Hi everybody. Today I'm coming with an honest apology for all of you who are waiting so long for the Community Awards 2008 winner's announcement. Due to a lot of unforeseen circumstances around the ARMA 2 release, the whole event ran into very serious delays. I would like to say again I'm terribly sorry for this unforgivable hold up and please, don't blame my dear colleague Mr. Placebo for it as the awards were a team effort.

Final voting for the competition itself closed May 12th 2009 to find the 6 Community Award winners for their community works they did for or with ARMA: Armed Assault. We have also selected 5 random names/emails from the list of voters who will also obtain some prizes.

There is no time to write anything now, but we have finally water in ARMA2 and yes, its not on sea level. Water can be placed anywhere in any height. Damn, there are more then 50 different ponds, lakes and dams :) And for the last, every water surface could be different. So take a look and taste, how autumn coming in to Chernarus.

Thanks everyone for voting for the winners of the Community Awards 2008, voting is now complete and we are counting all the votes, stay tuned for an announcement of the winners!
