I must warn whoever is running the next comp how things work You want to do something and you ask for thoughts, and you get nothing. You then make a decision, announce it, then move on. Later you'll get 5 PMs asking you "what the **** are you doing???!!!one11!!"

Like seriously! Sooo many questions about why everything is happening like it is.. I need more vocal feedback from you guys please! Constructive vocal feedback, not the "You're a loser and your competition is a loser" type

I dont think so asking if the winner wants the money or a trip is really a goer, Nokia have said they'd substitute a N900 if someone cant do the trip - I cant really see anyone taking the money. To me it looks like the 2 options are:

1. Each of the 6 categories gets equal share of bounty. 1st/2nd/3rd get 50%/30%20% of that share.

2. Each of the 6 categories gets equal share of bounty. 2nd/3rd/4th get 50%/30%20% of that share as Nokia are rewarding the 1st place winner. If for any reason the Nokia reward falls through, revert back to option 1.

If I get one person who says "Yes" to this idea, I'll start up the poll.

Else, gimme some more options!!

In this case I would say lets give the first place only the Nokia reward. The trip (or a new N900) is expensive enought for a first place.
So give place 2, 3 and 4 also something... a small motivation is always good.

No, a choice between $80, a trip to Ireland or a Nokia N900.
So, if you prefer money... would you pick the $80 or a new N900?

This competition is great kojacker, thank you for your effort.
It is not that important for me, how the prizes are shared.
The important part for me is: We all have won because
we get so many great new applications.
Thanks to all developer for your work.

regards

Nicolai

You are all waaaaay too nice!

Helex - I'd definitely choose the new N900 over the $80, although prices of new ones are dropping all the time!

We'll give it a while yet but I think we're gonna run this poll with the above 2 options.... unless someone Ninja's in with a suggestion or two...

I'm sorry. I had to fix a dependencies problem on my device and after that I began writing but my telephone rang before I submitted my answer... I'm sorry, and yes... I'm always very bussy.

I uploaded a new package (only with a fixed description) for my application and promoted it directly to extra testing to avoid confusion. I had before a older version in testing. But I guess this way it is, as attila77 said earlier, better.

I'm well with booth of your suggestions. My only problem now is to be patient enought to see the Multimedia voting thread online.

I totally agree. Those are the only sensible options. Out of which I would choose the second one. I hope there will be promised prizes from Nokia. If so the competitions will be even greater success than it is right now. Thanks kojacker!

I vote for:

Each of the 6 categories gets equal share of bounty. 2nd/3rd/4th get 50%/30%20% of that share as Nokia are rewarding the 1st place winner.

If for any reason the Nokia reward falls through, revert back to option 1.

Where is the poll, kojacker?

I was kinda hoping I could just knock a poll up and stick on here rather than making a new thread just for the poll. I cant see any option for that on "new post" or editing the first post. Does anyone know if that's possible?

What about creating a new thread (with poll) and then merging the two threads? I have heard moderators can merge threads?

By the way, Beginner Apps Voting thread should be a sticky, just as Game Apps Voting thread.

The voting thread for Graphics & Multimedia is up. As always, please check everything is ok (especially links) and let me know if you need any changes

hmm .. good thinking..

Already requested I request they're made a sticky as soon as I make them, but i think we just have to wait until a mod sees the request.
