Re: CMC Contest: Players' choice poll

Holy shit... how many turns did the whole thing have to take to end like this?
I guess we're looking at the worst possible outcome of what I was afraid at first when I saw the whole thing get as convoluted as it got.
I already made this decision a while back, but if there's another competition with me in it, I will be the one organizing it and defining everything properly, and it certainly won't be here or in a forum format kind of thing, it will be something properly done. There goes the saying "if you want something done right, do it yourself", which has served me well thus far, and which apparently I should keep abiding to.
As for this one however, let's just quickly wrap this up by assembling the mappack and give the prize to the right participants, and be done with it.
No need for all this random bullshit.
@Carbon: Those in charge are either too busy, or don't really care much, so as someone who actually had to go the extra mile from the start to minimally define this contest from the start and get things going, and maybe being the one of the only ones here still interested in wrapping it up properly, allow me to be the one explaining it out to you.
There were 2 voting moments:
1 - A first one, from the participants themselves, and this is the one which counts to determine the winner, and its results are here:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=12447
2 - A second one, this one, from the overall community, and this one doesn't count for anything other than perhaps knowing the opinion of the community itself and how much it might diverge from the participants.
So, as far as the prize goes, memsys won as you can see in the link I provided, and those in second place are Terraniux and ExpEM, but they are tied.
Terraniux is waiting for ExpEM feedback to know how to proceed, and if he wants the prize or not, or how he wants to sort it out.
From there, I misunderstood a potential solution from Terraniux (using this poll as well), so this poll still is, for the time being, for intents of prize giving, meaningless.
In summary, your prize should go to either Terraniux or ExpEM.
As for makemeunreal, he just seems to be randomly stirring up meaningless confusion and entropy into this whole thing for some reason right now that escapes me, which should probably warrant him at least a PM from an actual admin to check if he calms down.
Either way, he ended up in third place, so unless both Terraniux and ExpEM explicitly say they don't want the prize (Terraniux at least seems to want to take it unless ExpEM wants it too), then he's not even part of the equation right now.
Hopefully now everything should be more than clear.
