If I was FlipPro I'd split the prize to all participants in the pool.

+1

I've been watching from a distance and it all turned pretty ugly very quickly, which is a real shame.

Anyone who took the time to design for the competition probably feels cheated, myself included.

Let's hope for a better outcome.

+1 for the above also

I completely agree, it's best to just split the prize to all participants in the pool. Alot of designers did the best they could to design a new quarkcoin logo, including me.
I spent days thinking about the logo and designing it and i'm sure alot of other designers put days of work in their designs too. I would personally feel cheated if the prize went to a foundation.

I also think that handing the prize over to the foundation wouldn´t be fair for the participants. However, I wonder why splitting should be a fair option? It would be the easiest, sure. To split berween all participants would be a good choice if its only about forgetting this contest. However, the participation in this community contest was never a promised salery for interested designers. Everyone knew it was highly plausible that the invested effort wouldn´t be rewarded financially. I honestly wonder why so few are interested in a fair relaunch of the contest and so many interested in a payout. Is it only about the money?

I agree with professorY, the only fair way is a new vote. If people don´t want to take part in a new vote - which I would understand - I don´t see any reasons why the prize shouldn´t be given to the Quark Foundation.
