Threadless

Kallen
Kallen aka Kallen Williams is 41.24 years old, has been a member since June 1, 2005, has scored 2,447 submissions, giving an average score of 1.84, helping 19 designs get printed.
I'm looking for info on how the judging and scoring process works, and since there isn't a search feature on the blog, it's going to take a really long time to find answers to questions I have.

At what point do i see the kind of scores I'm getting on a design submission? after 100? after its 'disqualified' or qualified?

Why doesn't Threadless include a reprint # on shirts they reprint (or do they???)

If a shirt is reprinted, does the designer get a fresh cut on the new sales?

among the other questions I've had. Can anyone answer these?

thx

- your score is revealed after it's finished in the running:

a) after 100 scores with < 1.5 (dropped from the running)

b) after 7 days (completed scoring)



- what good is a reprint number? i guess maybe it's good for gauging the chances of a further reprint, but the only real indication of that is the sales info which we don't see.



- the designer is credited with a flat prize (this is a contest) no matter what kind of sales the shirt sees, so it doesn't matter if it gets reprinted or not.

I was thinking a reprint number would make the initial run of shirts more 'valuable' somehow, and would also facilitate pplz buying shirts. Not really important, but would be something easy to do. It could become interesting if there's a limited run of shirts, like books.

I understand what you're saying. One thing I love about these shirts is that I won't run into someone wearing the same shirt, or even someone who knows someone who owns the same shirt. If it comes to the point where I occasionally see these on other people, I'll probably stop buying. Having something completely unique and very cool is what threadless is to me.
