Well shit. I'm sorry guys, I completely forgot about this. I could make an excuse about exam season and all that, but I just straight up forgot. Thanks bann for cleaning up after my goof.

[Quantumsurfer]

Thank you, judges.

I have also been pretty busy recently and a bit scatterbrained besides. I'll tally up the results and try to present the winners tomorrow.

Thanks to all participants for your entries into this year's Blarney Build.

An excellent year all around, with a great deal of good entries and a lot of diversity between our various builders. I was pleased to see a renewed interest in the Drunken Madness category this year, as I had considered removing it. Apologies for the late judging and tallying this year but thanks to Bann for stepping up and thanks to all the judges for remembering the Boast category and/or providing feedback to the builders regarding their scores. That's a trend I'm glad to see continue. Honorable mentions to Natalya's Rainbow Cart for scoring a very close second place, Duerer for submitting almost as many entries as Zebra, and Venge's Another Brick for managing somehow to not score last place. I hope that this year's contest and its many badass entries will inspire more builds in the immediate future and I look forward to next year's buildoff. Without further ado, I announce the winner of this year's contest:

[AnnoyedZebra]

GG everyone!!

[Duerer]

Thx for hosting this contest, Quantum.

[cleanupcrew]

Thanks for hosting, Quantum!

I don't know whether to be glad or sad that the Rainbow Death Cart barely missed out on winning.

[motorhead fan]

Well done Annoyedzebra! Those tanks really were deserving of this!
(I'm still a bit pissed off that another brick in the wall didn't win though)

[ReconMiner]

That was fun.
GG to Duerer, that shark ship was awesome. Hope to see it bite a ship in half

[Venge]

Congrats to everyone, especially to Zebra for submitting so many builds, all but one of which were very good. I'll admit I was rooting for the Rainbow Death Cart, but Zebra definitely put more work into this contest than anyone else. Even though I wasn't able to (seriously) enter this year, I had a lot of fun judging all the awesome builds and look forward to next year's contest.

[Quantumsurfer]

Anytime, guys. Again, thanks to everyone who participated and congratulations to our winners.

[DayBoost_]

Maybe Ill get on of these bad boys one day, good job all.
