FAQ Entry #386

This is a respond to a previously asked question about the A' Design Award and Competition. The full list of frequently asked questions can be accessed here.

#386: I thought, I could take part at the promo. I compared the ticket-prices and I am lost. With promo it is X Euro, normal price is also X Euro what am I missing? I have a preliminary score of 9 and would like to buy a pro nomination ticket.

This happens because our discounts are not cumulative and you have already a discount applied to your entry fee which is equal or greater than the promotion. You indicated that your design got a really high score (9), and that is most likely why you have a discount already applied on your fee; if you calculate the nomination fee from a different computer without getting logged-in you would notice that the fee is actually higher, and your entry is already getting a discount applied to it; and that is the reason you do not see a promotion discount because the applied discount is already equal or greater than the promotion discount.
