WRONG.
My design is solid gold.
Have a look at my submission.
A solid yellow gold version was also submitted.

We are happy with our selections.  5 of us in the office all rated each coin from 1-10, then all votes were added together to form a total score and select the final 5.



Coinographic, you and the other 4 guys are blind. This is a total joke and your company will not be taken serious anymore.
I am no designer and I also did not post a coindesign for this contest. I collect gold coins and I can tell you the 5 designs that you and the other 4 guys in your office have choosen are weak, very weak. Also 3 of those designs don't seem to comply with the contest rules. You and your company are a joke. I will definatly be buying my gold coins from somewhere else in the future. Also that "elianate" guy was sending pms offering a payment of 20$ in BTC if anybody can designs his handdrawn coin with photoshop. So actually 4 of the 5 designs clearly should not be in the top 5!

Couldn't agree more with the guys above, Even if I'm not chosen I don't reply in hatred,
But there were other designs better than what you choose.

Your design isn't solid gold and clearly fails to meet the contest rules of designing a "solid gold coin". You should also be disqualified!
So basically we have 3 designs that shouldn't even be in the final 5 because they fail meet the contest rules.

My two cents....  well again, so 4  Huh

and I know I said I was done but when I saw Coinographic replied, I had to see...

You may find my comments unprofessional if you like.  Yes, I did lose. Again, I did NOT think I'd be in the top 5 but when I saw the top 5 I was bewildered.

Let me tell you what I find UNPROFESSIONAL

Here is your exact words from the contest description....


someone else says:

"I know you didnt mean this, but i actually think a square coin would look cool. Definitely uncommon..."



Then you come and reply to us that have some issues with...


No shit a square is not a coin.... Yet the square idea was "exactly what we are looking for"


Oh the winner has to design a box?  Hmmmm, nice to mention this after 30 of us designed a box.


Wow!  You have lost all credibility with me....  I will not ever buy from you...  WHITE GOLD!!! ARE YOU KIDDING? Your rules say .9999 SOLID GOLD

--White gold is an alloy of gold and at least one white metal. In order to make the gold white, it is combined with metal alloys that are white in nature and plated with an extremely hard element called rhodium. Although strong, rhodium may wear away over time. Replating is a simple process that can be done to restore whiteness to rhodium-plated jewelry.


Maybe I'll run a contest some time.  Have you spend a few hours on it. Then change the rules and try and make you feel like you are in the wrong.

You are a joke.

Couldn't agree more, total failure. Good luck getting designs in the future.

My guess coinographic just wanted come free ideas, the prize was too big anyway, should have listened to Robert: Whenever there is any doubt, there is no doubt.

Coinographic the 5 designs you have choosen clearly are fails. The coin from iawgoM has no box so it should be disqulified and the other coin is not a solid gold coin design, so this one also should be disqualified.
Also the 5 people whos coins have made in the top five are sending pms to buy votes.
This whole contest is a failure and I will not be voting. I can also tell you that you will never sell the 100 coins.

You could have actually taken a day to make sure you picked correctly.  This was terrible.
+1 - I totaly agree - this was more than terrible, this was an epic fail!

Ok, i wanted to post to deal with some issues and respond to people’s comments.  This will be the only comment we make on these issues on this thread, if you want to discuss them further then please send us a pm, email us or give us a call and we will happily discuss it with you;


The coins are not similar in anyway regarding the design.  It is true that you posted the 5 years of bitcoin idea before iawgoM.  The "5 years of bitcoin" had no bearing on our reasons for selecting this design over yours.  Thank you for your entry



When we said you should continue working it, we had not made any decision as to who might get selected for the final 5.  We are sorry you are disappointed, but we had to select 5, ultimately there will always be people that are disappointed.



We made a decision when reviewing the entries that the coin needed to be round.  Whilst we do like the creativity of the odd shaped coins, we just felt they are not representative of a coin.

Regarding the boxes…  It’s important to remember at this stage all designs are just concepts, not final products.  The designer will be required to design a box should that design win.  When the voting is over we will work with the winning designer to perfect the concept and complete the product design.

As far as your comments go on the design by bonksnp2, we saw this very much as a white/yellow gold coin.  It is the concept of this design that we like and that’s why we chose it. 

