Okay folks now it is time for what we have all been waiting for (very late I know I’m sorry) The 2025 Build of the Year Prize Pool!!
Firstly I do want to say again, apologies to the winners that this is coming late, life has been busy and I got a bit caught up in the process of trying to give vendors as much time as possible to respond for inquiries about prize donations. That being said, I do not come to you empty handed! I’d like to take a quick second to thank each and every one of our amazing sponsors, none of this happens without them and having so many kind folks come out to contribute to the prize pool is just amazing.
Rules For Winners/Prize Pool Allocation:
Pretty simple, one prize per winner, I will simply be going down the list of the most voted builds in the voting thread giving each winner a choice of the remaining prize pool at that time in order. I will be individually pinging winners under this chat and will be updating the prize list in this thread with what has or has not been claimed, this process will continue until there are no prizes left in the pool, I will also be secondarily keeping track of this information in a google spreadsheet which I will link under this thread.
