Hi There,
I also got a mail from Lucien ranting on about how unfair the judges chose the final 24 and how he feels that when he sent in his photo when requested to do so where prejudiced because of the way he looks.
Now my comment is that, Roland understands and surely have the resources and have the infrastructure to run with such a competition. And sad to say that my personal opinion is that he is a bitter individual and perhaps does not understand the judging process, because Roland did not involve him in that. As I for instance knew what the requirements where to enter the completion apart from just sending in a design. And why at the judging stage have to ask him to send in his picture??? Surely Roland didn't have to do that, according to me if you enter a competition and do not meet the criteria, you will either be disqualified or not listed as a contestant.
The Olympics just ended, but just to make a quick example!
Michael Phelps has 8 gold medals. And when he entered the competition where told to have a swim suite on and a swimming cap. Apart from swimming he had to have a few things in order to participate.
Now, do you think he would have had the opportunity to dive into the pool if he didn't have a cap on???
So I'm glad that your open for a debate and think we should not debate about one person's foolishness but maybe debate on maybe getting a new system in future that will show you the amounts of votes you have as soon as the person voting receives the confirmation sms. Like myself, a lot of people voted for me through out the month. But I lost at the last day of every month because I thought to myself that I have gotten enough people to go onto the Roland site check out my design and vote for me. But I'm not bitter about the fact that I've lost the monthly laptop, and in order to win in life you must be able to lose.
Thank you guys at Roland that helped set up a competition like this, as I enjoyed the fact that I could express myself in such a way!
Regards
Wayne Love
