With the endless stream of criticism from all sides, it doesn't surprise me if Szczuldo loses motivation. Seriously, people here act like spoiled brats.

BTW, plenty of contributors to this thread have not, for example those volunteering to help and submitting design suggestions.

I think somebody should make a pool with the several design options, as pren described. Then we can vote and compromise on buying a certain amount, to have an initial order. Decide a manufacturer and make the order. Who makes the pool and put together all the designs?

Kind of reminds me of how my 25th high school reunion was destroyed.

I'd like a kit, but is anyone still working on this?

I'm out!
Oh, wait....I was never in.

So I am IN.
...so that I can declare I am out!

I think that maybe if a WW kit were available, I would buy one. But I am not interested in haggling over color schemes, and waiting. Maybe a lot of people feel that way. Maybe whoever is the sponsor of the forum could set up a kit buy. But I know from past experience on similar schemes that there will never be a clear consenseless of opinion on exactly what to do from the inmates of the asylum.

So true. Maybe a smaller item like socks or gloves would be better, less dependent on design/color perfection.

Opening a pool for choosing the new design would be a nice beginning.

I'm still going to be interested when this is finalized. I just hope I happen to check this thread again during the time the kits are available.

Someone needs to just take ownership, finalize the design, find a manufacturer and post up when its done. Its a kit, it doesn't have to be this complicated. It doesn't have to be perfect it just has to fit and look decent. This isn't Project Runway.

Use Rapha for the kit and I'm sure the interest will increase on WW. :mrgreen:


On a serious note, I am in for the kit. I'm not picky about the particulars. Pick a kit that is price competitive. Use the WW logo. Use the WW theme colors. Don't make it too busy. Done.

It's over folks. Anyone who would attempt to run with this train wreck is insane. Apologies to the OP. I appreciate what you were trying to do.
