I won? How in the heck did that happen?

Wow! Thanks judges... the cheques are in the mail! :)

What a week! My Cthulego gets Boingboinged, then that’s picked up by the Sci-Fi Channels Sci-Fi-Wire website then I’m contacted by Bizarre magazine who are doing an article on it!

Then to top it off I win the Iron Mecha Competition!

I have to say I didn’t think I stood a chance, some of the entries are so magnificent. Technical masterpeices with worm joints and gears, truly inspired ideas like cranes and transformers and off the wall ideas like centaurs and Clikit mechs, (I’d be saying that even if Megan wasn’t my girlfriend!)wonderful micro-mechs and just darn cool MOCs all round.

Thanks to the judges, thanks to CSF for helping identify what was and was not working halfway through, thanks to Megan for telling me when something looked sucky during the build and thanks to Mark Neuman for arranging all this in the first place!

Let’s do it all again soon!

Cheers, Mark.

  IRON MECHA Results!
 
Greeting my Iron Mecha masters! Welcome to all the spectators! The judges have given me their results and I have tallied them. First, I'd like to say that this has been a blast, and quite the competition. I also have a few thanks I'd like to say. (...)
