Herzog Wolfhammer Gallente Aliastra	Posted - 2010.10.25 03:17:00 - [541] Edited by: Herzog Wolfhammer on 25/10/2010 03:39:05 Originally by: GateScout Originally by: Themanfromdalmontee Lets see, the infamous hot coffee suit....yeah makes complete sense.. I assume you're referring to the Liebeck v. McDonald's case. If so, you should know that the ruling was 100% accurate and appropriate. The award, as determined by a JURY, was a bit insane. It's a mistake to look at the ruling and the award of damages as one. By that's a topic for another thread... Carry on. A jury in the USA - 12 people sucking on sodium flouride and educated by a system that was jacked 100 years ago to churn out morons. America gets funnier every day as the people continue to try using the state and it's corrupt courts as their weapon yet continues to go bankrupt. The screams of lawyers and yuppies as the guys with mohawks kill them for their gasoline will be sweet music. Quote: In the real world, Billions of dollars can be gained or lost for the simple misplacement of a word in a contract. This is the USA in a nutshell: People with pointless shallows lives who get off watching or playing "gotcha games" and seeing a victim squirm. Fred Reed said it best: Quote: As tensions grow in America, as divisions flourish, and the nation leads up to something unseen but ugly, prissy vindictiveness and moral sadism become normal. We have become a gotcha culture, watchful for transgressions meaningless but forbidden, so that we can make the malfeasor squirm. How we enjoy the squirming, the writhing on camera, the heavy punishments inflected for nothing. I can make guesses that sound vaguely plausible. The United States is not a happy country. People waste their lives in meaningless jobs, trapped by the credit card, the mortgage, the student loan. They know they are wasting their lives. Racial anger runs high. Women resent men. Divorce screws up kids. There is the two-hour commute to the cubicle and back to the sterile box in the anonymous subdivision, the lack of influence over their lives, life from paycheck to paycheck. And anger at affirmative action, either because they suffer from it or because they need it. Life is just flat stressful. People get spiteful, mean, like mistreated dogs. They want to make others as miserable as they secretly are themselves. (this is why most of the griefers - the sort who do not even bother to call themselves pirates out of a need to cover their acts - in this game are Americans) So OF COURSE people are going to start talking lawsuit.
Ivan Tesla Minmatar Sebiestor tribe	Posted - 2010.10.25 05:04:00 - [542] Originally by: Chief Picajing Originally by: Ivan Tesla Edited by: Ivan Tesla on 22/10/2010 08:48:08 Just had to add, after looking at the page with the contest rules, it kinda reminds me of the 2001: A Space Odyssey scene on one of the transport ships going to the moon. The guy in the scene, Heywood Floyd, needs to go to the toilet but needs to obey a long list of instructions: Compare :) Starship Contest Rules 2001 rules before relief Though both the end results are somewhat the same :) Now that I have stopped laughing, returned to my chair and dried off the monitor... I'd like to send you a case of beer. That was damn funny. Thats ok, I have enough in the fridge - if you ever wanted to send a plex though I'm more than willing to receive it --------------------------------------------- Francis Wolcott: "I am a sinner that does not expect forgiveness.

Freyya Advanced Planetary Exports Intergalactic Exports Group	Posted - 2010.10.25 08:17:00 - [544] Edited by: Freyya on 25/10/2010 08:23:55 Edited by: Freyya on 25/10/2010 08:23:14 After reading the reply from DA (which is basicly a fck you in civilised words)i can only point out that the rule UNCOLORED LINE ART is unambiguous*. No color means no color. One of the semis is in purple and blue and as such should not have been considdered as a semi. Unshaded is mentioned as a separate issue all together so no they do not mean the same thing. Ohh and anyone who didn't notice; Rules has been changed again to include that you may not use any logos from the sponsors unless they have received specific approval from those sponsors, meaning that anyone with eve and DA logos is disqualified. They also changed the unshaded/uncolored lineart rule to only uncolored to suit their claim of uncolored/unshaded to be the same.

