I mean what i said. Top 3 voted candidates weren’t in the top 3. You had your voting, but you didn’t. Even consider the community voting. Anyway, you already announced winners so no point explaining, you wont change your decision. I am displeased with the way you picked winners and i wasn’t even participating.

Some people need to show a little less sourness and be happy for the winners. The rules were there to see. What do the runners up win again? Cheers

You didnt circle the part in the second paragraph:  
But based , in part, on the votes of the Community.

Now you seem to not support my opinion but thats alright. Its my right to disagree with the way winners were decided, and its your to disagree with me disagreeing. Our opinions wont change anything anyway.

[quote=“Dan\_ozzzy189, post:26, topic:26981”]  
sourness  
[/quote] And over what am i sour? I wasnt even in the competition for god sake. .

I’ll just leave this discusion and mute the topic.

Which, if you read the full sentence, means that when they did the judging they had access to information on how the Community had cast votes, to help them to come to their own decision. I suspect you are reading this wrong, there’s nothing in there implying that the Community has an active part in deciding the final winners.

Maybe ignorance, not sourness then. Not that you’ll read it.

Wowza, this went south in a hurry. Let’s get back on track. It’s an honor to be included in the top ten. From my perch on the couch, you are all winners!

Wasn’t gonna comment but then people started insulting my Guild Leader. ☹

Bottom line is this: The official rules stated that the decision would be made solely by the devs BUT would be based, IN PART, on the votes of the community. That is there in black and white.

However, if you keep reading the GoW legal team covered their tushies and stated that reserve the right to modify, change, or cancel the rules at their sole discretion.

As @DrPhoenixJ already stated it is an honor to be amongst the Top Ten! So let’s keep it civil and behave ourselves so the dev’s give us MORE opportunities to win awesome GoW swag!!

😉

That’s what my gut told me, but I specialize in second guessing myself 😉

Congrats to the winners!

And I hope all of you know that by turning this into a B\*\*\*\*-fest that all you’re REALLY doing is lessening the chances that they’ll do this again.

Just enjoy it 🙂

Yea, I never insulted anyone in case that was aimed at me. I wrote a little poem and was surprised I found that I even got votes from folks that don’t know me, I’m just glad I saw some awesome stuff and proud of Saski jnr seeing as she was in my guild with her dad for a couple of months late last year.
