I would like to be the first to congratulate;

polygon on his brilliant build & First Place; &

Robomog for his equally good build & excellent Second Place.

I would also like to thank all the other contestants, who also entered wonderful builds, but the nature of the beast is that there is always a winner for whom I would like to thank the voting public & their sterling effort in bringing such a deserving build to the fore.


From your humble moderator: Thank you! :icon_alabanza:

Forget about his bow and arrows- why wait until that sparrow has done his deed when I can just bury him right now 'cause I'm sick and tired of hearing why he wants to have his way with the cock robin!?
