Every year we post a thread where those who wish to can post their top 3 (or top 5, etc, it's a free world) from their ROL. There isn't any risk in doing it after whatever time the final certification lists are done today. We usually recommend you post them in some random order (e.g. alphabetic), but you can post the real order if you want, or use any order you wish.

Buena suerte amigos! Let the posting begin 😀
