Aren't all popularity contests based on looks?

aah, so that's what it is...

i've said this before - and i will say it again...: i don't think we should be able to vote for ourselves.

You can't rely on the public to vote acording to guidelines, ie. best concept and look or whatever was the intial plan. Most people probably dont even care about what kind of contest it is, look through the entries and vote for the one they find to be most goodlooking. Offcourse I might be generalising so dont take my word for it
Thereby not saying that I dislike the leading entry, but public voting can never get as reliable as voting by judges. That way problems with people voting for themselves, asking people to vote for them and so on would be gone. Worth to think about for the next contests..

edit: Are those robots patroling the city? I thought it looked like they where attacking/invading it, thereby making the piece more related to insecurity. But if they are patroling it, then that's a different thing.

i dont understand what we're voting for to be honest. Is there a brief or is it a case of 'oooh thats pretty'?

tomson · 04-06-2004, 10:24

Stickman · 04-06-2004, 10:29

Could you both contact me with your email addresses so I can pass them on to the sponsors.

Mik · 04-06-2004, 11:34

anticlimax - i was just about to send in my entry

mark · 04-06-2004, 11:36

Nobody needs to see your 'entry'

Mik · 04-06-2004, 11:40

especially after lunch time cycle.

hooktunfonix · 05-06-2004, 00:07

well... poop... my bookmark was straight to the comp msg board, i never saw that voting started ;x

ninjamonkey · 07-06-2004, 23:02

IMO, something's wrong with the voting process if #13 is tied with #3

dantz35 · 08-06-2004, 01:52

say how do i post a message?

dantz35 · 08-06-2004, 01:54

no wonder ican't find what i'm looking for

bunglebunn · 08-06-2004, 10:15

I'm saddened by the lack of creativity displayed in this contest. Perhaps next time we need to provide voters with criteria for which to base a vote.

byte · 08-06-2004, 10:37

i'm saddened that I didn't win

Even though I didn't enter!

Stickman · 08-06-2004, 10:40

Yes, as we don't like the results let's tell people how to vote next time. Or we could just rig it.
