I  never saw yatsan before, and I voted for his design

I prefer more discrete designs and I liked his. I was in doubt between 1 and 3.

@yogg: Nothing against Yatsan but what if you ask your friends to vote for you? I mean if you're on the forum for a long time, it's natural your community or your supporters will vote for you regardless of the design. I think you should take the vote just for reference and then take your own decision about the winner.

I understand that my design is not that good, actually I am not expecting that I will be in the list when yogg posted the list of the qualifying members. Maybe you are right many of my friends and supporters here in forum are gonna vote for me regardless of my design. Personally, If I am not on the list I will vote for @plvbobo design. But, surprisingly not a lot of members are voting for him.

@Yogg If I ever win the 1st place just give it to others, I am just actually hoping for 3rd or if lucky enough 2nd place. I know that my design is not that good  Smiley

Goodluck to all!!!  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

I understand your point, and this is a very edgy topic.
Where do you draw the line between abuse and legitimate support ?

As we saw the event unfold, one way to prevent that was to allow only Bitcointalk "more veteran" members to cast a vote.

The Ivory Tower is a space where the less ranked members are not supposed to be able to intervene.
The poll was not supposed to allow users that are not full member or higher to vote, and we have little visibility over what's really going on.

This alone should have made what you suggest impossible or more difficult to achieve.

With GazetaBitcoin's post in Meta, it appears that you need to be full member or above to post, but not necessarily to vote.
This is not the way we saw this poll happening, as anyone can register Brand new accounts in bulk simply to cast a vote and influence the outcome.

I am not saying that abuse is happening.
I am saying that this (the case of newbies being able to vote) is happening, whereas it shouldn't have been.

In the original contest rules, we reserved the right to disqualify any contestant at our sole discretion.
Those rules apply to the entirety of the event. We do not tolerate any kind of abuse.

Not polymerbit coz I do not think the screenshot of the forum home page is appropriate. Once the forum changes it's theme then your card design will be outdated.
It might look busy but it is quite relevant. This obviously is a limited edition coldkey design to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Bitcointalk and the current forum screenshot is a good touch. By the time the forum changes, this design even if it wins would not be in production.

How is it cheesy? The culture of 'to the moon' ss what appropriately represents bitcoin's journey for 10 years! The art doesn't convey the seriousness of a currency. Many political cartoonists create cartoons of today's Politicians to mimic them and it does wonder.
You and me might not come to the same page but there are some cultures we really need to redefine.

We expect bitcoin to be a currency, but we hold it.
We expect bitcoin to be a currency, but we compare it with fiat and expect a high value against fiat hence the moon culture here.
We expect bitcoin to be a currency, but our dream is when it will have good value against fiat then we will sell it and become a wealthy in fiat currency. If you are really into selling your coins at some point then I think we are giving the wrong impression to the world. We are not treating bitcoin as a currency but we are treating it as an investment.

Is this what Satoshi wanted?

By the way, you can call me hypocrite  coz I too do the same. I am too holding my coins and waiting for the moon. I know I am another product of the culture we built up here.

I hope it makes sense to you now?

Not geophphreigh coz these designs are very cheesy. We really need to come out from these culture of moon and stuffs. Let bitcoin to have a serious brand image like a serious currency.

geophphreigh - Should win this easy. The classic design out there! I'd buy the card just for the design if not for anything else.

Not LbtalkL coz the log and text is heard to make meaning of bitcoinTalk in my opinion.

Noy palukritik coz too much contents which is making it a mess.

Now you left 5 more and feel free to pick one randomly.

By the way, no hurt feeling to any of the designers. I really do not know any of you users and my feedback was only from the visual I saw from the designs.

I believe self voting is not allowed.

I don't see how this can be enforced, and no, this isn't something I pointed out.
You are free to vote for your favourite submission, which can be your own. Smiley

Hello everyone !
(This poll is held in Ivory Tower to prevent any form of abuse from low ranked members. It expires in 5 days and will be moved to Archival once finished.)

Local rule : Please keep this thread only about the poll itself.
All the general questions about the contest should be adressed in this thread.

Vote now for your favorite design !

For the upcoming 10th anniversary of Bitcointalk, we imagined something special to commemorate this event.

We have organized a contest in Meta for a few weeks. We will produce special commemorative Coldkey wallets.
The point was for users to submit designs that remind them of Bitcointalk.

We have narrowed down the list of entries to 9 different designs; they are being presented in this thread.

The entry with the most votes will be displayed on these commemorative Coldkeys.
There are prizes to win for the top 3 entries with the most votes !

Made on Bitcointalk.org, by Bitcointalk.org users, for Bitcointalk.org. Smiley

This special Coldkey will be available for purchase during one month (for one month from the day after the poll ends) without limits in quantities.
They will be serialized and embossed.
We will keep the first & lowest 10 serials for a further auction. 100% of this auction proceedings will go to Charities. *

If you don't know about it, let me quickly present Coldkey to you : it is a secure physical cold storage wallet in the form of a card.
We have announced the project in the Collectibles section back in April, since then we have released three different series.

* : maybe split between several ones. Thinking of the Bitcointalk Charity Program, Free Ross, Save the Bees, Sean's Outpost.


Contestants are sorted by the time of their submission.
Designs presented here may slightly differ from the final version that is going to be produced.

In case where some contestants end up winning ex-aequo, we will assign hex digits to them and proceed to a raffle by announcing a yet-too-be-found block number.
The last digit of the block hash with pick the winner.

Best of luck to every contestant left !
Thank you very much for participating with your vote !! Smiley
