Jaffa Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 The World Cup has started! You have a few more days to submit, which is good because I only have about 5 concepts.the 22nd right? I read that in the rules, but the "few more days" threw me off a littleYep, I thought from the opening post we had until the 23rd - unless that's changed and I've missed it?

marble21 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I've got my home kit done. I have what I think are my final ideas for my away kit and crest but I am yet to "bring them to life".Probably just like most people, I haven't devoted too much time to it yet because I thought the deadline wasn't until the 23rd. I am personally happy for it to be sooner if need be. UBI FIDES IBI LUX ET ROBUR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysox Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Would straight up voting be a good way to decide the next round? Or should we do match ups. Then use real 3 point for a win/1 for a tie/0 for a loss to decide? @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBolt3 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Matchups sound like a good idea, but that may extend voting time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Id set up the voting so everyone ranks each group 1-4... 1st gets 4 points, 2nd gets 3, 3rd gets 2, and 4th gets 1.. Then the top two vote getters advance into the knockout round.Personally I'd avoid dragging voting on to much simply because I think interest gets lost when having so many different votes.. At least thats what I observed in the Champions League contest. As for Greece, man am I struggling with what direction to go with -- it will get done tho.

jdp Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 ^^ What he said. That sounds way better and easier on you.It'd be cool to do matchups AND home vs. away, but that could really bog things down for you, raysox.Maybe just the matchups? "Type something, will ya?

raysox Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Yeah I'm gonna just have people rank the teams with the top 2 getting votes. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmiller5 Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I would consider giving votes to at least 3 teams. I guess in group stages it wouldn't be as big a deal as with your Euro League competition, but with that I usually felt that there were a few teams that were quite poor and quite a few that were decent to very good. But when I looked at the voting some concepts that were well constructed but didn't fit in the top 5 finished below some quite poor concepts. I think that if there would be more of a ranking from top to bottom the voting would be more accurate. My suggestion is to either go with a 5-3-2-1 or 4-2-1-0 voting system, thus rewarding the top team with an extra point but showing a difference between the third and fourth place concepts.

raysox Posted June 22, 2014 Author Share Posted June 22, 2014 4-2-1-0 works for me, if no one is going to take offense to not getting a point. If your name isn't highlighted, then please submit ASAP. If we aren't completely submitted by then, I will delay until we get them all in because I'd rather wait than have some groups not be full. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
