Before you scroll down the page to see if you’re the lucky person(s), I need to thank a few people without whom this article series and contest would not have been as successful as it has been.  Back when the conversation started about starship design, I had no idea how far it would evolve, or how you would react to it.  As the process grew and it evolved into a contest, the support I’ve had from Cryptic has been wonderful.

• Thank you to Thomas (aka @Cryptic_TtC ), without his eager and in-depth replies to my questions, this process would never have been possible;
• A HUGE hug to Morrigan (aka @LaughingTrendy) & STO for her shepherding the review process and wrangling the Zen bonus for the prizes;
• I can’t thank the guys at The SHOW enough for their highly vocal support in raising awareness of my blog and the contest;
• /r/sto for allowing my frequent and sometimes bothersome posts in the Reddit forums;
• YOU for following along through this journey.

So without much more, here are the Winners:

Third Place – 900 lobi ship of your choice + 500 Zen goes to: @nak3dsnake

Second Place – Jem’Hadar Strike Ship (you pick the variant) + 1000 Zen: @sentinel64 

First Prize – an Annorax Science Dreadnought + 1500 Zen: @kiriamaya

Winners will be notified in game to arrange a time to receive the ship; @LaughingTrendy will reward the zen in-game.

Thank you everyone!
