Of course they are! But I meant, what BrickArms do they win? Like BrickArms that would make the entry better? Or random ones?

Aww, man! I didn't win! I couldn't help but notice all but one of the winning entries featured BAPs. The most unexpected entry that one that I think is Mafia V.s. Yakuza. It isn't that anachronistic, it's just two different mobs fighting, which is pretty normal. Anyways, I'm surprised Special Ops didn't win for his WWII V.S. Green Berets vig. I thought that that was better than Hound Knight's (no offense). From the moment I first saw Dragonator's entry I knew that it would win, and same with the Taking of 3:10 to Pellham.

Oof. That was some heavy stuff. Do I not deserve to win if I came in second in the past? I worked really hard on this one, and I'm glad it paid off. I'm sorry that you didn't win, but I'm a bit put down by that.

Congratulations to all the winners... these are amazing examples of some of the fine Vig's in the contest. I must confess to being slightly overwhelmed by the sheer number of entries but if these are an indication of the level of skill involved I will take the time to go through all the entries.

Well done all!

Anyway, nice job on the vigs, they are awesome!

Sorry, I was just mad I didn't win when I posted that. I really, really, REALLY wanted those prototypes and exclusive BrickArms. I'm never going to be able to go to a convention, so I'll never get a chance to get protos except for contests. I'm sorry, it's just it is a bit unfair to win twice in a row. You're an awesome builder and that's why you won, but it's no fun for others when the same people win over and over again. It kinda discourages you, no? Anyways, I'm sorry, and i just deleted the comment. Sorry again!

I understand. And I know how you feel: on the CABG, the same three people seem to win every time!
But that doesn't mean I'll stop entering contests!

Okay, Will. Sure thing. It won't happen again! It's just he won twice in a row, I'd be fine if he won one contest, then didn't win, then won! It's just twice in a row is slightly unfair. I hope you understand. I'm not aking for the results o change , I'm just making a comment. I didn't mean for anyone to get offended, or for it to be interpreted as rude. I'm terribly, terribly, sorry.

Well I would like to congragulate all who won. Smifery, I knew you would win considering every entry you sent in had an amazing amount of action and brilliance intigrated in it.
Everyone deserved it and I knew I would'nt win, but at least I had a chance to win. Congrats to all.

It was fun to me since my entry was still fun to make. I wonder if there will be another BBVC next year?
