And I am quite sure "smart" people from the competition have done the same. Maybe also more Designer users you don't even know off. If you wanted to do really bad, you could create for every vote a new account. Every time you click on vote there is an option to create a new account. Don't blame me for finding the plotholes.LOL.

Staff Patrick Connor Posted April 16, 2018 Staff Share Posted April 16, 2018 It seems Microsoft may be moving the goalposts (but we're not worried). I understand that the vote is now staying open until just before the Microsoft Build 2018 event in Early May....

Mithferion Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Designer is winning by a huge margin. I don't think that will change in the remaining hours. Best regards!

MoreK Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 This was posted to the Windows Developer mailing list: "There's been such enthusiasm and it's such a tight race, that we've extended the voting to May 5th." I would guess that, in other words, they have received very low number of votes in some categories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joschi Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I also got the same mail from microsoft! That is so low! I'm personally not a fan of changing rules so quickly. To me this is really a low action from microsoft to extend the voting. I personally understand, if microsoft wants to extend the voting, but this should be a serious competition. This is not some kind of a drawing contest for 10 year olds, where rules are getting changed every time just to satisfy everyone! I should calm down....the world has more severe problems than this Alfred and Arba 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I suppose this gives Affinity more time to push social media awareness, and other forms of letting people know about this. I've already contacted everyone I could to get them to vote.
