What do you feel when your design is eliminated?

It's really bad when some takes your concept, does a better job and gets a better rating. That stings.

I like Hoffmeyer's designs as well!

I like Hoffmeyer's design too!

its not so much being eliminated, its when i go out of my way to write a little about my design, having spent a substantial amount of time making it, and they just completely ignore it. I ask if theres any improvements I can make, nope. Not interested. Really irritating!

as disappointed but that's the contest and for me it was a challenge that could make me more evolved
