I'm surprised to see those three as the finalist, never would have figured that...

Though if all the people how preferred different schemes elected not to vote because they made an entry themselves I guess it shouldn't be very surprising :cuss

 

I kinda like one of them, figure I better vote for it!

I think it was only Ecritter who chose not to vote.

Although I'm boldly making this claim without any actual evidence one way or the other. :)

[Ecritter]

I did not, and do not, vote when I have an entry in the challenge. I did vote this last time, since my entry did not pass through to second round.

[Dark Apostle Thirst]

The one I liked the most didn't make it, although one I did vote for did end up in the finals. Hmmm.

[Octavulg]

I actually voted for two of the finalists. :RTBBB:

[Nomus Sardauk]

Greetings Brothers, pray tell, how does one go about voting for a color scheme?

PM Brother Tyler with your vote ... its that easy.

[Shinzaren]

Send a PM to BroTyler, explaining how you would like to spend your 6 points.

 

IE:

Scheme #9 - 4 points

Scheme #4 - 1 points

Scheme #7 - 1 points

[Ecritter]

But you only get 1 vote for this tie breaker. :P

[Octavulg]

Indeed. One man, one vote.

[Ecritter]

Indeed. One man, one vote.

 

One man ... or one genetically engineered super-human part of the Primarch Project, like ME!!

[Shinzaren]

Ahh, sorry. Didn't even realize it was only 1 vote. I stayed out of this tie breaker, since none of my choices got voted in :P

[Octavulg]

So? That's the point of having a tie-breaker. The people whose choices are gone get to vote, too.

If you're wondering who submitted what scheme, the numbers were assigned in alphabetical order by member name, so just go 1-15 down the line (don't forget to include elohimalpha as #8).

Element 3 will be up in a separate post since this one will be done by poll rather than submission.

[Brother Tyler]

Element 3 Poll/discussion here.

[AngryJohnny]

Congratulations elohimalpha!

[Ecritter]

Does that mean I get to use the same banner twice in my sig?

[Brother Cambrius]

Congrats elohimalpha. :tu: Mine almost got there being one of the final three but I found the chosen one to be far better. Great effort by all who participated.

[Heru]

Really... the worst of the three won? :)

 

I mean sure it would have been good (in my opinion), if it didn't have the follow issues:

 

1. Alternate colour knee pads.

2. Alternate colour shoulder pad trims.

3. The back pack isn't halved (this one is the worst, as it breaks the halved scheme).

 

 

 

Ah well, I didn't vote anyways (I'm not having anything proper to do with this "community" challenge).

 

:shrug:

 

 

Edit: Added the bracketed bit on number 3.

Heru, I would suggest you think about how you respond to these posts. There worst of the three won in your opinion - obviously it wasn't the worst of the three in the opinion of the community.

[elohimalpha]

Thanks guys! I'm just glad I didn't have to submit a painted model too - gonna be a bear to paint!

 

And Heru, well, I'm sure there's some sort of saying about not pleasing everyone that applies here, but that aside, you can't be too upset if you didn't even participate...

 

On to the next challenge!

I did say in my opinion... (it's in brackets).

Despite my opinions on your scheme congrats on your win.

Granted. However I'm inclined to agree with Heru - this one picked is not the best. But, as the community wishes, it won. Congrats to elohimalpha, but I personally didn't like it (nor the others that were finalised) and as such, I didn't vote for any of them.

[Chapter Master Ignis Domus]

I think I voted for this one. I have memory problems. What was I saying?

 

EDIT: Yes, I did. Congrats, Elohim.

[Ecritter]

Whether you liked the scheme or not is not at issue, its poor sportsmanship. The scheme was picked by a majority of votes, so the group must have thought it was the best. And since this is a group project ... we must abide by the majority rule.

 

I entered the best idea in both challenges so far, my opinion of course and highly biased, but I lost and you don't hear me complaining ... well maybe a little but its all in jest. :D

 

Congrats elohimalpha on having the best color scheme.
