Competition Heritage Jumpers Never Worn Before - Final Poll

[LadyPants]

Yep.

 

[alzy11]

Sorry if this is a stupid question but how long does a red card ban you for?

 

[LadyPants]

It depends, I got banned for a week last year, some get banned for a day and then there is a permaban. I think the mod/admin decides depending on the severity. A week is forever in internet time though.

 

[LadyPants]

It was when I was fairly new and I think I took some bay13 trolling too far.

 

[Greater Gattsby]

I'm sorry but wizardwaffle has been so great on this board, he runs competitions and what not, but he did this? He gained and lost my respect within 2 months

 

[alzy11]

Same here mate, I was stunned when I found Out itwas wizard

 

[EaglesFlyingHigh]

This news has shocked the FGD community!

It was fun whilst it lasted, Wizardwaffle

How did the Port Adelaide effort make the final?

No offence to the designer, but for a myriad of reasons (incomplete/wrong colours more in keeping with arch-rival Norwood, not the pre-eminent 'prisonbar' design) it's appalling.

 

[Omegaville]

I am so disillusioned.
Looks like WizardWaffle's packed up and left - images are dead, profile inactive. A bad lapse in judgment but I'm not going to rush to hang the guy. I'm just sorry he's gone.

This is why computer design programs have eraser tools; we all make mistakes

He made a bonehead decision, he didn't harm anyone. Hopefully he can learn his lesson and return.

 

[krisholio14]

Nah sorry he can't/won't show his face around here after that. And over something so stupid!

 

[LadyPants]

He's been red carded so I don't think a return is possible.

 

[jethro11]

This is quite funny.

 

[Mero]

Wiz contributed a lot to the place, and now because he was willing to cheat to win a contest he's embarassed himself into probably disappearing for quite a while.
I think it's a bit of a shame really.
But completely understand the need for a holiday.

Should I feel like Robert Harvey when he won his first Brownlow?

 

[LadyPants]

Now it makes sense that he was completely fine with people voting for themselves.

6votes

More like Dane Swan, because Sam Mitchell would not have won anyway.

 

[LionMen]

Wait so the Brisbane-Fitzroy design was rigged to win? if it was, thats a shame I liked that one.

No, that was Mero's design, and a deserving winner.

People voting for themselves is fine! You think politicians go into the polling booth and vote for the other guy to win??

Wait so the Brisbane-Fitzroy design was rigged to win? if it was, thats a shame I liked that one.

If it wasn't Mero's, it would have been an incredibly ironic winner.

You think votes in elections actually matter?!? No I just think in a competition such as this one where you can only vote for one design, have faith in yours that someone else will and pick the best of the rest.

 

[Omegaville]

Votes in elections do matter. You don't vote properly, you get crap unrepresentative government.

My view:
If it's a multi-vote poll, vote for yourself because most likely, you're going to be voting for others anyway.
If it's single-vote, don't vote for yourself, because your vote is limited.

Couldn't agree more actually, I just wanted to do a Port design given the variety in our guernsey history and this was the first thing that jumped into my head.

 

[Craegus]

Why do you say that?

 

[Omegaville]

Because the competition was inspired by Brisbane's awful attempt at a heritage jumper.

 

[Mero]

Does that make it ironic that mine was the winner?
Or would it be more ironic had someone else designed that and it had won?
