Vote for your favourite reef club logo

[Delphinus]

It seems we have a number of excellent candidates for reef club logo.

Here is my attempt to try to formalize a selection process.

As far as I can tell, here are the following candidates (in no particular order, and if I've missed any, please let me know so I can add them to the list):

PS. If you have multiple selections entered, and if you would prefer one be omitted in lieue of another submission of yours (i.e., one was just a work-in-progress or something like that), please let me know and I will edit the list accordingly. If you would like your entry removed, let me know. Or, if you have had another creative flash of inspiration and have a new one to add to the list, let me know that too.

PPS. Am I allowed to vote, or as "self appointed returning officer" should I remain unbiased?

PPPS. I thought we should put a deadline on this rather than leave it open-ended. So as it stands right now polls will tentatively close September 30. :mrgreen:

You should have a vote, Tony. We trust you.

:mrgreen:

[Quinn]

The question is, do we trust one another not to vote multiple times? Or does the board software prohibit that?

Well you got a bunch in there to vote for Quinn :biggrin: ... how many times do you wanna vote ? :razz: :rolleyes: :razz: LOL

Cheers

[Quinn]

As many times as it takes to win! :cool: Just kidding. Everyone should only be allowed one vote. When I think about it, I'm sure the board regulates this, since you can't vote without being logged in.

[AJ_77]

You two are hilarious - yes, you can only vote once.

[Quinn]

I guess it's too late for this, but I would have liked to remove 2 and 3 from the running. I really don't like the mountains. Oh well.

[Pug Girl]

Can I vote twice? :biggrin: :wink:

Once for myself and once for the mini-reefer! :wink:

[Jack]

Can people from B.C. vote? :wink: :lol: J/K!

[Quinn]

Bump...

[Canadian Man]

Bump...

Comeon Quinn! It's not like this is Reefcentral or anything :razz: :lol:

[EmilyB]

Absolutely Jack...

We do want to be socially acceptable when we visit... :mrgreen:

[EmilyB]

I'm partial to 15 with some minor changes
:cool:

[Quinn]

Yeah I was thinking it would be good to make sure everyone votes, but then after I posted I realized they have a whole month... personally I visit the threads on the special intro page (most recent ten) and I forget that lots of people skip that and browse the forums. It was gone from that page so I immediately reacted. But I won't be able to do that for a whole month.

[Buccaneer]

Quinn ... if you use " view posts since last visit " then you wont miss a thing :mrgreen:

Cheers

[EmilyB]

huh?

[AJ_77]

I'm partial to 15 with some minor changes
:cool:
Yeah, I agree - it's the best combination of the other similar ones. What kind of minor changes - like make the water BLUE?

:razz:

[Delphinus]

The polls don't have to stay open for a month if that's too long...

We can also produce a short list of the above if that's what people would prefer... and then poll again based on that ... or ... not ...

If you want to take an existing picture and modify it (i.e., like making water blue :mrgreen: ), I'm OK with that, but should we reset the poll or let the modified one keep it's previous number???

I myself still haven't voted. They're all my favourite. I can't make a decision (that's pretty typical of me ... I know.. :rolleyes: Mr. Indecision)

[Quinn]

Thanks Steve, I always forget about that.

Ok mister picky, we can make your water blue. :razz:

[AJ_77]

Found you some newer Tang pictures Quinn:

http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=244190

Gorgeous! Can you use any of them? Too 4-colour?

[Quinn]

Wow, those are awesome shots. The exact type of thing I was trying to find in the first place. If I do a new one though, what happens to the current poll?

[AJ_77]

Dunno, but if you can put it into #7, I hope that we would be able to consider it...

:biggrin:

[EmilyB]

Yup, lucky seven is always open..... :razz:

[Delphinus]

We're a democratic society (actually ... "anarchaic" may be more accurate) ... we can do whatever we want with the poll. Myself, I sort of see maybe 5 entries out of the whole list that have enough votes to be considered a "short list" and maybe we can polish them up a bit and then go again or something like that.

And I don't think we necessarily have to choose one. For example if we were thinking of making Tshirts or something, one of the more imagey ones could be like the mural-on-the-back thing, and one could be the patch-on-the-front thing.

Just my $0.02... :mrgreen:

[Quinn]

Actually Tony that's a good point. We can certainly use both. I will make the changes as soon as I can.

[Mak]

Yeah!!! go #4 :cool: .

Okay, who else voted for #4 and what the Hell is it? :lol:

[Pug Girl]

So everyone what's the verdict? Are we going to officially choose a logo? Then what? What does everyone want to do, make shirts, hats etc?

:smilecol:

[Buccaneer]

I think Tony was going to pare down the list to a more manageable number and maybe vote again on a " crest " and a " mural " of the most popular ones ... and yes I am in for T-shirts / Ball Caps / Mugs etc

Cheers

[Quinn]

I am really busy with mid-terms and papers but I don't work today so I will try to revise my logo like I said I would.

[Quinn]

Well obviously I didn't get around to it... eventually though...

We dont like the fat Hobbit ( Smeagol to Golum ) LOL

Wassup Quinn ? ... Just reminded me of Smeagol talking to Golum on LOTR :rofl:


When you get a chance is fine with everyone I am sure ... most important thing is getting the good grades right ?

Cheers

Now Iam confused. I have read the whole series three times, and always thought that Smeagol and Gollum were just different names for the same creature
:question: :question: :question:

[Buccaneer]

Thats the point Bob :rolleyes: ... Quinn was talking to himself as noone had responded and he replied to his own post :eek: ( just like Smeagol and Golum did in the movie/book ) ... was just funnin' with him is all :biggrin: :cool:

Cheers

[Bob I]

Ok sorry Steve, I replied before reading the thing more carefully. My apologies. :redface: :redface:

[Buccaneer]

No apologies necessary Bob :smile: ...

Cheers

[Quinn]

That is a really great series. I can't wait for the next movie. What was Smeagol's cousin's name again?

[christyf5]

You mean the one he killed? Wasn't it Deagol?

[Bob I]

You mean the one he killed? Wasn't it Deagol?

Yes that sounds correct. I am remembering the scene now. :eek:
