Indeed, L-M-N-O-P. I don't know if this is a good idea. Sure, you get more people voting, but do you really get an accurate idea of what the people who actually buy shirts want to buy?
I'm afraid this is an incentive for people to just rush through the designs, and even though I know not everybody does it that way, but I'm sure there are people who just go around giving everything 0's just to get to the 240 designs. I don't get the 0-voters anyway, but that's a whole other issue.

Let's compensate that by voting decently! :D

even though i made the effort to score honestly, every time i rate a design my count jumps wildly between the 20's and the 240's... and my profile is reflecting only in the 20's

hoping the system can catch all the competition entries properly :(

man have they ever! in the time it took to score 200 designs, some designs i've been watching dropped by like 0.1-0.2! I'm sure it will all be taken in context though.

Yeah, there's always the skinny stats to check out and I'm sure Threadless keeps the whole 0-voters in mind when picking winning designs. So there's really nothing to worry about, but it's still annoying to see your score drop so quickly.

The counter seems to be messed up with the number of people voting. Is that going to get fixed in the next 24 hours? Also it keeps bumping me back to the scoring page instead of just loading shirt after shirt.

Either way, awesome timing with my insomnia and day off work! :D

author: Demented

Yeah I'm powerscoring right now, but for some reason the counter keeps switching between the actual number I've scored, and 95, for some reason. Keeps going back to 95.
Also happens when I check the score on my own sub, after refreshing a few times the voting numbers and score seems to vary quite a lot. Must be a server-cache thing, Threadless probably runs on a few different servers to accomodate the big amount of traffic.

I think I scored enough (properly), but the counter kept resetting part way through, showing 0, showing the right amount, showing 2? Finally got it to show 243 though, so...hopefully they will count it.

I agree that this will lower the scores but besides that, the price is only for people that score tee's not that often. If you score tee's every day you won't have 240 tee's to score. And that's strange imho. double fail across the sky :(

@biotwist, thank you for your kind suggestion. I suppose I'd get that message if I was an artist that submits work to threadless, but I'm not. If that's the case, then it surely is bad timing for threadless to ask its consumers to rate more tees, as they are all starting to look alike.

author: jeffreyg

time: at 11:13:10

yeah, but you do realize there is a 'no zero' and 'weighted' average on the updated scoring system. surely it won't be a week of high scores, but its not going to defray the chances of anyone getting printed.

People can just as quickly hit 5's to this end, buddy. In fact, since 5 is at the top - people would be more likely to just hit 5's if they were just racing through, dontcha think?

I think most people, while rating quickly, are still rating accurately.

i understand peoples frustration about scores dropping.However, i havent scored a shirt in long time, and now that i am, its really disappointing. not all, but a lot of designs have been really unoriginal and tacky. and i can tell when hard work goes into someones design and when people are just scrapping something together in hopes of getting money etc. i miss the days when the shirts were really great.
Ive been scoring honestly, and all my scores are honestly low so far.
really think about what youre creating and submitting. cause im really taking the time to score.

When people score designs, they probably don't look at each design for more than a second anyway, regardless of whether or not they have to score 240 for a contest.

A lot of the designs are crap, hence crap scores. Simple as that.

Also, there's something buggy about the tracker for how many shirts you scored. Mine was going wonky, jumping up and down dozens of numbers for every new score and then just went away altogether.

author: JBantha

Actually I've found this as a good incentive for score better the desings. How so? Well, I've always rated desings in groups of about 10 or 20 entries, so I really dont get to see the whole group in context. By powerscoring like a machine you get to compare in fresh memory one entry next to the other, there really appreciating the good ones.
I think this was a great idea.

No, i don't think that, since everyone's scores today, even those that have been consistently sky-high for four or five days now and shouldn't experience a dramatic flux in score either up or down- have taken scoring nosedives.

