Thank you to everybody who participated in the Shield Battery Holiday Giveaway last month. Now it’s time to announce the winners! There are six players who have each won $25; three are based on ladder ranking, and three are based on random drawing. Here they are:
I would like to first of all thank DeadInfested, Rancor, fonger, Reaper, JustBorisu, Skelton, Gamma and TT1 for (mostly) beating any team I was in after months of being away from BW. It was fun! I could not have done it without you. Also my biological and my Brood War parents. ^_._^
I also like to thank tec27, 2Pacalypse, Excalibur, Milchman, v1 and anyone else responsible for the great https://shieldbattery.net experience. Also oX (for always organizing and being involved).
Big thank you to phase (aka MyFleetingDream) for putting up the prize pool! <3 <3 <3
I have donated my share of the pie to CPL (which has moved the needle by 1% to reaching the goal). I hope the next big event or season 10 will be played exclusively on ShieldBattery! Let's make it happen!
