Automation's EOTY Awards!

Hey phale, maybe start a king of the hill thread where you invite contenders to build cars against your stat monsters.

Would be good practice :wink:

not gonna lie, I have my eyes on that turbo crown…

I am so in for that kind of thing

Whoa, what a great way to end the year!

I wanted to thank @titleguy1 for hosting this and congratulate him on our tie for best car designer. Congrats to @DeusExMackia, @phale, @Leonardo9613, @Starfish94 on some hard fought but greatly deserved wins!

Thanks to @Razyx for all the new bodies this year! Enjoy your award!

Congrats to @squidhead it was great working with you on that MRZ-3 tuning and I’ve enjoyed your thread this year.

To @Awildgermanappears glad to see the M-X get the love it deserves. Certainly the one of the most iconic SUV of this year. But hopefully, we can give you more company in 2017!

Hope to see more great designs from @asdren in the new year!

Many Thanks for the awards! It really means a lot, I’m very happy to see Maesima managed to make a big enough impact upon entry to win best common car company against such impressive competition. So thank you for your votes! I know we will have to work extra hard to keep on top of things if we want to retain this award in 2017!

A special thanks to @strop for his win on the Car Shopping Round which is an excellent challenge and the first thread that actually made me want to start posting on here. Plus taught me a huge amount about the game in both designing and engineering my cars! But that’s not to take away from the many other great challenges we have on the forums. They really make things fun!

I know there is plenty of work still ahead for the new year and many great cars, engines, challenges that lay ahead for us all together here. Plus an awesome UE4 update, so we must push forward to finalise all the vehicles created in the current engine.

I wish you all Happy Holidays and New Year!

Yeah, I was surprised by that nomination as well… :confused:

But maybe the nomination makes some kind of sense in the light of winning this:

I hope to edge out my new nemesis, @Microwave, to take the crown in my own right next year! :persevere:

Plus, yes, I’ve decided to take winning “Most WTF” as a positive thing… :triumph: :grin:

I had a car in that category, too. Just kinda wasn’t crazy enough.

And yes, I’m pleased to see the Storm AluStar III V8 took a win in something. Especially because I was up against an engine I surely thought would have beaten it. I mean, the AluStar III is the typical floor-plan of an American V8: Moderate to Large displacement, capable of handling running Natural or Boosted, built to make a lot of power, but can also just quietly make modest power amounts when needed. So, yeah, I’m surprised it won.

But I’d like to thank everyone who voted for the AluStar III. When I saw my opponent, I thought I was done for.

Shoutout to @Sillyworld and @Squidhead for giving a few of my cars some rare exposure.

I’m pleased you won that too, because I’m honestly not sure why Kelpie’s engine was particularly up for awards. It’s merely an extrapolation of the real life hypercar trends of making cars go faster for less and as far as an engine in itself it could have been a much better package were it not crammed into such a restrictive space.

But then the car itself did make some waves, so I’ll take that nomination any day.

There is a way to see the votes results?
I wonder how many vote Znopresk had. :slight_smile:

ha ha ha!

Wow, what a pleasant surprise :smiley: Due to some personal changes I haven’t got the time to participate in the forums in the last months, and I just received the e-mail notifications. Thanks to @titleguy1 for hosting this. Also congrats to all of you for the wins and reminding me that I am still a part of this community.

I wish you all a happy new year. You guys are awesome!

PLEASE!!!???

awww :smiley: I am pretty sure you will, but I feel I need to relearn a lot. I haven’t even tried the lite campaign yet :smiley:

Maybe the UE4 switch is a good point to start again.

I have been waiting until the UE4 so I can use a wide variety of engines. Thats what I am looking forward to.

You guys know that the UE4 might come until march or something right? That is a loooong time…

And the new engines will come with the engine designer revamp, not on the next update. You’re going to feel rusty when start designing cars again xD

Ahh! So good to see you again @asdren, you have been greatly missed! I think UE4 will be a big change for all of us, I know a lot of people are planning to revamp/relaunch companies, me included, so it could be a good time to come back. But yeah, might be worth getting back into the game a little :wink:
