And the whole voting process has been a complete fiasco.
Thanks for your constructive feedback, Tarquin. I'll take it into account the next time I organize something like this.
There wasn't a problem with the voting process. The problem was the lack of a qualification stage where each entrant was judged as to whether or not it meets the brief. Thus the vote was uneven. It was likely that many voters had no understanding that some logos had technical problems and merely voted of symbolism or aesthetics. While others of us made a more suitability-based judgement. The winner doesn't, IMO, comply with the design brief, and without significant revision to make it comply to the brief it should not have made it to the voting starting line.
