Night Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Quite simply, discussion isn't allowed through the announcement/voting thread, therefor you may use this thread for all of your conversing. However, even though it's encouraged that you post whatever concerns or comments you conjure, remember that spam and side conversations are unnecessary, keep the focus geared toward the SOTW.

Catman25 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Locked thread means it's still open, yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Posted November 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Yeah i just locked it to prevent anyone from posting, it will be re-opened tomorrow night for voting. Speaking of which you all have relatively 24 hours to get your submit your entries, so far I haven't received many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Posted November 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 For those who have yet to be informed, you now have until Saturday night to get your submissions in, since I can't start the voting right now because I won't be here for the majority of today and tomorrow morning, take this time to submit something if you have not already done so.

chairman ali Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Fix your SOTW image. It is waaaaaaaay too small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Do you know what, the quality is so high for what is basically the first competition after our massive hiatus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chairman ali Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 I honestly just through a render over some textures and did a lot of colouring XD not proud of meself.Btw, there's a guy that just voted in the polls. Clarify that he needs to give a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Hmmm, that should probably be at the top of the thread. And, um, someone should contact people who haven't reasoned. Probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Posted November 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Brief explanation on how voting works: Vote on whichever tag you like, for whatever reason you like. Comments aren't necessary, but preferred.In the past we've had far too many stalemates simply because what would happen is the only people who are eligible to vote are those who are artists themselves, and more often than not, they are already in the competition. What I still need to decide upon is how the victor will be decided, first to 5 or will we close the voting at a particular time and then decide the winner depending on who has the most votes.I prefer the latter, but how long should we allow for voting, we can close it tonight or sometime tomorrow. Also, I'm extremely satisfied the turn out, and the quality like Rai said is pretty substantial. I don't think I've ever seen an SOTW in which the votes are all across the board, It's definitely going to be close one. The best part is that the quality will only improve from here, I'm already anxious for the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Should we encourage people from the rest of YCM to vote? I mean, I doubt the votes are actually accurate, but I'm sure someone can go: "Oh, that looks so professional and nice." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kakashi Hatake Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Just wanted to post say how impressed I am with the SOTW. I mean, it's only the first one and the turnout was so quality, yo. There were more entrants than I thought there'd be and everybody's pieces are so nice. I'm not going to vote, but if I did, it'd be number 2. Thanks for doing this, 'Night. Can't wait for #2, yo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night Posted November 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 We still have yet to decide, how will we decide the theme of this week and the weeks to come? Either: A. The winner of the last SOTW decides the theme for the next. B. We decide using a poll that is changed weekly. C. A possible combination of both, that or something entirely different if you're able to pitch something better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catman25 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 I still suggest last place gets to decide. I'm not sure if anyone would consider that degrading, but allowing the last place finisher to pick a theme would make them possibly more apt to place higher in the next competition, giving the field, what I would think, a fairer edge. Hypothetically, if a winner picks the theme, they'd pick one they're comfortable with, giving them a hypothetical advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Posted November 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 I can see the logic in that, however since we seem to constantly have differing views on this topic, for now I'll just instate the poll.Hopefully by next week we'll have something decided.

Kakashi Hatake Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 I think Catman's last place idea is pretty good. I was about to suggest it until I scrolled down and read that he just did. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twenty-five Zero Oh-oh Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 If we could get this up during thanksgiving, might be good as we all probably have more time to devote to this kinda stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Posted November 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I've gotten really busy as of late, however I should have the entirety of thanksgiving free, so I'll take that time to organize everything in regards to showcase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 Well, I was worried I'd have to make a turkey-related tag. ohdear. This should be fun, and gives me a chance to start randomly gyfting people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
