But we would love to see lots more votes too, it only takes a second to cast it.
And don't forget that our entrants would love your feedback so please feel free to comment here.
I've voted, but it was a difficult choice. All the entries are really excellent.

3 Days Down, 4 To Go
Who wants to be our 40th voter. Now's your chance.
And big thanks to everyone who has gone beforehand and already voted :thumbsup:
Of course feel free to comment here.
So who was No.40? Will we ever know :D
Tough call for me, but I voted. It seems at least one other person has made their decision too bringing things up to 41. Not bad. It will be interesting to see how things play out over the next few days.
-Matt
Well Matt is No.40 &dance
Next target 50. Come on guys, spare us a few minutes and have a vote. It will most certainly be appreciated :thumbsup:
Dave
I voted. :thumbsup:
Guillaume.
Voted! ;)
I already voted the first day it was possible :P and I didn't vote for myself.
How come I can't see the results of the poll?
It's set like that so we don't know who will win until the results are published

Oh no... the honor of #40 goes to someone else. I pulled 41 with my vote I think. Either way though, it's good to see people are voting. People put some good effort into these villages, and this is just one way to show them some support.
Speaking of support, the total number of votes just hit 50!
Can we make it 60 now?

(emphasis added)
Now that's what I mean about showing support. Though it wasn't a rule (as far as I can remember) that you had to vote for someone other than yourself, it's cool to see people are actually doing it.
-Matt
^ Can't be! I voted minutes after Tooheys message. If I'm not number 40 I must be number 41 :D :D
There you go Dave, I think we just found our number 40!
But for who I vote will remain a mystery...
All I can tell is that it took me several days before I finally decided which city I liked the most :thumbsup:
Quite the bit of activity in the polling station today ;D
Lots of extras votes - thanks to all who have cast theirs :thumbsup:
Now for the rest of you, here is your chance to cast yours.
All you have to do is scroll to the top of the page and make your choice. that's the easy part ;)
the hard part is deciding which one to choose :D
&Thk/( if only we had the same number of votes as views of this thread :D
I also want to add my thanks for your support of the competition folks :thumbsup:

We probably would, if you could vote more than once. :P
It was close, but I voted for my favorite...
4 Days Down, 3 To Go
Who wants to be our Next voter. Now's your chance.
And big thanks to everyone who has gone beforehand and already voted :thumbsup:
Of course feel free to comment here.
Well we have passed the halfway mark and it's great to see the number of votes so far :thumbsup:
Should I give you a progress score :-\ I think not :P Other than to say that the top 3 are not yet set in concrete. So if you have a favourite but haven't as yet voted, you still have a few days to go.
Thanks for all who have commented. The prevailing comment was that it's a close field and picking a favourite
is tough. I think that in itself shows the effort put into the villages by the entrant's. &apls
Cheers
Dave
I voted some days ago. It was really a hard choice. In fact, I had three favorites - but only one voice. But I noticed that there were much more villages that look rather than small towns. This was already criticised (is that word right? - oh my english is bad!) in the comp at simforum. But the villages that look like they should are all very well done here.
5 Days Down, 2 To Go

Well the clock is ticking with a little under 18 hours to go.

I did my voting earlier this week. It's been a pleasure to enter this competition, as it gave me a chance to build a city with a purpose.
Well the clock is ticking and only a few hours to go.
If you haven't voted,

~ Dan
The winning entries have today made the move over to the Winners Showcase, their new home &apls.
I hope you will will be all pleased to know that there will be a second comp in Feb 2010 and hopefully many more thereafter.
If you have any suggestions as to how this comp can be improved going forward, please feel free to comment in the general discussion thread. Your constructive feedback will be appreciated :thumbsup:
Also, the current entries will stay where they are for a month or so then moved into the archives (which are accessible to everyone). We haven't determined a time yet but they will be removed completely between 6-12mths. We will give you plenty of notice before this happens, so you can save them elsewhere if you wish.
As for the poll results, the aim of the comp was to find the top 3 entries. We never intended to release the entire poll. I understand that some people would like to see the end results, others wouldn't. As per most major polls on this site, we will only be releasing publicly the names of the winners. However, if any of the entrants wish to know how they finished, feel free to PM me or any of the team and we will let you know.
Dave
Congratulations to the well deserved winner, Fabian93! The region overview pic made it for me, in the final voting. It's just breathtaking. Magnificent, Fabian! &apls &apls
And my deepest respect to all contesters: a really high standard is shown, and from a personal point of view, I have appreciaded and viewed all villages with amazement . It's clearly to me that all you guys have put a lot of effort into it! Without all of these great contenders, no contest. Simply as that.
Finally I will like to thank the staff - the usual suspects - for creating this event. Can't wait for the next competition! Thanx guys! &apls
hey wheres my entry!? &mmm
Hi all
In anticipation of Comp No.2 all official entries in the Arena have been moved to the Archives today. The entrants' preparation threads have been kept open (these contain the official entries also) and can be used again for the next comp if you participate. Anything in the archives will be cleared after 6mths.
We are hoping to have the next comp up and running early February and look forward to your participation.
More to come soon.
Dave
VOTING FOR COMP 2 IS NOW OPEN

I voted today. All are very good entries. Each one has a perspective or quality that makes it a contender. Good Luck to all.
Threw mine in there too. There were some good entries this time around. It's difficult to work around just a building or two when there's so much more you might want to show. The plaza designs for the large cathedral were impressive in their variety too.

Fabian :)
Congratulations, Fabian! Two in a row is something to celebrate. &apls
