I'm really surprised that my design didn't got selected on the top 5 even if it had 2 likes already,
If the problem is the printing thing that was mentioned on the post then the same thing applies to the iawgoM design.
Coinographic I'm disappointed on you, when I asked if I should continue working on it you should had said the truth, I wasted some time working on it.

There are other designs looking awful compared to this the quality is higher on mine

Of course you love your design, and of course you think it's the best, but honestly the gear theme is a little weird. I've never seen gears associated with bitcoins before. And like I said before all those little keys are almost impossible to carve into a working coin die.

Perhaps the designers of the contest should chosse a design, not the own obviously. For 50% of the count.

We put our time and effort in it and it is fair this way.

Coinographic jumped the gun again. Other voting thread is live already.

I was afraid this was going to get a bunch of people bent out of shape. It's a shame it turned out like this.

And I don't remember who all was not happy with my design, but I have every single saved version of the coin (the final submission was v15) if anyone questions my originality. I saw someone comparing my coin to another one and while I have to admit the do look similar, I hadn't seen that coin until today.

Also, I probably should have included more of an explanation of what materials were used in my design. I did ask during the competition if using both yellow and white gold was allowed and was told it was.

Mostly irrelevant though. I agree with polyteam-coin (even though he's destroying my design Wink

) that voting might be most fair on forums that aren't directly involved. Or maybe reddit?

Or maybe just ask mods from here, Litecoin, Dogecoin, etc to vote.

I ask that we please stop posting on this thread now and let it die. Can a moderator please lock or remove this thread?

Let me guess, only fair voting system is where noone is allowed to vote for me? Lips sealed

If it's like your buddy rob and wellenreiter (and others) who just vote for you (regardless of the fact that some of them did not see that there is no more voting) then no.
They shouldn't vote because that vote will not be true.
It's just your buddies doing you a favor which in turn is not a favor.
They just make you worse because they are not voting truthfully.
Therefor you are only having the illusion that you are a good designer.
Personally I think you are a fraud and that you are lying to yourself.

Yeh man, it's like asking your parents and family if they like what you made.

They are a Feathercoin supporter.

And we all know that iawgoM asked his buddies in the Croatian and Feathercoin forums to vote for him.

I hope you come up with a truly fair voting system.

Feathercoin!?, maybe we should let him win Grin

This is a difficult one. We all have friends and i am sure we would all like our friends to support our work. All voters would have had to have a bitcointalk account registered prior to the 31st August which will stop people registering just to vote. I guess we could add a minimum post count for a vote to be counted as well, but its pretty easy to build that up. I'm open to suggestions. Maybe

you must have made a post on bitcointalk within the month of august for the vote to count / but that could discount a lot of genuine voters

open to ideas....

Here some ideas:
(1) Allow only hero and legendary members to vote. I am sure none of the coindesigners have friends that are hero and legendary members because these are the early adopters from 2009.

(2) Let the voting take place on three or four other forums and not here on bitcointalk.org. In the end the total votes for each design from each forum are added up.

(3) Vote on facebook only? But here you would have the problem that all the friends would also vote for the same designer.

(4) Vote with an envelope by registered mail only.

It is indeed a tough one.
I mean some of iawgoM's friends just vote blindly even though the voting in this thread was terminated.
they don't even go through the trouble of actually reading a bit of the thread.

Anyway, yes it is a very difficult task and to be honest I have no clue on how this can be done and be 100% fair.. Undecided

What do you want? Only random visitors who stumble upon this thread to vote? Family members and pets are also forbidden to vote?

Mind you random visitors will vote truthfully, not because they have been asked to do so.

We will NOT be disqualifying anybody! Every design submitted will be put out for the open vote. If you don't like the design, you don't have to vote on it. With boxes or without boxes - all designs will be included. The winning designer will have to make all aspects of the design as per the terms of entry but this can we done after the winning concept is selected.

We are working on a clear set of rules for the voting, which if broken will cause a disqualification.

We will post the open voting thread as soon as possible. In the mean time if a moderator sees this thread, can they please lock it

Finally taking responsibility!

Mr . Bau your coin should also be disqualified. It was clearly stated that it has to be a solid gold coin. Your coin has a lot of black in it. Coinographic even asked you to make a gold coin design, which you did not do.
Also as a professional coin collector I can tell you that your coindesign is not mintable (the designs of the "clockwork" is to small and would break off).

Break off! Really, are you guessing this or have actually minted coins!

Coinographic, when you open voting through the community you should think about making this a fair vote.
For example each voter should verify him- or herself with his or her facebook account. No new facebook accounts that have been created after the 31st August. And no new bitcointalk.org accounts that have been created after the 31st August.
Just an idea.

That is not going to work.
As you can see some people asked already registered members who they are friends with to vote for them.

True, do you have any better ideas?
