make a good looking car and someone from the SR weekly will probably choose it, if it looks good enough.Ruffkid wrote:Yo! Yo! people how can i upload my cars to the showroom weekly
Correction - make a car that appeals to THEIR taste.. and it might be picked, if you're so lucky as to have your car seen by them..danyutz wrote:make a good looking car and someone from the SR weekly will probably choose it, if it looks good enough.
Excuse me? We have a few of us deciding very hard on 2 cars. It's not that easy choosing 2 cars to be featured. ALL of us need to agree on 2 cars and we all have different taste.Summ wrote:Correction - make a car that appeals to THEIR taste.. and it might be picked, if you're so lucky as to have your car seen by them..danyutz wrote:make a good looking car and someone from the SR weekly will probably choose it, if it looks good enough.
believe me, we are watching all the cars, we're not choosing from the tops or the faved ones. if you wonder why aren't you one of the SRw users, that's maybe your cars aren't good enough, try harder , you don't see any of our cars in there, although ahmad did a great replica, still he is not in the SRw. of course it's by our taste, because we choose the cars and we always choose none artistic, but classics.Summ wrote:Correction - make a car that appeals to THEIR taste.. and it might be picked, if you're so lucky as to have your car seen by them..danyutz wrote:make a good looking car and someone from the SR weekly will probably choose it, if it looks good enough.
. By saying this, you automatically say there is absolutely no statistical basis on which you make your decisions, which leaves only subjective choice. If you like it, collectively, it gets featured. Else it does not. YOU. No-one else. So please.. tell me again.. what's wrong with my statement? I'll pull the 'If you're so lucky to have it seen by them' statement back, if that's what will float your boat.. but that's about it..danyutz wrote:we're not choosing from the tops or the faved ones
then why are you trying to make a point here, if you don't care, if you don't want to try harder .. u back off, make room for the guys who want to and try to show what they got. I don't even know why am I answering your questions, or trying to make my point.Summ wrote:I couldn't care less about being featured, so believe me when I say that not being picked doesn't hurt my feelings the least.. I don't care about trying harder.. what am I, making cars after people's taste now?
you are damn right, but it's a WE, not just meSumm wrote:If you like it, collectively, it gets featured. Else it does not.
First off.. give me one good reason why I should make cars to please others than myself. One. Just one good reason. One reason why I should care about what you think (collective you - seems I need to clarify that to you (danyutz) every time I state a 'you', as you don't appear to get it out of context).danyutz wrote:then why are you trying to make a point here, if you don't care, if you don't want to try harder .. u back off, make room for the guys who want to and try to show what they got.

Who ever said it was just you? No matter how many on the team selecting the cars it is, it is still just a matter of tastes. I like red, you like blue. If different people were on the team, different cars would be picked. You can't discuss tastes, which makes the whole point of this sr weekly one big charade with zero value. Why? Because the fact that one car makes it in the spotlight over another is just a question of what you people like. You want it? Keep it. I'm not discussing that, nor am I trying to bring the thing down. My entire point was.. and still is.. that what a 'good car' is, is a subjective matter and a question of group-tendencies. It was a heads up to the people attempting to get the spotlight that there is no right or wrong, nor any checklist of things that should be or not be on the car in order for it to pass. It's just a question of whether a selected few (by which criteria are you judges? what makes your taste better than anybody else's? What are you, designers? Artists? Do you have any kind of degree that makes your voice in the matter worth anything? Do you have any kind of theoretical knowledge on aesthetics and design on which to base your criticism other than "I like this"?) like it or not.

Try to read my last post. The explanation is in there. If it's too hard for you to comprehend, fetch someone, who understands english - or logic - better than you.. that might help.danyutz wrote:I'm sitting and asking myself why the heck did you even replied the thread after all;
A little thin, isn't it? This is your second attempt in two posts at implying I should be so pathetic as not being worth wasting your breath on, when in reality you're the pathetic one, using stereotypical dismissive tactics to avoid confrontation and still look like the bigger guy in the eyes of all the others, who either don't have the ability or the wish to think things through. You've run out of proper, defendable arguments on which to build an offense and you're firing loose shots, at which point the debate loses interest; for me, at least, because it contains absolutely no intellectual value.danyutz wrote:from your first post you sounded like some wheels on your head are malfunctioning, some big question marks raised above you head
Redundant. We've been over this.danyutz wrote:.. and now you say that you don't care.. you just said you don't care to make cars to please other users.
Why should I? For what it's worth, it fulfils its purpose. It entertains people on this forum. Up to them, if they have the standards they have. It's trivial at this point, but to reiterate once again, I merely wanted to bring to their attention that to get in the spotlight, they just needed to make cars the 'selection committee' - or whatever you define yourselves - likes. My feelings about the whole thing were never meant to get out, and they only did, because you and your buddy jumped at me for stating the truth in a way you didn't appreciate.. or simply because you didn't think my words through. Either way, you provoked this.danyutz wrote:If you think it's a charade, why not PM Bojan with it and suggest anything else?
