It's been a very, very close battle for 2008's Mod of the Year competition, but there can be only one winner - check inside to see the results!

We better see some great new mods out of these guys in the coming months, they have to do something with all the gear they won. Congrats to the winners.

Congrats guys, those were some awesome mods.

jhanlon303 · 7th Jan 2009, 01:19

This really was a tough decision year.
Congrats to all the winners and a special congrats to ALL who were nominated. All were worthy.

Congrats to all the winners!! Though I hadn't followed the top three winners, I was a big fan of the BSG mod. Was hoping it would win mod of the year.

Multiplectic · 7th Jan 2009, 01:45

Didn't Nick win last year too? With Yuugou?

Jojii · 7th Jan 2009, 02:16

wow I didn't vote for anybody in the top 3. guess my tastes are a bit different. Ahh well good job to the winners. enjoy the phat lewt.

craigbru · 7th Jan 2009, 03:48

Congrats to all entries! Win or lose, I'm glad to be a part of such a great community.

[WP@]WOLVERINE · 7th Jan 2009, 04:25

Id like to send out a huge thanks to Bit-tech and all who voted for me. I am very happy with the third place because i honestly didnt think that id get top three finish with so many amazing mods in the running. Coming in third in a modding contest on bit tech is a huge honor because this truly is the home of the best modders in the world. And once again....

THANKS!!!!!

Stuey · 7th Jan 2009, 05:50

Haha, when don't Nick's mods come out first?

I really didn't appreciate having to register for a newsletter in order to vote - that was kind of cheesy. Oh wells.

And congrats to all the winners!

greensabbath · 7th Jan 2009, 06:32

I have to send a huge thanks out to everyone who voted for me in this competition (and who voted and general) and I really am grateful of the support that everyone has given my mods. I also have to thank the bit-tech staff and the bit-tech community for once again making this the best place for modding in the world.

That's cos they are drop dead gorgeous.

A HUGE thanks to Bit Tech for their on going support for the modding community and of course to everyone who supported AppleCoreDuo over the past two years and voted. A victory for 'bedroom modding' i think!

Have a great 2009 all.

Wow, 4th place! Ah well, maybe next year they will offer prizes for the top 5 lol. Thanks for all the votes everyone! :-)

perplekks45 · 7th Jan 2009, 08:28

Yay! A worthy winner if there ever was one! [In my opinion at least

]

I knew it would be tough to hit top 3 rankings this year but I'm a bit sad about how Sinuskurve finished. Well, another year another chance for everyone.

And who knows, maybe once I moved to Austria and settled down for longer than 10 months I might even start my own mod. Because all those mods involved in the MotY [and those hundreds 'just' lurking around on the forums] are inspiring.

Congratulations to all who won! And all who took part in general!

StephenK · 7th Jan 2009, 09:25

Woo! My top 3 won, and in the right order. Congrats to the winners and the other excellent modders who took part. Was a very high standard this year! Cyber Beeers!

Bindibadgi · 7th Jan 2009, 09:49

I need to get the top three's address' this week because I need to arrange getting the kit to you (this will be a task and a half!)

Congrats Nick, and if you plan to come an other time to Italy, you'll have a free dinner with me :-)

Congratulations guys! I knew Nick would win again, Just like I know he will win next year.

I'd like to thank the (two

) people who voted for me.

Being considered one of the top mods on the planet is a huge honor! I never thought my lowly P4 would make it this far. Thanks, Bit Tech!
