khaled Posted September 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 Baton Rouge used renders from the Paris 2012 bid. Also I shall deduct 2 votes due to its constant delays on the deadline which is Sunday 26th September 2014 4:00PM GMT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really expect him to make renders? What a joke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that there should be penalties for it being late, but taking off point for using renders from Paris 2012 it a bit extreme. I chose those renders because they illustrated best my vision for the venues and I did not have a lot of time to really make my own art (given I was already pushing back the deadline). Let's also not forget that most people here did not make their own renders and found various graphics to do the same as I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaled Posted September 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 No, I'm not deducting points due to renders taken from the Paris 2012 books, I'm deducting them due to the constant delays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phandrosis Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 At least for the final round, but preferably for all of the following rounds, it would be p cool if we weren't able to see the results so it was more of a surprise when the announcements of elimination come around *would be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will votes also be deducted for other bid books that were late? In all technicality the due date we just pushed back to Tuesday or going by your earlier comment the 26th. Both my books were in by then. So yes, I agree that a vote or two should be deducted, but I also hope the same will be done to other bid books that were also late or not completed. Even though I had the due date pushed back I still turned in a finished and final product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaled Posted September 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 Well, I know Ottawa came late, so I will deduct 1 vote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.bernham Posted September 27, 2014 Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 Well, I know Ottawa came late, so I will deduct 1 vote. But mine gets two? I still turned it in on the deadline extensions. Lets keep in mind that the first extension was asked by multiple people, not just myself, I only asked for a few towards the beginning of the week.

woohooitsme83 Posted September 27, 2014 Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 How about for every day I do not submit the complete bid book, Ottawa get's a deduction of 1 point starting from today/tomorrow. Does that seem fair enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khaled Posted September 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 Ok, I'll deduct 1 vote, but, if that happens, then Ottawa will tie with Mexico last, meaning we'll have to do a runoff between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
