By top ten photographers, it would be keeping the top 10 (with potentially a person winning multiple places) but then going down through the ranking on Montage to find the next top placed photographers, not assessing peoples' entries as sub sets - just for clarity. It would functionally be the same as only allowing an individual one winning spot in the top ten images.
