OMG ! I was floored when i read this… :open_mouth:
! never expected this, this year as there were so many great, incredible awesome & spectacular builds by everyone who participated… I have to say first congratulations to everyone who participated in this years comp, as it was so very much enjoyable seeing others but their skills to work creating unique, amazing works of art based around the reason why we are all here on BLF.
As the builds progressed, i began to realize the talent and skills of everyone in this years comp, which makes it much more worth it being part of this great community.
Also i wish to offer a sincere thanks & gratitude to the judges, the sponsors, modders, suppliers, sellers, to _ the _ for orgainizing this year’s event, and to all the talented competitors, everyone for taking part, and putting so much work and time into, and putting together this years amazing 3rd BLF Comp.
Now all we need is a BLF week or weekend convention or meet where we all can shake hands & meet the talent and inspiration that drives us in our hobby & interest here. :slight_smile:

Edit: - i sent you a PM _ the _

The effort that was put in from all concerned in the flashlight of sorts building comp in my opinion was exceptional from all concerned. The creativity blows me away and the abilities to build their dreams simply orsm.

And to the backroom boys and girls (?) this comp would not happen without you all. The sponsors, well what do I say as we all like prizes and thank them for the support shown.

The build lights from members here to give away are also to an exceptional standard and show the uniqueness of these individuals.

Congratulations to everyone this year was amazing for the competition…

Congratulations everyone you’ve done very well!

Congratulations and many thanks to everyone involved. I have thoroughly enjoyed being a small part of this event.

Reading through this year’s amazing builds has been both educational and inspirational.
I would like to particularly acknowledge the generosity of those members who have given up a lot of their own time and money to create unique prizes for this competition. Bravo! :slight_smile:

Congratulations to all participants, i would like to announce that for next years contest (if the organizers allow) one of the prizes for Peoples Choice Awards will be ” С И Ј А Л И Ц А “… (not to be confused with this years ”сијаличка”)

Congratulations to all the contenders! I have not always posted in the individual threads, but have read and everything with a lot of joy and admiration :-)

Looking forward to next year's contest already!

Many thanks and congratulations to everyone who participated in this year’s contest!

  • Huge thanks to _the_ for organizing all this, he bent over backwards to make everything work smoothly.
  • Many thanks to the vendors and other generous members here that offered the tempting prizes.
  • Much appreciation goes out to the judges that used their time and insight to rank the participants.
  • And of course, where would the participants be without all of our users to cheer them on during the build process! It was really heartening to see the amount of support and interest the build threads received.
  • And last but definitely not least: Congratulations to everyone who participated in this contest! I’m all thumbs and I like to congratulate myself when I manage to thread a lanyard onto a flashlight, :stuck_out_tongue: but I also have an eye for detail and I recognize quality when I see it. And let me tell you, the builds this year exhibited an incredible amount of time, effort, expense, and above all— skill! We have an unbelievable group of craftsmen and craftswomen around here, and it’s fascinating to see what you managed to come up with.

Thanks so much to everyone, and we’ll see you all back for next year’s contest!

Congrats to all! :beer:

Bump!!!!

I was curious so I googled them

MACEDONIAN

СИЈАЛИЦА - ‎lamps

сијаличка - light

well…not exactly how we use those words…

“сијалица” is big bulb

“сијаличка” is small bulb
if you google images for those it is more accurate :smiley:

:_( Want more.
