Because the entire thing was kind of hijacked from that thread


I still don't understand what you're talking about here or why it matters. I wasn't a part of that thread so maybe that's why. This just doesn't seem like it should be this complicated.

So I shouldn't complain


You can complain and if you want to continue bitching, by all means, go for it but I never took you for that kind of poster. I still don't actually. This logo thing just seem's to have hit a sore spot for you.

When did I ever say we did?


Come on man.. You have heavily implied it with the repeated comments about "flyby lurkers" and regular posters and whatnot.

quote:

The logo that "won" was also that one I really liked (Reel and Popcorn). But it wasn't a clean process, scratch it and start over.


I guess this is where my disconnect is coming from. I wasn't aware any logo had won before and I thought B.A.'s thread was extremely clean and approved by the logo makers themselves.

Edit: I'll also admit I'm overreacting. It's a vote it won, that's fine. It just sucks that it won the way it did.

There were maybe 6-8 people regularly contributing to that thread.

Because we haven't been the kind of board that strong arms things. Mila Kunis, fine. I can just get into meaningless arguments over that one, that was dun.

This is a little different, and yes a sore spot. I'm possibly just recognizing a missed opportunity.

That's just overreaction. My bad.

We did this LAST YEAR (or maybe even the year before). We had a logo that won a vote, including a Reel, a Tub of Popcorn and one other feature. It wss a long, complicated process. I don't think we were considering the color change then. There were 10s of designs thrown out there, not just two, but it was a jagged mess of 4 threads, like 7 weeks of debate.

When we finally got down to a vote, the reel and popcorn won by a small margin over a few other designs, but no one really liked the process so we just let it go. I think we made a weak attempt to get it changed, but no one felt good doing it.

That's what the board, generally does.

Ok, this afternoon I'm going to work with Stout and we are going to come up with 2 - 3 good color schemes for this logo, we are then going to have 1 final vote, with the new colors, and just because of the discussion in this thread, I am going to add 1 category to that thread that will make the old timers happy:

"KEEP IT THE SAME IT IS NOW"

ok?

If the vote is within 5%, I will have some decisions to make, but we shall see, ok? Everyone ok with this idea?
