VICTORY FOR THE RED HERO SCARF!

Hi everyone, just a heads up about how we'll be counting the votes:

There's no easy way for us to limit the scarf voting to only Silver Heroes. What we can do, however, is discard votes by accounts that were created after a certain date. This should be enough to prevent most of the vote "rigging" that people are worried about.

That said, we'll be disregarding all votes by accounts that were created after the 2nd Mini Beta ended, and disregarding Scarf votes by accounts that were created after the 2nd OBT ended. Under those rules, the current vote count looks like this:

Flag:
Silver (75) (17 ahead!)
Black (58)
Blue (30) (28 behind):
Red (28)
Gold (23)
Purple (20)
Green (10)
Bronze (0)

Scarf:
Red (67) (15 ahead!)
Black (52)
Silver (32) (20 behind):
Gold (28)
Purple (18)
Blue (13)
Green (11)
Bronze (3)

I'd also like to note that applying the above rules really only disqualified a small number of votes, and that the majority of voters are players who registered during the 1st Open Beta, so it really doesn't seem like anyone is making that much of an effort to rig the voting.

I'll post the final results when the voting ends in roughly 2 more hours.

Thanks everyone!

I don't suspect anyone will be mustering 16 votes for Black Scarf, so let's celebrate early (or laugh if someone proves me wrong)!

Thanks to everyone that made their votes heard. A vote against Red was essentially a vote for Black, what with the huge gap between 2nd and 3rd place for both items.

See you on the battlefield.

Spoiler:

Frankly, the choice is ridiculous, first we should have silver flag, second we should have a choice of one of the choices for our scarf, not a set color for the scarf no matter what, third, WTF is with people, black scarf and flag? How damn generic can you get? Even red is FAR too commonly used! I want something unique damn it!

Too bad its late to choose anything else, black got too much votes already so silver and red is probably the best choice if you don't want black

lol, we out here grindan and black flaggan

Post #134 on the official voting thread by me:

Flag color: Metallic blue
Scarf color: Metallic purple

That's not us, last time I checked.

Thanks for spreading the word, Fenix. We can't have our mecha musumes looking like that.

That's kinda depressing, aside from me only four other people voted for the flag to have a metallic green colour. Really people? Black? Are most of the players emo or something!?

Indeed. Agreed.

You know to be honest, I'm not against the whole black theme but the problem with doing anything in black is that it's horridly unoriginal and bland at best. Emo or not is beside the point. How many people out on the street where black consistently? Almost no one. But again I've been against many a community's decision cause I've not followed the crowd and been a little boy/girl who can't stand anything else but to be a follower. I'm gonna stop here cause I'm starting to sound a little preachy.

Yeah I know, I prefer to wear darker colours myself just never as one solid outfit, only went with emo since I wanted something be used as a way to label all the people who seemed determined to have their bots decorated as a walking shadow, it was either that or goth that came to mind at the time.

It's just trolls, not emos. They don't want the star ranks to have nice scarves.

Sadly, that's true.. I want nice things but I don't want people to have nice things when I can't

welcome to the world we live in. =]

I did a count in the votes and have to say, its very suspicious that there are many people with exactly the same vote.

I mean, i have nothing against the colors but find it very weird those are so popular when we haven't seen how they look yet.

Bunch of people probably made multiple accounts.

Oh well. Good thing I like the color black.

i support black on black

The flag? I wouldn't mind some BLACK FLAGGAN while I'm OUT HERE GRINDAN, but the scarf has to be something else.

I see the trolls are hard at work. =]

already voted for silver flag red metal scarf (btw I"ll just take the flag)

i already voted silver on both (was the 4th voter or something)

wouldnt mind black for scarf though.. matches what i plan on skinning laz-chan with...

as for flag.. please vote silver

I was going to put up some pictures of the metallic colored bots in-game D: (Yes, quite a few of the colors already exist in game)

Edit: Posted!

i wonder why they not let us choose each us our self? they can just make it some kind of usable item and let us pick the colour of flag/scarf when we use it... just like ouka dayu promo item let us pick goin make it accecories or promo item

I dont realy care for red most of my units are black, white, blue, and green. i dont want a red scarf... if that happens it wont go with anything.

Not everyone runs Black on everything. For those that don't, Black is an absolutely terrible color, especially for a reward like a scarf. We only get one, so for that one bot that we get to put it on, we want it to at least look good... not generic and trying to blend in.

This is what we Silver Flag / Red Hero Scarf supporters are fighting for. For now, it looks like we've won. We shall see.

Better idea, vote for what you want and not what someone tells you to vote.

Voting has long since reached the point where the only viable choices are Black Flag vs. Silver Flag and Black Scarf vs. Red Scarf.

I originally wanted Blue Flag and Gold Scarf. Neither stands a chance. I am not wrong in telling others the only options that are still worth voting for.

If you want to vote for something else, feel free to throw away your vote. That is the stark reality of the situation, but you're welcome to ignore it.

They r not skinable so wut evah
