Common Coolzee nobody likes loosing, but at the same time nobody likes a sore loser...
Take your loss and let it go...
I'm disappointed as well, but this is not the way to voice your disappointment...

First of all its a bit arrogant to be posting asking for an explanation as to why you didn't win. It's a contest, if you win you win, if you don't win then you have some modesty and congratulate the winners rather than complain because you didn't get your way.

But all things asides, so people know here is the thought process:

Blue grass was shortlisted as a finalist for functionality. In the end it was between blue grass and honeycomb.

What clinched it was the fact that Dada clearly had spent more time on his skin because more of Messenger was skinned and modified. Since the category that both these skins fell into was functionality / coding, it would have been unfair to overlook the honeycomb skin simply because it didn't look as stylish as Blue Grass (at least from my point of view).

So yeah we went with the person who had done more legwork.

Thanks for explaining. Now I understand why. :D

Next Skinning Contest, I'll be better. Sorry about the posts before, it was just me in bad mood after losing.

ps. Someone agree with me, lol. At least I was thought of..lol :P Moving on.... :)

For what's it worth, I don't see what is wrong with asking why one hasn't won. I see it simply as being curious and a will to improve one's skills. You can't improve if you don't know what you did wrong. Nothing to do with being a sore loser.

i think it's more about the way he asked: "who thinks honeycomb doesnt deserve to win? ", really? :P

But yeah, i agree that it's good to know why you didnt win so you can improve (Y)