Even Alva's "Frequent Passenger", which looked to be the first 4 score of the year, droped from 3.96-3.5.
Don't get me wrong: 3.5 is an awesome score, but this was a bad idea.
The scoring challenges should be stretched over AT LEAST 3 days.

How I personally critique & score a design:

5 - Successful design & placement, proper color amount, a shirt I would wear [bag/hoodie/backpack/tank/etc.]/can imagine a friend wearing, original idea/fitting of contest theme.
4 - Successful design, poor color scheme/I usually make a comment suggesting a different shirt color, a shirt I probably wouldn't wear but can imagine someone else liking, original idea/fitting of contest theme.
3 - Successful design, poor color sceme, I can't really imagine anyone wearing this, odd placement, (and/or not very fitting of contest theme).
2 - Successful design, poor color sceme, can't really imagine anyone wearing this, odd placement, (and/or not at all fitting of contest theme).
1 - Unsuccessful design, poor color scheme, poor placement, poor image quality (which makes me question the overall quality of the print's to-be-submitted file), I can't imagine anyone wearing this (and/or not fitting of contest design).
0 - wtf

Just saying...I have a system, as I'm sure most of us do. We're not all just random people strolling onto the site. I like to think we're all artists--contributing or admiring--& that we respect each work we see enough to give it the proper attention & appropriate score. I suppose I'm just rising to the defense of those of us who do really score properly--even when there's a reward in it this time. There are many variables in judging, and perhaps the influx of sudden votes IS harming scores--but, maybe we're finally getting more honest voices.

Anyways, I love all the designers of this site--because they make it happen--& all the voters, because they make it happen too!

I feel bad for people who currently have designs up, specially those with high scores before the challenge started. Frequent Passenger by Alvarejo was destined to be one of the highest scoring designs of 2012. Heck, It was destined to be one of the heighest scoring designs ever! But with zero days left on the counter the score dropped to 3.44. Like Jeremy said that's still an awesome score and still has a huge chance of getting printed. It's not my design, but as a fan of the artwork I'm offended by of the huge drop in score. Now it's not even gonna be included in any list. Thank you scorers.

Short term high rewarding scoring challenges with a single winner is a bad way to get more people involved in scoring designs. Several winners with smaller amounts on a regular basis is a better way to get people to score habitually. Sure bigger prize gets people excited and vote frantically but after the challenge is over, even if they win, they won't score again. Unless the winner actually does vote on a regular basis.

Speaking of voting on a regular basis, does threadless hate regular scorers?The current voting challenge: Score 240 designs in a day. The only reason why I have 240 design to vote on is because I didn't finish scoring all the designs yesterday, which is rare for me. If I did, I'll only have 100+ designs to score, so I'm automatically disqualified regardless if i actually want to participate or not. Threadless seems to be content on rewarding those fly by night scorers rather than loyal ones. Sad, but what can I do. Don't worry though because I'll still be here tomorrow, still scoring while some guy who "scored 241 submissions, giving an average score of 0.68, helping 0 designs get printed" walks away with $240. That last part was made up of course. I just needed to vent, carry on.

my design went from 2.8 something to 2.77, that is from 200+ score to 2000+ score, so in general i think it is ok.

For all the designers out there, I think this is a good chance of practicing your skill. Learning to create something that appeals to mass, hitting hard within the first few seconds. Whoever made it pass to threadless print or pass the 3.xx score must be proud.

The copious low scores that I've given fully reflect my opinion. I would never wear 95% of these designs... and some of them you'd have to pay me to put on. Kinda unfair to assume that every voter is just hitting zero for the sadistic sake of it.

It depends on the voter. When I use powerscore on my smart phone, I have 0-5 clearly listed. I can easily see the designs and make my choice without any option being favored. Personally, I score based on a combination of how much I like the design and how likely I am to buy it. Most 4s and 5s I would buy right now or are excellent designs. 2s and 3s are decent designs,but not for me. 0s and 1s I wonder if they put in any real effort into their designs/ I wouldn't even want to see someone else wearing the design. There are people who are only interested in the prize, but there are plenty of people who genuinely care about giving an accurate response. Just because a score has dropped, doesn't mean people are voting indiscriminately. Just there are more opinions being expressed. Do take it with a grain of salt; don't take it personally.

