May Screenshot Competition POLL

[Hooahguy]

whoa... swissbar should not be in this poll.
option #1 is now eliminated. sorry swissbar, i thought we told you to take down your picture.

[Nobo]

Why state your votes when they can be made public?

Well, the poll is private, because not everyone might want their vote to be public. That way the guys that want to stay anonymous can hide in the shadows and everyone else can just talk about their votes on here.

Since we left in all of the original screenshots, Swissbarbar didn't get to choose the best 10. So there really is no reason for him to be excluded from the poll

Oh. I thought we couldn't vote for ourselves. Oh well. And I don't think Swiss is the one who forgot to cut out the HUD so...

[Reno Melitensis]

Its between picture 5 and 15, nice duels, but in the end i voted for 15.

Cheers.

[Mediolanicus]

I completely miss the appeal of number 15. I think it looks like a children's drawing.

Hooahguy has the most cinematic screen. So he gets my vote.

[Centurio Nixalsverdrus]

Hahaha! We have a lot of children here, you obviously forgot ...

Yes you can vote for yourself. It's kind of a question of honour - you just don't do it.

In either case, just don't brag about it.

[A Nerd]

I voted for Pobs entry, I like the calm before the storm feel and atmosphere. The most popular was nice too, it was my second choice.

Indeed, those were the normal rules, don't know if that's also the case here.

I'd rather have a public poll, but that's my opinion.

~Fluvius

That opinion is definitely shared. That being said, I find all pictures appealing. The first tops my chart though.

I don't think I can change the poll, after it's been started... so I guess whoever sets up the June poll should keep this in mind

[SwissBarbar]

That would be pathetic. Didn't we just have a discussion about voting for ones own pic is just a no-go?

[Paltmull]

Hroth now has 17 votes, which means he will probably win unless he is disqualified.

He got pretty much all of his votes either today or yesterday.

EDIT: I checked the member list to see if there had been an unusual number of new accounts registered, but it seems that you've got to have posted at least one time in the fora to be on the list. So if you've only registered an account and voted without posting, you won't be on the member list.

[Ludens]

Hroth now has 17 votes, which means he will probably win unless he is disqualified.

According to Ser Clegane, Hroth has registered sixteen accounts, most of them today. He's got one vote from Frontline and seventeen votes total. Hmm...

[Paltmull]

Omg, this is the most pathetic thing ever

Well, this is kind of a good argument for not having anonymous polls...

[Fluvius Camillus]

That's why I like public results, good for the next month!

Lowly cheating like this will get him disqualified, right?

Also, SwissBarbar, you should rehost your siggy from the other month.

Have you gone mad with (whatever sort of) power, or why are you little fart commanding here, as if you were our mama?

[Hooahguy]

Have you gone mad with (whatever sort of) power, or why are you little fart commanding here, as if you were our mama?

no, just cause i remember how things were done.
plus those were the rules which we all, including you, agreed on.
that said, im going to withdraw my screen from the competition.

[Paltmull]

Hooahguy: I'm largely responsible for the exception from the rules, and feel kind of guilty for this misunderstanding and you being upset. I've quoted the conversation from the screenshot competition thread, so you'll get what's going on.

EDIT: Btw, that thing about the winner of the last competition picking the 10 best pics, is that really necessary this time? Sure, if there had been like 20-25 screenshots that would be a good idea, but so far there are only 15. Would'nt really be nice to the five that got theirs eliminated, right? :P

We'll keep them all... as long as there are not 20 more that comes... if it's stays on this level, everyone will get a shot at it ;)

Intifadanyz thats awesome. I don't envy the judges at all, too many awesome pictures!

Everyone is judges. There's gonna be a poll. :)

No, there won't be a poll. They said, that the winner of the last competition (me) is going to judge (that's why I could not compete this time )

Nah, you were supposed to pick the 10 best, and then there would be a poll. But since there aren't so many submissions, you won't have to pick any. Or so I think at least... As Duguntz said:

We'll keep them all... as long as there are not 20 more that comes... if it's stays on this level, everyone will get a shot at it ;)

So I can't do anything in this competition?

Well, I'm not responsible for the competition, but it seems logical that you can compete if you're not judging :) So I guess your picture will be in the poll, but I'm not sure of course.

of corse it will! as he dosen't judge anymore nothing forbid him now to participate! you're welcome Swissbarbar

Ueeee, yipie ^^

[Hooahguy]

alright, i understand. but i still want mine to be excluded from this poll.

the way it was always done is after the deadline for pics ended, the EB team would pic the ten best, then make a poll with those ten best.
but because it is quite clear that the EB team has either no interest/time for this, we decided that the winner of the previous competition should pick the top ten.
and because he would be picking, it wouldnt be fair if he also had a submission.
that is why i was so opposed to Swissbarbar having an entry.

[SwissBarbar]

no, just cause i remember how things were done.
plus those were the rules which we all, including you, agreed on.
that said, im going to withdraw my screen from the competition.

Well, yeah, but you could have asked nicely, and not just command what everyone has to do. No reason to be a sorehead now.

[vartan]

Which fool voted for my picture? It clearly deserves the Phail of the Month award! (=

[Paltmull]

When is the final date for this poll btw?

[vartan]

Doesn't look like it was given an expiry date. Foolish mistake on part of the creator, but forgivable.

[Hooahguy]

my apologies, didnt mean it to be so soreheaded.

[Benster]

Is it too late to submit a pic?

[Nobo]

Doesn't look like it was given an expiry date. Foolish mistake on part of the creator, but forgivable.

Yea, that's my bad. I couldn't find an end date in the original screenshot thread, so i left it open. In hindsight, not the best idea

Is it too late to submit a pic?

It is for this month, but I'm sure a June Screenshot Competition will spring up soon, so don't throw out your pics
