Smargada, you were caught spamming and flooding the forum with threads asking ppl to vote for u. Ur spamming was so bad that the mods had to ban and lock ur threads. That alone should disqualify you

FlipPro had suggested we open threads with only our designs you piece of s*** troll!?!?! You trolls have appeared out of nowhere... most of you haven't even accepted the terms of the contest... and you come here trying to preach your FUD.

By the way... I locked my own thread so that you trolls don't go and pollute it wise guy!!! Wink

So... how come I haven't ensured the first place in the poll since I am pulling all these hack tactics that you trolls have been acussing me of?!?!?

Others would have just kept it simple, of course, and have told you to go f*** yourself... but it's not my style! ROFLMAO!!! Grin

World of Warcraft. Would make a terrific design on some ogre's chestplate.

@Smaragda

I wasn´t opening a new competition so what your point?

Quote from: ?? on ??

By the way... who gives a flying f*** if you like my logo or not?!?!? Huh

Obviously you do, as you are jumping up and down like a troll on amphetamines when people criticize your logo.

So... now I am the troll all of a sudden!?!?! Undecided

Ok... I get it now... trolling is valid criticism... defending yourself from invalid acussations is trolling... Gotcha! Wink

The funny part is that when I lose/start losing the contest... as I have been saying ALL ALONG... you trolls are going to crawl under your rocks once again to supposedly shove it in my face!!! ROFLMAO! Grin

ROFLMAO! You mad bro?

Wow so difficult.
The design of leigrecc is great, only I miss the colours.

I don't like the "the tribal" versions (also currently used) because that makes it look like it is chemical or nuclear waste.

I voted for leigrecc, but I hope the colours will come back

What part of FOREVER are you not understanding?!?!? Huh

Boxxl design is really stylish and from point of marketing it's better.

@Smaragda

Please answer the rest of my post:

"I wasn´t opening a new competition so what your point?"

You are trying to change the terms of a contest that has been running since November... has had a S***LOAD of delays... where the ACTUAL participants have been waiting VERY PATIENTLY for it to take place. What is it you do not understand?!?!? Huh

CHILL OUT... it has been what it is FOREVER already!?!?!?! Shocked

"You are trying to change the terms of a contest"?!??!?!?!!?!?! BS! I made a PROPOSAL for a reboot for reasons that I made pretty clear. I am not changing anything, as you suggest, I am debating an obvious problem and as we have freedom of speech I have all rights to do so. Your way of communication is inaceptable and asocial.

Here my proposal as it became washed away by your one-person shitstorm.

I think the contests should be rebooted for the following reasons:

1. There are two votes: community votes and votes between contestants. As I understand it the latter hasnt been done yet and will be flawed by the result of this vote. That shouldn´t happen because it allows strategic voting.

2. There is no acceptable way to look through all contestants. There is a Google Doc but there is no way the community looks through all of it. It is WAY to much clicking, thus the result will be flawed.

3. Some contestants and their voters were posting the entries in the forum, so they were visible, others were not. Same: no fair competition.

4. The contestants made different entries that are not really comparable. In some cases you just dont know what you are voting for. I voted for martijnp but actually I don´t know for which of the different types I vote. Thats the same for some other contestants.

5. Obviously there is some cheating going on, as referred by many community members. There is a need for a different procedure.

I propose the following procedure:

1. All contestants are asked to hand in a logo for two standard formats a) vertical and b) squarred in three scaled sizes so community user can compare how the logo would be used.

2. The entries are presented in a visible gallery so the voter can actually look through it. Every contest should write some lines (max. ~5 sentences) why he decided to do it this way. That is pretty important as community members will sometimes not see the "bigger picture".

3. Before the public vote starts there is a vote between contestants. The result will be secret until the poll is closed. Bot results are counted 50:50.

4. All contestants that reached a certain mark, I propose 10%, take part in a second round where they can present whatever else they want to present (use on mobile devices, webpages etc.). This will be presented in a gallery as well.

5. There is a final vote between the contestants and after that a public poll as in 3.

As the winning price is quite high and the result has a certain impact to the community it is crucial to me to keep the procedure as transparent, fair and self-controlling as possible. Currently I dont see that.

This is a comparison between current contestants that reach the 5% mark. Decide for yourself whether visualisations like that are neccesary to have a fair competition.

Hi there.
When I finished my logo, contest page was shut down, so I could not upload my variant for many days. After that I could not register as admin was not approving my request. If you like my design please add it to vote list.

The fact that I wasn´t there doesn´t mean I can´t debate it now. I joined the quark community only some weeks ago, and only recently heard about the contest.

It is quite clear why you are not in favour of stronger competition policies.

P.S.: Don´t play the Diva, just because I don´t like your logo.

@Leigrec

I think this FlipPro as organizer has quite an important function in all of this but I think there can´t be a "we can´t go back" argument. The winner will get his_her prize but it is the community that needs to accept and use the logo and if many people don´t think it is a fair competition then the result will rather have a bad effect on what logo people are going to use.

As I said, I just made a proposal. I think it serves a) to filter the not so professional logos and fake-votes b) to give everyone equal chances to present their work and c) to have discussion about the concept.

Until now there is no debate, only fanboy_fangirl-comments. The reason why is that currently there is no real base for discussion, only a huge ammount of entries that are in many ways not comparable and leave us user without a clue why they have been designed they way they were designed. To me that isn´t very productive and therefore I would ask everyone to consider changing the framework for the voting and reboot the procedure.

I am willing to support the organization of a reopened competition.

This is what it's all about IMHO! This is why I participated in the first place!