But I DID score honestly, and from these posts, it seems like most everyone has the same idea. I agree with rocketpilot with a lot of designs are unoriginal, or just plain... rushed, therefore not being quality work. (That's all I'll say about that)

But there are a lot of really great designs, and quite a few that I would buy!!

Right am getting frustrated, this promotion is encouraging people just to register and score designs with hope of winning some dollar, this is not what Threadless is about, it is about a community of creative people that vote, comment, score, help, critique, encourage, advise, challenge and support each other in the hope that we will get a shirt printed. It is not about just bashing through 240 designs in the hope of getting some money.

New people should never be encouraged to vote with a financial incentive - voting should be because you want to vote. I'd rather have 300 proper votes than 3000, who don't even have a real opinion about my design.

Pls. don't hate me for saying this guys!

I'm going to say that it's a good incentive. I like the idea of 3k people looking at my sub, even if it's for a brief moment before they hit 2 or whatever.

I think everybody wins, because the customers get some free tees. I don't know how many. Just one 240 dollar prize between 3k people? Anyways, someone gets something and the designers get more exposure.

I'm sure Threadless will take into account the score for this voting period, besides everybody is in the same boat, right?

@Farnell Just imagine it's like your showing your cool painting to a small gang of artists who know about art and then you ask them to score it. Then you show it to your whole extended family and they don't like it. It doesn't matter if they don't like it, because the art editor / Threadless picks the winners anyway.

Apologies for my mediocre metaphor btw.

I'd also like to add that it would be amazing if the incentive was to comment. Ha ha, that would make some interesting reading. It also seems like the new voters are blissfully unaware that there is a Death art competition going on. Maybe it could be mentioned in the promo, if there is a Loves theme going on.

Thanks ----just my 2 cents.

What does rating does a design need in order to be printed?

I feel really sorry for the designers who posted designs on the day the scoring happened. I've never seen such a high number of votes and such low scores in all the time I've been voting on designs. I hope threadless takes this into account when choosing designs. I know it would be difficult, but something to consider..

Ok, just had a read of the comments and can see that a lot of people have talked about the same thing. I agree that exposure is great and threadless is a business after all. My main concern is that the low scores (which in my opinion are unnecessarily low) destroy morale and make designers less likely to want to continue submitting designs. Let's face it, it's the new designers who are going to bring a new level to the merchandise, as great as the well-known designers are, we don't want to see the same stuff repeated, particularly not if you want to get a new lot of t-shirt buyers. I'm not a designer but I am a buyer and I would love to see some of these new designs by new designers getting printed.

For all of those complaining about low scores: Threadless is known for it's original designs. From my voting experience, there were very few original ideas (So. Many. Skulls.) so it only makes sense that the scores are generally low. When you receive that much exposure to the same idea, it has less of a positive impact. There were a lot of really good designs out there as well and I'm sure Threadless, who has the final word, has taste enough to trump the low scores awarded by mindless voters.

@awolprincess Check the challenges before you score! The upper right of the design page state if the design is for a specific contest. Read the contest challenge rules and theme. The Loves Death contest required all submissions to incorporate a skull in the design.

For those who complain about the low scores: I usually vote based on MY OPINION if something doesn't like me, why would I have to give it a 5? It sounds hard but if I see something not original, tacky or ugly (again, in my opinion) I will score it low.

I think they should do this every week. It wouldn't even have to be that large of an amount. Maybe just a drawing for a $25 GC it wouldn't generate as much voters, but I think it would draw in more. Also advertise the voter of the year Bestee a little more. A free trip to Chicago and an elephant statue is nothing to sneeze at.
