in 2 directions and seals all popped. 
 

I tend to wonder if it’s really the carrier or if it’s the warehouse loading/ unloading to the carrier. I send out tons of stuff and never have problems like I do from Lego. Probably has a lot to do with underpacked flimsy boxes too.

I have never had any issues arriving to Virginia from IL. I would guess that it is your local UPS distro site that is sitting on your boxes during their coffee breaks.
