Thanks to maestro for hosting the mp3. Congratulations to all winners! Skyline and I have had a great timing running these Dronies, and we hope to see you again.

Until next time Dronies fans!

Awesome.

My special congrats to Pheidi and to PALEMOON. You guys deserved it.

And a big thanks to those of you who voted for my DDA! Winning a Dronie is just awesome. I'd thank you individually, but you know who you are. (I don't.)

DAVE LOST???:(:(

Yeah, what the hell? He played a huge role in the forum move.

Still, congrats atob and everyone.

Congratulations to everyone who won! I'm surprised that I got 7% of votes, and not less. Thanks to whoever votes for me, though. :P

And I feel sorry for Yahoozy. I mean, he was the most nominated person (if not, close to it), and... well, yeah. Not many victories.

Thanks again to lord_day and Skyline for making this possible. It was awesome. :D

I won? Awesome, I really thought Heatwave was going to take it out.

Thanks to the guys who voted for me.

cant say im satisfied.

whatever congratulations everyone.

Great work, organisers and voters and nominees and winners.

Heh. I'm flattered. Kudos on taking home the gold, though. I'm more than happy with second, and I'm thankful for all of you that voted for me. =]

Just pretend that I smiley-spammed the hell out of this post.

Congrats to all the nominees and winners, and thanks to everyone who helped to make the Dronies and the community in general as awesome as ever this year. And thanks for voting, of course. ;)

<3

Congratulations, guys. 2008 has been a fine year for N, Metanet, and most importantly, the community.

I wish Unreality had been nominated for community recognition. He singlehandedly made a new type of map possible and created one of the Dronies categories.

Still, congratulations to the winners.

Congratulations to all the winners and nominees alike, and thanks to everyone who voted.

Double thanks to lord_day and skyline. Good luck for next year everyone!

Congratulations to all the (other :D :D :D) winners, as well as the nominees! Thanks to everyone who voted for me, and a huge thanks to lord_day and Skyline for seeing this through. 74 votes! Fantastic.

Yeah, huge ups to lord_day and Skyline. You two win the Tanner's Heart category every time. <3

woot last :D

Surprised that astatine was even up actually, it sucks like... really badly.

grats wolfgang ^^ I thought heatwave had it too

Congrats everybody who won!
Some results were actually surprising, but nonetheless, everyone who won obviously deserved it. :D

My DDA got more votes than I was expecting! :D
Congratulations to all the winners!

yeah, i'm really disappointed, but congrats to all the winners.

I'm Only a little dissapointed.
I'm happy that I got such hight percentages. like 26% and 27%
thanks for the votes peoples... I didn't know my program was that good and I had some tough arts to beat... (I personally thought ferilgatr was better than jaguar)
I am quite happy and congrats to the winners

cool! You may see some more stuff from me if I can think of something useful and interesting.

(fan programs, the smallest category)

b_t deserved to win. i thought that one was a no-brainer. and atob's mappack just rocked... i don't understand.

on the other hand, gratz Pheidi and PALEMOON.

Congratulations to all the winners! As well as thanks to Lord_day and Skyline <3.
