Most Underrated Vapourbot
The most underrated vapourbot, who should be achieving more

It was my choice last year, and itll be my choice this year, since I simply love this machine so much and it keeps on losing so much, its another wonderfull creation of Matty Fowler, its...
BIACS-LE!

Best Vapourbot
Which vapourbot has been the best this year?

Now this could be seen as a factual question. And since theres been so little combat this year, I decided to do some research on it, and two vapourbots stand out IMO, namely Archangel of the Abyss and Clawdius Decimus Murderous, and my vote goes to...
Clawdius Decimus Murderous!

Did I win? :lame:

Best Vapourboteer: Kody for being honest, coming back and saving this place tournament and vapourbot wise, kudos
The Outstanding Contribution Award: Kody€™s contributed tons this year, but on an all time basis, and due to me forgetting who€™s in it, the following deserve a mention: Hector, Roper, Aaron, Steve, Richard, Alex Holt and probably some more that I€™ve forgotten. For this year alone well done to Chris, Kody, Steve, Alex and whoever is still about for still going! I guess this will be the last awards so induct everyone, we all deserve a mention€¦ :wink: Oh, and I€™ll be back€¦

Excuse me? :P
