--- Quote ---1) Do you think it's too early to start a new design contest?
--- End quote ---
No. Our track record suggests the earlier we get started the better.


--- Quote ---2) Are there any changes you would make to the design contest and its rules?
--- End quote ---
Perhaps suggestions for slogans be seperate from the designs. The slogan is rarely linked only to the design itself so mix and matching works well.


--- Quote ---3) What works well with the current process?
--- End quote ---
Discussion and feedback allowing artists to tweak and improve their designs. This is a VITAL part of the process and why we've consistently ended up with top quality tokens.


--- Quote ---4) What bugs you about the current process?
--- End quote ---
The risk that the winning front side and the winning back side won't match each other. You summed it up perfectly in your original post. I wouldn't require entries to have both sides as it may discourage people from putting forward a design if they only have 1 brilliant idea. We'll be able to deal with it if/when it happens.


--- Quote ---The process certainly doesn't need that much changing as we have consistently turned out the best tokens on earth

100% TRUTH
stan2323:
I say we start now.  (track record)
We deal with clashing sides when it happens.
rytel:
Yes! Start the design competition earlier, so the tokens are ready for January 1.
gaffner:
I'm much more likely to convince the boss of the house to get them for me if they are ready for January 1... it would be an awesome Christmas present.

I'm super bummed, because I wanted the 2010 token, but it sold out before I could convince her to give up the cash!!!  :-\
