Many of us feel cheated because of the vote system friends vote for friends. if only Mr. Coinographic have a staff or people behind him that can help him decide which one of the many submitted design can win the first place, all of this commotion would not happen. but i guess this how it is, so good luck to everyone  Grin It sucks having no friends no vote for my design  Grin
They tried this during the last competition and everyone who wasn't in the top 5 flipped out so voting was opened to all designs.

Additionally, Coinographic has already stated that pointing others to the contest is fine as long as voters are not enticed.  I haven't personally done this, mostly because enticement is a huge gray area.  Plus I'd rather lose honestly than win dishonestly, but if I understand correctly it is allowed.

Should entrants refrain from pointing others to vote in this contest? I understand this can be a gray area, but the more clarification we can get on this the better.

We would all do well to remember that this is Coinographics contest and that they are contributing something to the community not many others can.  In fact, I don't know of any other Bit/Lite/Doge/etc coin producer who lets the community design AND decide on what coins get made.  If your design isn't getting votes, it's not necessarily because no-one likes it, it's because they like at least one other design a bit more.  Let the contest run its course and Coinographic decide what's fair and whats not.  he did for the last contest and I see no reason why he wouldn't for this one.
