The person who knows what they're doing should decide."<BR/><BR/>the pilot is RIGHT! to give other examples. do they let randoms vote for nobel prizes, the turner art prize, nobel prizes, knighthoods etc..? NO because when you let random people vote they don't necessarily know HOW to choose which one!<BR/><BR/>for example. i'd be willing to bet that a large porportion of people judge some by just looking at the thumbnail on the warehouse. that isn't judging the model!!! also anyone, frankly who voted for Vrjunior in the printer challange is guilty of this to some extent. the thumbnail looks amazing. so to does the model until you turn textures off and delete all the background (like it should already be according to the rules). and once you've done that its a good model but there were a fair number of mistakes and things which could have easily been improved. voting shouldn't be for your favourite. it should be for the best model! and most of the time there is one which is clearly better, unless artistic differences come into play.<BR/><BR/>and lastly, now that my mini rant is over... i seem to remember the other reason for only letting some people vote was to get more people to participate.henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07216334710830469396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4986990254141180682.post-43185123342443569182009-03-17T13:43:00.000-07:002009-03-17T13:43:00.000-07:00@LoganC I agree with Logan C becuase that now m...@LoganC<BR/> I agree with Logan C becuase that now makes sense becuase others should be allowed to vote even if they don't make something or they never make something but would still like to veiw how others do and vote for thier favorite. <BR/> Like with presidents, if only 2 are running for president does that mean they should be the only ones to vote? no becuase it would be a tie every time!TD2013https://www.blogger.com/profile/11680273552312017776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4986990254141180682.post-74186458383921745372009-03-17T13:36:00.000-07:002009-03-17T13:36:00.000-07:00Because not everyone has the time to model somethi...Because not everyone has the time to model something every week, but does like to check in and see the models being made. Just because they don't make models or post on the blog doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed to vote.<BR/>And if someone makes 3 good models in the week's challenge, and they come 1st, 2nd, 3rd, then that's great! If those three deserve to win, then they shall! Another model should not win just because someone already voted for the person, even though their model is better.<BR/><BR/>So I think that these rules are a bit more fair and lenient for the voting.<BR/>BTW, I haven't participated in a challenge in close to 2 years, but I still take the time to look at some models and normally vote!Loganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03106759307511420626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4986990254141180682.post-34508108231344416022009-03-17T11:40:00.000-07:002009-03-17T11:40:00.000-07:00why let randoms, who don't participate, vote?!also...why let randoms, who don't participate, vote?!<BR/><BR/>also, if you can make more than one model and vote for someone twice someone could win 1st 2nd and 3rd place. but fine.henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07216334710830469396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4986990254141180682.post-3794953675533084622009-03-17T11:39:00.000-07:002009-03-17T11:39:00.000-07:00I prefer the rules according to LoganC, looks fair...I prefer the rules according to LoganC, looks fairer .Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17576491510275389115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4986990254141180682.post-29123661175009499132009-03-17T11:11:00.000-07:002009-03-17T11:11:00.000-07:00Here's what I'm thinking.Yes, you can post more th...Here's what I'm thinking.<BR/>Yes, you can post more than one model per challenge, as many do!<BR/>ANYONE can vote for anyone else, regular member or not.<BR/>You can vote for someone twice, assuming that they are different models!
