I'm sorry. I thought it was clear that the entry with the most votes won, I didn't think it needed clarification. I will make it completely crystal clear next month if you want however.

By definition of entry or by definition of car, I mean if you put two options for the same car on the poll and the combined result by car is higher than another, but a car receiving lesser votes but more by one particular option, "by entry" is not really that specific per say in hindsight.
 
I'm sorry, budious. I'm not sure what you want me to do here.

I just can't declare the NSX the winner when I did not mention previously that the votes will be added per car. It's not fair.

My point exactly.

Live and let learn. Time to tune now, I got a competition to win with this STI :yuck:
 
I'd like to make a suggestion. Some may agree, some may not, but...
Votes should be combined, to decide the car. If 1 car has the most votes, but the masses were undecided by the HP value, it should still be clear that, that car, won the poll.

For example: The NSX has 16 votes for moderate 19 votes for max
The WRX has 8 votes for moderate, 18 for max.
At the current time, it's pointless, because the NSX wins both ways, but in the possibility that the WRX pulls ahead in 'max hp' specifically. I still feel the NSX actually won the poll. This is based on the fact,t hat 35 people wanted the NSX, vs only 26 for the WRX, just those 35 people couldn't agree on what HP range they wanted.

Just food for thought.
Fantastic freakin' idea!

Crystal clear for sure...

So... Page 1, Line one of your tuner garage battle thread:
Above all else, the Tuner Garage Battle (TGB) aims to give the GTPlanet populace the tunes they want most.
60 people wanted the NSX, 43 the STi. Contradictions are fun.
I don't care either way, but the point remains.
 
I think you're insulting the GT Populace by attempting to choose for them. This is a protocol that's been going on since grade school. Tune the car. Drive the car. Enjoy.

I thought your idea was to add the votes if two cars and power values were tied. So, if the STi max-HP had 20 votes and the NSX max-HP had 20 votes, we would look to what votes the cars had, ignoring the HP variations. In this case, there was a winner for both the car and the power it should have.

From what everyone has been saying, I haven't been doing a very good job of this thus far. I'll end my version of the tuner garage battle and let you start your own which I think is what you wanted in the first place, until mine started to take off.

I'll notify the drivers and tuners. I don't think I deserve the constant un-constructive criticism from you when all I did was select the poll item with the most votes and tried to tackle this TGB as best I could.

Let's not overreact here. Don't let one bad apple spoil the litter. I was standing up for you there if you didn't understand. And personally I think it's near retardation the way some people attempt to push their ideas forth without any sense of humor or humblity. Professional new word maker I am. The setup we have now is going to produce and generate real and useful results.

You dont deserve it no. But thats no reason to stop doing what your doing. Just rise above it mate. You have a good thing going here.

Couldnt agree more.
 
Adrenaline is no dummy, I'm sure his method will be just as good.

Thats not the point. You have done all the hard work to get it where it is and its just getting fun. Personally i have been looking forward to this for some time.

It wasn't hard work! It was fun, man! :)
You guys are fun to deal with, so it certainly isn't "work".

It'll continue, don't you worry. Adrenaline may change the rules, but I'm sure it'll keep going.
 
Don't be a drama queen. I simply pointed out, why some of us felt you weren't crystal clear.

I've supported your battle from day 1, and every 'complaint' I've mentioned has been constructive and in an effort to help this succeed. People stressed that it needs to be more organized and you kinda brushed it off and that shows as we've already run into a few issues, as well as a lot of 'unknown' variables, that you seem to refuse to address until absolutely mandatory. Anytime someone presents a possible issue or finds a flaw, you act like it;s the end of the world. We bring it to your attention, so that you can fix it and move on in a successful manner.

I've gone out of my way to make it perfectly clear, that you had my support that I planned to abort my attempt at this 'battle' as to not compete with you, as I see no point. When others mentioned possibly running two competitions at a time, I offered to offset the dates to allow both drivers and tuners the best outcome, to avoid any possible conflicts between the two. I contacted you via PM weeks ago, offering you any help I could, and even offered you the option of copying my entire layout, to use for your event, since at the time, you had nothing formal posted. I find it far more insulting of you to insinuate that I've been trying to sabotage your efforts, than any comment I've posted thus far. 'Taking your ball and going home' is not the way this needs to be handled. Sac up and understand that people's 'concerns' are compliments not insults. People, myself included, are concerned because we want this to work, not because we want you to fail. If you can't differentiate between the two, then I'm sorry.

No worries at all, man. I'm sure you won't make the mistakes I did.

Cheers.

Well thank frig I'd not started working on our Impreza eh?

Seems it would've been a complete waste of time given you're so willing to back out. I'd say you're doing a fairly reasonable job; I don't agree with everything, but it works. There's a lot of grey going around but it is your first time.

Also, I don't think Adrenaline was trying to make his replace yours, just criticizing you a bit... And with decent reason. I had thought after what you had said to his suggestion of total per-car votes dictating the winning car and the power class with highest votes dictating that. But I guess not. (That said, I'm fine with it, just... You did change your mind several times there).
 
I'm not backing out, just passing the torch! If any of the work I've done so far is of any use, anyone can feel free to use it. I had a blast making the setup.

Hrm? You no longer running it = you backing out.

I'm going to be very sad if stuff like this keeps happening. Tuner challenges are always entertaining and getting my hopes up then crushed is no fun. :lol:
 
Was looking forward to driving in this over the next few weeks. Does this mean we have to start over again or will the new one happen this month?

Pass the torch if you still feel like giving it up when you're done administrating the first round. We're used to dealing with your system at the moment so lets not change mid stride or it's a lot of wasted time for everyone involved. Don't emo out over having your decisions questioned, just make them and tell everyone who makes an issue of it to STFU. Lots of CEOs make money that way.

I generally only criticize someone more when they quit over being criticized... so just tough it out.

HAHAHA I don't need more rounds to show you and the whole world my supreme tuning supremacy technique :D :D :D

"The magic baguette" I'm called, you didn't knew that. Ha-ha-ha ! You all scared now, amirite ? :D :D :D


Guys ? Guys ? Where are you ?
