Congratulations to Akar!

The competition is not over yet, there's the 2nd round

[Vladyvid]

2nd round yes i know, but the results are pretty clear. So i congratulate for the results.

[Vladyvid]

Anyways, is there any room for modification of those designs in any way? Or is the second round simply about producing the remaining badges from the whole big set, all in the already established style that people voted for, with no changes allowed? I can be specific here, im talking about changing the font.

[Akar]

I would think such improvements would be allowed.

[Vladyvid]

Then i might consider completing the set, but lets say im not sure about that. The numbers are clear. Ofc thanks to anyone who voted for my submissions, but thats probably as far as i can go.

Only reason I voted against yours was the text... I prefered your background (submission 4), by quite a long way... just saying

yes they are

As I said you via PM you have 3 weeks to work on your submission; you are not obliged of course to submit it and if you want you can officially withdraw. If the problem is the time available, as the host of the competition I can extend the submission period for another week, if needed or requested. There's still time before the release of Troy, so no hurry I would say.

In any case, even if only one single submission will make it to the final poll, it is customary to let the people approve it with a simple two choices poll (ie do you approve the new set of badges? yes/no).

After ive moved to my new appartment, i will consider my options. I bought it just a week ago so im kinda busy with that after work. When im settled in the new place, then i will have time to think about this competition. Its not like im scared to lose, i already have some experience in that, lol.

[Vladyvid]

Realisticly, im not sure i will have time to do this. Im still not yet set up in my new appartment with everything, so after work or during weekend i dont have much time. I'm also behind the schedule with my modding, which is more important to me than the competition.

Hows your submissions Akar, are you prepairing them both?

[Flinn]

Potentially we can extend the submission for another week, but of course only if you tell me that this will give you enough time

[Vladyvid]

It all depends on how much time i will have during the comming weekend. In any case, I will keep you informed Flinn.

[Flinn]

Ok that's enough, hopefully you'll have time for it

[Akar]

I'm only working on the pottery-style submission. The second one got 1/5th of the votes the other did.

Seems logic

[Vladyvid]

Im taking a day off work on friday, not particularly because of this competition but all things considered, i should probably find some time to work on my submission. Therefore i think on friday i will be able to tell whether or not im finishing my submission. In case that i will be finishing it then i will definately require some extra time.

[Flinn]

Consider that I will be in holidays from the 13th, the 3 weeks period expires on the 10th of August, so even if we extend the submission period it would be nice to have them within the 13th (otherwise you'll have to wait after my holidays end on late August).

[Vladyvid]

Thanks for the info, i will let you know on friday.

[Vladyvid]

Actually had a bit of time, so i experimented a little.





Lets say the labels are improved, but is this enough? Would this sway the masses?
