This shows 1st-6th place and the 38% is the rest of the votes.[/QUOTE]

My excitement is ever growing, I can [I][U]feel[/U][/I] my heart leaving this universe at the pace its beating.

[Bynine]

I have a horrible sinking feeling both my concepts are awash in that tidal wave of pale blue, never to see the light of day

[heinous]

i was hoping only 6 people would enter

[QUOTE=Punchy;44175532]sharp shooter is red or blue i feel it[/QUOTE]

Don't raise my hopes up damnit

[VernoGuy]

Congratulations to the winners! I will be sending the 1st place winner a message shortly on how to claim their prizes.
Just a heads up, only one tier of winners can claim their prize at a time, so I'll send each team a message once your time comes.
For prizes that are unique to your tier, I will contact you soon about them.

Sharp Shooter just made it. I didn't think it'd actually get that high.

[nano393]

Awesome contest. Congratulations to all the winners

[phillipchanter]

You know, I don't care about who won or not actually, what I do hope that the overall message of this competition was to tell those in charge of this game that we'd like to see some new weaps in the future.

[Erfly]

Let us all take a moment of silence for those who received no votes.

[otterwolfy]

This was fun, thanks for putting this on and congrats to the winners!

[Justin Case]

They all look fantastic, good work all round!

The Heavy Artillery looks like a valve official weapon, impressive

[heinous]

i was sure shredder would place, it's slightly bittersweet.

ah well, it is what it is. i'll be waiting for that message.

edit: at the risk of losing some free swag, why am i above inside jab? according to the spreadsheet i should be 5th, not 4th? tying with them at most? or am i reading it wrong?

Oh shit good catch, I'll fix that up asap.

[editline]e[/editline]

Fixed, good thing I released the full results.

[Bapaul]

I got svdl's vote. Which is all that should matter.

[VernoGuy]

"We're overjoyed to see competitions like this, which really bring the creativity out in the community, still take place after so many years of the games release. We want you to know that it's happily caught our attention, and we'd like to reward the community for it. That's why, All of the weapons will be [sp] textured onto a badge and given to each creator! We hope to see some amazing work in the future.[/sp]

Thank you very much to everybody! The response I've been getting from the community has been overwhelming. The Heavy Artillery has almost 90k views, 10k positive ratings and 13k downloads on GameBanana now.

As for the prizes I would like to do the following: I'm already loaded with more games than I can play because I just don't have the time. I would like the other winners to pick their games first. When they are done I'm going to make a private raffle on tf2r.com for the other participants that didn't win. So if you participated and would like to join the raffle talk to me on Steam and I'll give you a private link.

[DatGmann]

wow that is super generous of you, i picked the 5 games that caught my eye out of the 9 i had to choose from and thought i was being charitable. now i read that and discover i am, in reality, a selfish jerk :) ah well that at least gives you a few more for your raffle and the other winners

[tempunary]

why are there so many people in this thread

[heinous]

[QUOTE=Gadget | TF2M;44188568] I'm already loaded with more games than I can play because I just don't have the time. [/QUOTE]

but that never stopped anyone from getting more steam games before

mighty nice of you, and a well deserved first place too.

[VernoGuy]

[QUOTE=tempunary;44195854]why are there so many people in this thread[/QUOTE]

Probably because of this [URL="http://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/201lxn/the_winners_of_facepunchs_weapon_design/"]Reddit post[/URL] (thanks whoever posted that btw).

[editline]e[/editline]

Just added mod links for the top six entries for easy access.

[heinous]

are people picking their games? i thought it'd go faster than this

[VernoGuy]

[QUOTE=heinous;44237620]are people picking their games? i thought it'd go faster than this[/QUOTE]

Yup I'm working with fourth place right next. This would be even slower if it wasn't for trade offers.

[Mechtroid]

Yeah, sorry, that's my fault. I just pulled two 12 hour shifts at work. Yay for zero bug deadlines! It should pick up this weekend.

Nah you didn't delay things. I just informed 4th player about the games in your collection that where already claimed, so I didn't have to wait for you. It's really my busyness that delayed things.

I have just received the remaining prizes and will set up the raffle within the next days. You should receive a PM here on facepunch if you were a participant in the contest.

The raffle is set up [url]http://tf2r.com/kqri1hi.html[/url] and I've sent invitations to everybody who contributed. If for some reason you have not received your key please let me know.
