Talk LIMS #8: Final Results!

Re: Talk LIMS #8: Challenge 9 - Voting!

Sorry for the delay! I should have results in the next day or two. Until then, I have a question:

How would you (the participants) feel if I only eliminated one participant this round? I'd like to have an even number going into the last few rounds.
 
Re: Talk LIMS #8: Challenge 9 - Voting!

It's okay with me, running the MISC LIMS I know how hard it is not having an equal amount for the end.
 
Re: Talk LIMS #8: Challenge 9 - Voting!

It's okay with me, but we're 8. Eliminating only one would make us 7. How is that even? Or am I missing something? :lol: :rolleyes:
 
Re: Talk LIMS #8: Challenge 9 - Voting!

one person skipped this round, which makes us 9. :) i don't really care how we do it, so if it's easier on you, Dragonfly, it's ok with me as well.
 
Re: Talk LIMS #8: Challenge 9

I agree with saying "It's not Pop Art" should not be acceptable ... because I feel we all have our on views on what is considered Pop Art and what isn't ;)

In all honesty, I don't agree with the statement: " 'it's not pop art' is also not an acceptable vote". Since it's a pop art theme (being that the difficulty was to achieve a pop art effect), I honestly don't understand why we shouldn't express such a statement. I mean pop art was an art movement with its own techniques: though they were quite different from country to country, I think some things cannot be considered pop art even if you percieve them like that. Oh well that was just my honest opinion on the matter ;)

And I agree with Florry. As the theme was Pop Art why not "criticise" that one or more icons aren't Pop Art? We all know that everyone gave his/her best and all icons are good, but icon-making is about always learning new techniques. Personally, I've never tried the Pop Art style and it was interesting to experiment with it.

Thanks for the feedback ;) I'll take all of this into consideration in the future. My reasoning behind this is that people should be voting based on the quality of each of the icons. If I didn't think that an icon fit the theme, I wouldn't have accepted it as an entry. Also, as Teddy Bear Dr stated, everyone has different opinion on what is or isn't pop art.

Dragonfly icon #8 according to your math has -5 points and icon #1 has -6, so doesn't that mean that #1 should be the one eliminated?

No ;) The way that I calculate who gets eliminated is by looking only at the negative votes. I only look at the positive votes if there's a tie that needs to be broken. I do the opposite for voter's choice: only looking at the negative votes if there's a tie. It may not be the way that everyone does it, but it's how I've always done it.

I've always wondered how the votes were counted... it's clear now :)

Anyway, sorry to see you go Miss_undercover... and thank you so much for the mod's choice award (I have to say it was a very "controversial" icon, with lots of positive and negative votes :rolleyes:)
 
Re: Talk LIMS #8: Challenge 9 - Results!

~ Submit your icon by sending me (Dragonfly) a PM with the subject line LIMS Round 10 or similar.
