As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

I think everyone brought something unique and all are winners...and I would see it something like this:
  • Best historical innovation: Sporkboy
  • Most original application of “leap” technology: MoT
  • Most regal entry (and most likely to tell “proper” time): Animal Mother
  • Most likely to turn into an evil transformer and kill you in your sleep: PDSF
  • Greatest mystery: Stretch44
  • Swankiest clubbing watch: Split-Time
  • Steampunkiest (and most like a full control room on your wrist): Boourns
  • Hottest digital: Wolfsatz
  • Best conversation piece: TheJohnP
  • Best 1-2 punch: Rabirnie
  • Best non-compliant entry: Spirit of the Watch
  • Best over-engineered entry (and clearly too much free time): Watchpalooza

Thank you for voting me for second place everyone. I will have to update my signature line to include my second place finishes. Always a bridesmaid and never the person on the side of the road with a pair of jumper cables.

Thank you to Watchpalooza for creating the special awards, that was really cool.