We are happy with our selections.  5 of us in the office all rated each coin from 1-10, then all votes were added together to form a total score and select the final 5.

Can i please remind everyone that this is a thread to post a vote for the coin you like the best.  If you don’t like any of them, please don’t vote or post. 

It seems this thread is filled up with posts from designers that didn’t get selected, this is inappropriate and unprofessional.  Anyone else notice how there are no negative comments from anyone else?

I would request please if a moderator can clean up this thread and keep it for the purpose it was created

Thank you

Haha, Yes Indeed Mr. S4VV4S, My design was based on Gears from the Mechanical Hand Watch.

First I would like to say that my vote goes to Mr. Bau.
I had expected his design to be in the final 5.
Even though I was curious what do gears have to do with Bitcoin, it clicked.
Bitcoin, it just works like a Swiss clock.
(that was your idea right?  )

Secondly, I too have some comments to make but I believe it is wise to wait for Coinographic to make their comments/statements first.

Third, to anyone reading the description of my design please keep in mind that, that is specifically for my first submission (see pics below) even though the elements/details are more or less the same for this one as well.

This contest is a scam!!! I demand the community does a revote for the 5 best designs. All the coindesigns that don't at least contain a 3 minute box and that are not solid gold should be disqualified!
Coinographic you truely failed!

+1 on Mr. Bau  I thought it was very nice.

I'm off to sleep and won't be following this thread any more... no need.

Spoiler Alert

I know the winning coin...

Round, with a design on front and a hologram on back. Exciting as watching paint dry.

But I will be interested in buying one of these fabulous coins.  My offer is 4k... maybe

btw... not making hot water. I was pointing out the bad selections until one of those decided to start saying he was the Jesus Christ of coin making with all his followers....   

Peace

campycoin is just demonstrating you have no ideas of you own, you make good copies though.

Thank you very much, I did had 2 more people liking the design before the Submission ended.

To be honest there was other coin design I did like too, Mr. Iynx Design and had potential, yet again was not included in the top 5.

Coinographic the 5 guys you selected absolutly suck!!!WTF?
The best 5 coins you didnt even choose! I agree with Campycoin,the lion coin had the best design.
I refuse to vote and refuse to buy any coins from your company ever again!!
I predict you wont be selling more than 10 of the winning coindesign!!!

I like MR.BAU's coin TBH, just a pity it wasn't selected as a finalist. Oh well, good luck guys.

Dude, do you even read what Coinographic wrote:

Why inventing the hot water? They said they will use this box. I just made a quick draft based on it... doh!


Do you even know where my bull is from? Wall Street, no? You get it...Bitcoin, finance etc...? And that one didn't go to finals at all.

Have a nice dreams 

campycoin, you right.

But designs that didn't meet the requirements should be excluded!

Coinographic, any thoughts?

This was me. I sent dj6230 a friendly message linking to this thread, since I had bought a physical bitcoin from him some time ago. I felt this was appropriate and well within the ideals of fair play. I encourage everyone to vote for the coin they see as being the most worthy.

Last post and I am going to bed

FIRST - COINOGRAPHIC ALREADY MADE THEIR DECISION, BY NO MEANS HAVE I ASKED THEM TO RE-DO IT. IT IS DONE. I WAS POINTING OUT THE MISTAKES

And I have no issue with you pointing out the coin, but to go shove it on our faces, "and it seems everyone else here is happy with my coin." You mean everyone you just told to come vote for your coin including your alt account and FTC friends?  Just makes you look desperate to hold your spot.  You stole the box design clearly, so yes, I can see it took you 3 minutes just like the bull you put on a gold coin I've seen a thousand times.

We are not trolling in any way. You could have been humble and not tried to boast about your "superior design" and lack of care for rules.

That's all.  Again, congratulations on sneaking through.

And a side note....  the contest was about being unique.  Different. Original

We are all very impressed at your 3 minute box design.  TOTALLY UNIQUE



Much like your coin which is OFF THE CHARTS UNIQUE AND ORIGINAL



But, it seems like a trend in this contest, originality all over the place....



Yeah, you deserve to be very proud and boastful.
