Congratulations to all the winners, and thank you to everyone that voted! Merry Christmas! :)
...wow.
...you people really have gone mental. :rofl:
Let's see. I got 11 awards, one being Vapourboteer Hall of Fame which *sniff* means a lot to me...can't believe you guys would think that highly of me...makes me a bit ashamed to have abandoned ZED as I did. :( Plus, Intriguous is voted as Best Vapourbot alongside good ol' Back to Rock III, who deserves it just as much, great all-rounder, well done Marti. :)
Couldn't have done it without any of you, seriously. Also, well done to all who have gotten their awards (with the obvious exception), and thanks to Andy for being a great host. My only nitpick is that...I have none. :proud:
Now let's make 2010 even better! :)
Wow, Frank and I don't even have to compete to get awards :o
Is this like the pension or something! Free awards just because we are old :lol:
Might have to actually enter something next year to justify any future awards hahaha :mrgreen:
in everyone's defense Aaron, your award is a hall of fame one, a lifetime achievment award so to speak for the great things you did in the past ;)
congrats everyone! welcome in the hall of fame Kody! its getting crowded here
Wow, thanks everyone...seven awards is a hell of a lot, it puts me ahead of people far superior to myself in terms of their ability to design, compete, and win fights, so many many thanks to everyone and anyone who voted for me ^_^ it's appreciated far more than you realise, especially getting Best Design and Best Team which I had never even considered myself in the running for...you either like my designs and contributions a lot, or you're completely insane. (with one or two of you I know the latter to be the case, but it surely can't happen en masse? :P)
Congratulations to everyone else who won, and a Merry Christmas, Hanukkah, Solstice, Winterval, 25th of December, birthday (for Jamie at least, I know he reads this section :P), New Year and Eid to everyone. Let's hope 2010 doesn't get any worse :)
