As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

The three watches are truly amazing and are a testament to the prowess of these bargain hunting warriors.

Thank you to everyone that participated wether you voted, hunted, posted an entry or even lurked the thread. It was a great challenge and I hope that you guys enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed hosting it. Hopefully I will see you, along with some new participants, at the next challenge.

Congrats [mention]Animal Mother[/mention] and [mention]BostonCharlie[/mention]! I think all the entries were pretty fantastic, but yours were my two votes...so I am particularly happy with the result. Both are beautiful examples and in great condition for their age.
