The Springleap.com voting system very seldom gives anything away. Sure it’s easy to know which design will become favourites just because of their own design power. But, is it also safe to assume that a design that has lots of positive comments also has a better chance of winning?
If I were to pick my top 3 designs purely on what the popular vote has been from the community…this is how the standings would probably look so far.
Well if popular vote is determined by how many comments any one design receives, then without doubt SFD’sMakaraba King would be top of the pile. This design has 3 full pages of comments thus far…and it’s continuouslygrowing. It is also a design that looks good and has tons of potential to take the win. However, there are a few comments that are negative. I think my comment was also slightly negative truth to tell. I said,” I digz the idea, it just seems slightly incomplete…like something critical is missing. Maybe it’s the card shape to encapsulate the image thats missing.”
So perhaps not all feedback that makes up SFD’s comments are good!
If the number of comments is related to a win this fellow could well be our next winner.
Football fever in South Africa still seems to be building up steam. While there is the odd initiative or two knocking around promoting the World Cup, I still feel that there is a long way to go until locals are fully in the football groove. What is happening, why is there such a mellow mood in the build up to one of the most prestigious events on the sporting calendar.
This morning I was surprised to see a small effort done by an unknown artist throughout Sea Point. Scrawled everywhere where simplistic little chalk signs showing Love = football (heart = football pic).
While all the major companies and sponsors are already doing their thing promoting the event there is still lots to be done on the local football fan side. I’ve seen only a handful of people actually walking around wearing 2010 World Cup attire….very few indeed.
This is why I was actually a bit surprised to see these chalk signs all over the place. It’s not much, don’t get me wrong…it’s just a simplelove = football sign, but it really gives me hope that more people will start to get into the football frame of mind.
What I want to know now is who is responsible?