Strom Kryos Gallente	Posted - 2010.10.25 08:27:00 - [545] Originally by: Herzog Wolfhammer Anti USA blah blah Yeah I agree the hot coffee was as stupid as the hot laptop.. just like the idiot that puts his hand in a wood chipper.. but these people live everywhere. What on earth possesed a jury to allow this to pass is beyond me, there are many more example of bad judgement across the world. While there are many ignorant, naive people in every country, this does not depict the average intelligence of mine. Please get off your I hate the USA poduiem. Thanks

wizard87	Posted - 2010.10.25 12:23:00 - [549] When's the winner announced? Hope its the Tornado. Oh and one of the funniest forum Blofeldt morons I've ever spotted here in Elric... "I'm pressing a law suit over an art contest" "oh, well law suit was not the way to go" "But I'm great at smoothing wrinkles out and documenting best practice - I do it for a living...really guys!!1!1eleven!!" "Look, I'll even offer my help to them for free!!" Muppet.
N Ano Caldari Solar Transport	Posted - 2010.10.25 12:28:00 - [550] This thread fails along with everything it concerns. ECM, Eves little genital warts.

Vladimir Norkoff Income Redistribution Service	Posted - 2010.10.25 12:36:00 - [551] Originally by: Herzog Wolfhammer The screams of lawyers and yuppies as the guys with mohawks kill them for their gasoline will be sweet music. LOL.. Yuppies? Did you really use that term? They are about as common in the US as a real mohawk. Herzog, you have a very skewed perspective of America. I'm guessing you don't actually live here. Or if you do, you don't leave the house much. Taxman IX: Risky Venture
Orange Lagomorph	Posted - 2010.10.25 13:55:00 - [552] What? There are yuppies all over the place. These days, 95% of them aren't an obvious fit for the pastel-neckerchief-wearing douchebag stereotype, but they're still yuppies. They're just flying with a covert ops cloaking device.
Istvaan Shogaatsu Caldari Guiding Hand Social Club	Posted - 2010.10.25 14:58:00 - [553] This would be a good time for the CCP marketing guys to throw their hands up and yell "SCREW IT, WE'RE ADDING ALL THE ONES WE LIKE" and dispense prizes accordingly. Major PR boost ;f
Elric Hexx Minmatar Native Freshfood	Posted - 2010.10.25 15:01:00 - [554] Originally by: wizard87 When's the winner announced? Hope its the Tornado.

Elric Hexx Minmatar Native Freshfood	Posted - 2010.10.25 15:07:00 - [555] Edited by: Elric Hexx on 25/10/2010 15:12:52 Edited by: Elric Hexx on 25/10/2010 15:11:45 To those of you who have said "litigation is silly", or my favorite that "AMERICANS ARE sue happy" What do you suggest? I want to hear what you the civilized think we heathens should do? Please give we the machette wielding, religious beliving, hockey mask wearing, gun happy Americans, some alternate direction thats more civilized than requesting our day in court. And I'm not after Millions or a dime (Except court cost, i am not as stupid as I make out), as a matter of fact I dont want to bring them to their knees I just want the rules followed and a plan put in place that this will never happen this way again. Humble me with your wisdom, please whats better Jihad, Deviant Shield, or wanting to be heard by a judge?

It is just bettere to move on. At this point there's nothing we can do ... only CCP can do something if they don't want to be trained in the **** as long with DA. The contest was clearly a fake (one of the most important contest hosted from DA let's say, also for the $$$ of the prizes), but what do you expect on relying on a website like DeviantArt, what do you expect on relying on such unprofessional judges and organizaion ? Bad call from CCP US at chosing DA as a partner. From the CCP point of view, a great marketing idea has turned into a disaster: I bet they are more upset than us. From our point of view is just some time wasted (lots of time for someone) ... but it was a "free to apply" contest so there's nothing we can whine about. Some of us just submitted entries "for fun" like myself ... if you did it with so much effort, I just suggest in the future to choose better the contests you apply in, and therefore to put effort in contests you can really trust.

