Devlin-San is right! You can totally comment on entries when you judge. In fact I try to comment on all of them since people took time to write for me. Gushing is allowed too, since if someone really wants to win they can read your comments and try to top those entries in a style you like.
No 'Omg you r totally going to win!' but a 'This is so awesome it'll be hard to beat.' is okay. After you announce the winner you can go comment that they DID win. I perfer this even, although not a rule.This sends them a message they won and they can be thinking of a new topic.
