What the hell is going on, they removed slogan scoring from the first page under participate, and it is now impossible to score slogans without first submitting one... I don't understand the rationale behind this bs, it really seems like the worst possible thing they could have done. Now the only people scoring them are fellow slogan submitters, and no offense to the rest of you, but I don't want some of you stupid asses scoring my slogans ; ) I mean the majority of what gets submitted is pretty idiotic, and therefore I don't think its fair that those same people submitting bull feces are virtually the lone deciders of how well my submissions do. I really can't even begin to comprehend how frustrated I would be if I actually took the time to submit an actual design and my only audience were a few select people. That would drive me nuts, I would be forced to cater specifically to their likes, and that seems wholly unfair. Granted that slogan submitting only takes a few seconds, and maybe a few minutes of thought, but I still do not approve of the way things are being handled.

in all honesty, there are a ton of craptastic slogans. once you click "um, stupid" several times in a row, it's difficult to brake that habit.

Yea, with over 1,000,000 slogans submitted there are certainly a ton of craptastic slogans - maybe we need a 1.5 rule for slogans :(

1.5 type rule would be sweet...whattabout a Slogan Tournament Deathmatch...everyone submits one slogan too it and it is pitted against others in a bracket...each round has individual voting, if yours loses it gets dropped from the tourney, single elim.!!!

or something.

@skaw you can no longer simply score slogans from the participate page, you have to click submit design, and then subsequently submit slogan after that...That doesn't sound ridiculous to you?
SnakeMan
SnakeMan on Nov 13 '08 at 10:02am
but one thing i do love is the blogs that are all "VOTE FOR MY SLOGANS" and their best slogan is "will smith can't rap no mo."

i do love that.

BTW, I score the way because I feel that there are indeed a lot of crap submissions that are taking away from others that are more creative and that I feel weren't done in a few seconds on adobe illustrator...Therefore I tend give out a lot of zeros to recycled ideas (the majority of skull shirts and cutesy floral patterns) and submissions that look like they are edited versions of clipboard images.

if a scratch doesn't qualify as a mild injury, what does?

poor table manners?

I was thinking more of having a look on your face while listening to a person which suggests you are not entirely interested in their reinactment of season four of Gilmore Girls and just barely hiding the small sneer on your face.


That kind of injury.

Must set groundrules for death match like:

no hair pulling
no popping pimples on each other (or other pus filled postules)
No hitting in gentle-alia areas

Will have to get a quorum on licking

Slogan deathmatch is the way id do it.
You take two random slogans and then the ask the scorer to pick which one is better. That way the cream will rise to the top and results wont be skewed by button mashing dumbasses.
