We are pleased to announce the Master Builder for this year's Colossal Castle Contest. The entries were outstanding this year, and three builders in particular rose above the rest, turning in high quality builds across multiple categories: Fraslund, Lolino and Mark of Falworth. In the end, though, there can be only one, and Mark gains the title as our tenth Master Builder. Congratulations to Mark, as well as to Lolino and Fraslund, all of the individual category winners, and all of the participants in this annual tradition. Here's looking forward to a second decade of CCCs!

Great job to all 3 finalists! That must have been a REALLY difficult decision!!

Extra bonus - tradition dictates that Mark must sit out next year's CCC, so the judges will have approximately 103 fewer entries to evaluate! ;)

So well deserved!! I've learned so much from Fraslund, Lolino and Mark of Falworth, it must have been hard to choose between the three. The tie breaker then had to be Mark of Falworth's "perfect hair" :lol: Congrats to all three of you!!

You only been around for what, 18 months and you already won the Master Builder title :o I am a little bit jealous :wink:

Also, congratulations to Fraslund and Lolino, your MOC were also outstanding.

Now that we have 10 Master Builder winners (assuming that nobody has repeated?) this seems like a good time to introduce some sort of "Tournament of Champions" :eyebrows:

Sounds like a smart decision :lol:
But well done Mark. Well done all three to be honest, there were some wonderful builds (I loved the Robin Hood entries) involved so it wouldn't surprisd me if Mark won by a hair :roflol:

Congrats to Mark. You deserve it, but it wasn't any kind of surprize. With one win and ten honorable mentions, it couldn't have been anyone else.