It's a spaceship drawing contest, 'days in court' doesn't come into it.Stop sulking, go cry on Momma's shoulder, and try to grow up a bit.

Go sit in a dark room and cry to mama, don't sulk, because big picture its just a foolish drawing contest. Great answer.. except that sulking would imply an inability to do anything about it, and as I pointed out a day in court is doing something.. ...and Jesus how kind of you for the holy advice about "just take it! don't complain".. enjoy that time on the cross did you? so next?

What are you a dipsh!t for trusting them to be professional?" Yes I was.. Your totally right. to bad 3800 or so of us had to find that out the hard way, isn't it. and yes lesson learned.
Pai Suree	Posted - 2010.10.25 15:38:00 - [562] Originally by: Lt Angus some of those are too good, we should just say screw ccp take those ships and make a new space mmo I want a steam punk space shooter. Trendy and edgy at the same time. And think of the fun we'd have thinking up interesting retro high tech weapons.
Gnulpie Minmatar Miner Tech	Posted - 2010.10.25 15:57:00 - [563] Originally by: Istvaan Shogaatsu This would be a good time for the CCP marketing guys to throw their hands up and yell "SCREW IT, WE'RE ADDING ALL THE ONES WE LIKE" and dispense prizes accordingly. Major PR boost ;f They can do that anytime they want. The contest didn't say that ONLY the winners ship would be added. It says more or less that AT LEAST the winners ship get added.
Xevan Templar Gallente 7th Batavian Squadron	Posted - 2010.10.25 16:15:00 - [564] Edited by: Xevan Templar on 25/10/2010 16:17:09 Edited by: Xevan Templar on 25/10/2010 16:16:28 Originally by: Cpt Advile How is it over when these people change semi finalists after the contest should have ended Also CCP hasn't made the final pick yet... This is far from over my good friend... mmmm. I just saw this link on dA. I haven't noticed it before but it seems the rules have indeed been changed. Maybe because of this my entries are not falid, however I have never got a notification of it, so I really don't know. This is the link: Changing of rules Still I think it's done with the Contest. A winner will be picked out of the current 15.
Elric Hexx Minmatar Native Freshfood	Posted - 2010.10.25 16:25:00 - [565] So I got the following advice on alternatives to a court date: Accept your fate Grow up and take it, don't cry. What did you expect... *Im gonna add one...from earlier.. DO you live in the real world? You people are EPIC! thats really great advice.. Really this is why I'm an idiot? Thank you, I am certain from your perspective that these are great alternatives, go on with life and let people walk on you, you f\/cking floor mat! I guess I'm just to F\/cking stoopid to agree. Yay me...

Razin The xDEATHx Squadron Legion of xXDEATHXx	Posted - 2010.10.25 16:46:00 - [567] Lots of amusing posts from people angry at someone looking for ways to deal with an unfair situation ITT. Conform much you tools? ...
Elric Hexx Minmatar Native Freshfood	Posted - 2010.10.25 16:50:00 - [568] Originally by: Sister Bobr btw Elric what was your entry ? I did 6, 3 Frigs, 1 Cuiser, a BB, and a salvager (before they announced the Nocturne, I was SOOO **ed when they did too...LOLZ) They were good, not great, not win worthy compared to a lot of the art, by any means. I'm gonna put them up on my EVE links and training site tonight. I'll post a link to give the naysayers something more to snicker at me about. Of course since I hadn't used a 3D app since auto-cad 8 and design-cad, I felt they were cool. Links later, I promise. The thing is I didn't follow the rules**, my 6 drawings were renders not line art, If I had noticed before the contest went to judging I would have changed them. If I had noticed after the judging had started, and all this was being questioned I would have yanked em. I said it before, theres noting in the prize packages I can't afford, except having a ship added to the game. And mine were hardly good enough by comparison.

Elric Hexx Minmatar Native Freshfood	Posted - 2010.10.25 18:15:00 - [570] Zymurgist!!! Took the time to yank my signatures, any word on any word yet? Or are we just a livin in the dark forever? A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recount, they wont do one.
