Happy Third Year Anniversary! This is kind of late, but I wanted to make sure everything was correct before I posted. Voting will last a day longer than usual though. Voting has started for Lyrical Triptych!!
---------------
ALL VOTERS READ THIS SECTION.
You will vote for the triptychs (the icon sets) like in a normal contest when you vote for your top three favorites. After that you will place two votes for each of the three special categories (Most Creative, Best Typography, and Best Show of Emotion). Examples of how to do it below:
How to vote for Triptych sets:
1st: 43
2nd: 59
3rd: 33
Please make it clear as to which is your 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choices because votes will be weighted. 1st choice will get 3 pts, 2nd choice 2 pts, and 3rd choice 1 pt.
Next! How to vote for the special categories. For these please vote for your TWO favorites:
Most Creative: C34, C51
Best Typography: T34, T51
Best Show of Emotion: E34, E51
In the example above the C34, T34, and E34 are all first choices so they're listed first. Then the 51's are the second choices. Please put them in this order because votes will be weighted. First choice will get 2 pts. and 2nd choice 1 pt.
You MUST write down a total of nine numbers for your vote (top 3 triptych sets, top 2 most creative, top 2 best typography, top 2 best show of emotion) or we will not count your vote. If you mess up we'll let you know so you may revote. Remember that you may not vote for yourself, and you must be a member in order to vote.
