Alright, the posting period for contest builds is officially over (and technically has been for almost 24 hours, but I forgot to announce it earlier so shush :P). Tune in a week from now to see the contest winners!

Alright, last minute contest update. Over the past week or so there has been an investigation into a particular issue pertaining to the CB contest which, in the interest of transparency, will be explained below.
In short, it was discovered that there were a number of recently made accounts on the site that have done almost nothing on the site other than like a pair of builds, Manik’s Green Warden and the Ada’Soon, the latter of which, as I’m sure most of you reading this know, is one of the entries for the contest. An investigation into these accounts revealed that a number of them were centered on certain geographic hotspots and that some even shared IP addresses (i.e. they were alts of one another), making them even more suspect. Upon being asked Manik explained that the accounts came from members of his gaming team. The admins have already gone through and deleted the extra accounts, but the like total on the discussions that they liked have not updated accordingly. So, for purposes of determining contest winners, the Ada’Soon is considered to have eight less likes than what’s actually listed.
Now then, as you might’ve noticed, there’s nothing in the site rules, the CB Group rules, or the contest rules saying that you can’t have your friends/family/etc. make accounts on the site simply to like your contest builds, nor is there currently any rules against alternate accounts. However, both Curse and I consider such things to be poor sportsmanship and to run contrary to the spirit of the contest. As such, in order to make things perfectly clear, we’re going to put it right into the rules of any future CB contests that any significant acts of poor sportsmanship may, at the discretion of the CB hosts, result in build disqualification.
On a more positive note, unless there are any significant upsets within the next six hours, it looks like we have our contest winners.
Congratulations to our (tentative) contest winners, and thank you to everyone who participated. Be on the lookout for a front-page feature of the contest winners once the dust has officially settled.

Come on, just 34 more likes and I can snatch the win, and I've got 4-5 hours to do it, piece of cake.
Congratulations guys, definitely some deserving winners here.
