Re: YouTube video introduction poll
Unbiased opinion (I don't know any of these guys);
The Ratamir and Palcemvglaz videos are by far the best two, and will be the most appealing to prospective players. The other two don't even compete. While the Ratamir video is much better with the titles and sound, the Palcemvglaz overall wins in appearance and ability to interest and attract players. Visuals are very important in a video, obviously.
An even better video would be a combination of Ratamir and Palcemvglaz. Use the attractive visuals from palcemvglaz and the great titles and sound from Ratamir. And reduce the length.
Those voting for Boxis probably appreciate the effort that went into making the graphics and video, but overall it doesn't come close to the visual appeal of the Ratamir and Palcemvglaz videos.
The Intervention video is by far the worst; very cheap and amateurish.
But, why let democracy decide? Look at the quality of politicians that democracy results in. The owner should select the best video for his intended mission, which is probably to attract new players. If that is the mission, then the most visually appealing video will be most effective.

MEGA ULTRA FACEPALM

It shouldn't be in the list.
And just an additional comment, some of the most remembered and influential logos are those that are most simplistic. Adding 50,000 explosions doesn't help your cause for the most part.

Re: YouTube video introduction poll
The Boxis video and logo is original, but unfortunately, very drab and dull.
And, democracy is a dictatorship, normally it's the dictatorship of the majority over the minority. But In this case, it's the dictatorship of the very few forum participants, or poll voters, over everyone else, so it really is more like a plain dictatorship or oligarchy.
However, this website and server is not a democracy anyway, it's the private efforts of the few. And therefore those few should decide what will best suit the purpose, not a few forum posters, some of which are clearly challenged with even typing a sentence.

Then you failed at that challenge.
I actually agree with Si regarding these polls.

Re: YouTube video introduction poll
Can you people stop being stupid and either discuss the quality of the videos or let others post their views?
Why join the winning side if you can change the winner?
Re: YouTube video introduction poll
Stupid is to insult someone when trying to straighten things up.
It doesn't really matter what is discussed here. These polls only care about votes, not arguments.

Re: YouTube video introduction poll
In Si's arguments i only see the desperate will to make his choice prevale no matters what the other people thinks. If i am wrong i'm sorry,but that's the only feeling i get reading that post. I've wanted to be silly to make the discussion less heavy, but seems that people can't really get that. Maybe i should add some more haughty, aggressive ignorance to my posts so maybe people will take it for absolute truth, for what i see it works here.
You all aren't in posses of any absolute truth, i want you to remember that.
What we want to do is to make that intro the best for the most part of the watchers. We may not be an huge group of voters but the poll is open to whoever wants to vote for it and THAT makes it a democratic decision. You should study again the meaning of dictatorship and oligarchy. A sample of 100 voters with nothing in common (=no prevalent choice's orientation) is a good simulation of what we would get as viewers. I shall remember you that everything u wrote are your toughts about the videos, so please to add "i think-" to your phrases.
Yes, the server is private and Roel does whatever he wants (and i suffered for it in 1st person whit a censore hammer) but his aim is to get people and he does it by letting us having fun and deciding how the server could be better, always remaining blizzlike.
In a first place i vote for Raata's but the 3rd time i saw it i got bored of it, meanwhile the boxi's one isnt intrusive at all to me. That's why i changed my mind.

Truth and logic aren't inherently linked. Truth can't argumented, it just is. Logic can be argumented, which is what we are doing now.ribbaribbahey wrote:You all aren't in posses of any absolute truth, i want you to remember that.
From the forum point of view, sure (majority rules minority, checked). But from the server's point of view, no. And since the forums are not the server's majority, it is not a democracy. It is an oligarchy because it is the other way around.ribbaribbahey wrote:What we want to do is to make that intro the best for the most part of the watchers.

It is obvious that when talking about preferences it is an opinion. Adding "I think" is unnecessary if the receptor knows what an opinion is.ribbaribbahey wrote: I shall remember you that everything u wrote are your toughts about the videos, so please to add "i think-" to your phrases.

Re: YouTube video introduction poll
You really are stupid. Lol. It's not an oligarchy because the people who want to vote do so, and the ones who don't are apathetic. That's democracy, you either vote or your thoughts aren't taken into consideration. It's like saying there is no democracy in a government election, because the oligarchy are the people voting and they ignore those that don't vote.
Why join the winning side if you can change the winner?

A government election is democratic, yes, but not the government itself since the people don't get to choose what the government ends up doing or not. The server didn't choose the owner and the staff members. So your analogy doesn't apply here.Bluebell wrote:It's like saying there is no democracy in a government election, because the oligarchy are the people voting and they ignore those that don't vote.
