I, as well as many others, feel that voting is getting pretty ridiculous on WPF shows. It's getting annoying seeing people say "I vote **** because it looks like there was more work done." Voting has gotten completely intellectually- disabled and it's getting annoying seeing good figures and **** figures in the same match and people saying "it's a tough choice" or "this was a close one."
I think we should start doing WIP photos. Since people obviously don't vote on what looks better, this would be a good way for you guys to see what work was actually done instead of just guessing that work was done. Also, Jakks heads shouldn't be discriminated against. Just because people use real heads and try to make it look like a figure doesn't mean it looks good. Sometimes, Jakks heads are the best choice. If people don't want Jakks heads used on the figures, maybe you should change the stips to say it.
SO VOTE FOR WHAT LOOKS BETTER, NOT ON WHO MADE IT OR HOW MUCH WORK YOU THINK WAS PUT INTO IT, BECAUSE MOST OF THE TIME YOU'RE COMPLETELY WRONG. Thanks.

I for one, wouldn't want to have to do WIP photos, what differnce would it make? People would still say there was more work done etc.
With the Work in progress photos, it would give away alot of peoples methods, that they dont want to give out, so it would be unfair.
Honestly... 80% of the time.. the best figure wins, so I dont see what the problem is

I think some good suggestions/issues are definitely brought to light here. I think sometimes things really get overlooked in the voting process. I don't think the voting process is flawed per say but i think things can be improved on. Duaner has made steps to make the voting process better and i still think there is room for some improvement. Honestly, i'd like to see everyone thats on the card make comments and vote when the the card is posted, that should be a given, sometimes thats not the case. I understand more important things come up in all our personal lives and you don't have the time to make the figure you were supposed to but there are people who consistently no show and it hurts the cards and isn't fair to the other person who made a figure. I'd also like to see people commenting on everyones figures regardless if its a dq or even just someone posting in the forum, afterall everyone here can improve on the constructive criticism of others. Top tier guys like Dielawn, G1, MJH, etc can really help the new guys or the mid card guys improve with tips or suggestions. I like the idea of work in progress photos or something of that nature. It would be interesting to see how people go about doing certain things. Anyways thats my two cents.
