Thank you everyone for your support.
Thank you to the Professor for making the Forge (IMO) the most sophisticated chat-bot platform on the Net today.
Thank you to the judges for giving up your time to make this possible.
And thank you Wendell for organizing the whole shebang - I know how much work has to go on behind the scenes to make something like this work, and it really is much appreciated.

I said I wasn't going to come back here but this news was too good not to pass on asap. Congratulation to Brother Jerome and Bildgesmythe. Never before has a PF bot won a medal in the finals and you 2 take second and third. Great job you two. Money and Medals to follow. 
One last point. Look at the competition. You won when ALL the best bots were competing not just a handful like the Loebner. That's something to be very proud of. Congratulation to "The Professor" as well. We all know it couldn't have happened without him.

Hey congrats you two regarding great work, clever programing and top notch bots- high fives and hoots!
Again (but everytime deserved): many thanks to Benji Adams, aka The Prof', for creating maintaining and improving this place for w/o him YOU might have been
playing Halflife instead of doing this.

We really need a +3 or larger to thank The Professor, Wendell and the Judges for all the hard work and time.
<+2>Thanks to the Professor and Wendell - Congratulations Bildgesmythe and Brother Jerome and the Rest, now I did it again. 
EXCELLENT!!
Congratulations Psimagus, Prob123, and FengShuiGorilla! Like Wendell said, this is the first time PF bots have hit the top three in the overall contest! I'm THRILLED!!
I've updated the home page and the hall of fame with the new winners, both in recognition of your hard work and to produce more chats for you as well.
For those that didnt win, I'd like to remind you, as I do every year, that making bots is enjoyable in itself. The goal isnt to win a contest, but to have fun and explore AI and laugh. So keep the good times rolling.
