Which whould you choose?

[DESTROYER123]

Hey people!
A question (maybe 100% stupid or just nonsense) is writen below to give me an "image" of people's mind.

If you have to save one of the following and get the other one destroyed, which would you choose?
Save art (e.g. music) or sports?

Please be short and simple.

Thanks



Art (14): GreeN!X, Solu9, Heinvers, Ironside, Chaosy, JamesxcX, Footman16, Orcnet, genin32, Keiji, Dr Super Good, Paliouras, Tank-Commander, Rheiko

Sports (1): Dalvengyr


Note

When I say sports I exclude self excercises like jogging or going to the gym to lift some weight.

When I say art I exclude games.

Dance is out of this.

 

[GreeN!X]

I'd rather save art. Because refer to sig.

 

[Solu9]

Art can make you reflect, can provoke, can debate. (Keep)

Sport is money driven and makes people beat each other up. ("Destroy")

 

[DESTROYER123]

GreeN!X, wow I just checked your signature! Nice stuff you got! Keep it up!
Btw thanks for your answer.

Solu9, also thanks for your answer though I don't mean sports about the way the have evolved (money and all of this corrupted bussines). However you spoke the truth.

 

[Heinvers]

I'd personally opt for art. Besides I'm inclined towards it

 

[DESTROYER123]

Heinvers, nice!
Thanks for the answer!

 

[Footman16]

I would say sport because the dead don't do art.

 

[Ironside]

I'd keep art and destroy sport, definitely.

 

[Footman16]

Well I'd like something clarified, would you call all forms of exercise a sport, including walking or just your typical definition because if it's the typical definition then I'd choose art every time.

 

[Paliouras]

As footman16 said already.Will sports destroy only competitive sports like basketball/football or everything that is included in gymnastics?

 

[Solu9]

I assume the definition of sport here is physical acts done on a competitive level.

 

[DESTROYER123]

When I say sports I exclude ecxescises (at least the basic) like joking and going to gym.
When I say sports I mean all the team sports as well as sports like box, taw kwo do (don't know how is writen ). Not joking or some simple self excercises.
Solu9 answers it all above.

Ironside, thanks for the answer!

Footman16, waiting for your answer.

 

[Chaosy]

I'd save sports, not because I care a lot about sports (anymore) myself but because I value it WAY more than art and music.


edit: on a second thought, I'd save art. Else we wouldn't have computer games.

 

[Footman16]

Well it all depends upon your definition of "art". I for one perceive dancing as an art form but it also a sport, technically so I'm still a little weary of how to answer this.

I would be inclined to say art but without a definitive definition I can't really say but for now put me down for art.

 

[Solu9]

I'd save sports, not because I care a lot about sports (anymore) myself but because I value it WAY more than art and music.

You bring up a good point.
When answering remember that art is not just paintings and sculptures.
It's also music, animating, drawing, games, movies, grafitti and so on.

 

[Paliouras]

Then art is a no brainer for me.I mean you can still exercise.And sports could be created from scratch right?

 

[DESTROYER123]

Actually, games are excluded from the art I am saying.
I know that games have all those textures, soundtracks and stuff but as a whole I exclude them form art as I excluded joking and self-exercises.

Chaosy, should I keep art or sports?

Footman16, still waiting for your answer. Also I exclude dance.

Paliouras, so you say sports?

 

[Solu9]

Games can be showing an expression just as much as a painting can. It has nothing to do with the texture or animation (which are art on their own account).
Granted a lot of games are not made from an artistic perspective (CoD, Warcraft, LoL etc.)
but games like Limbo, Journey, Flower are.

But of course it's your call to where to draw the line. It's your thread after all.

 

[DESTROYER123]

Creating games is an art indeed.
Playing games is not.
Not everyone can create games.
Yet everyone can play a little song on the piano or draw a picture.
With years of training everyone can be an average musician or a painter.
However a game designer is most of the times a life job, not a hobby.
Every average person can arrange with his/her friends a football/voleyball/whateverball match.
Every average person can arrange a small music concert in a friend or his house with other friends.
However no average person can arrange a game designing with his/her friends.

And know someone will say:
"So playing games isn't art. So listening to music is also not art."
"Indeed. However an average person can interact with art and can also create it. An average person can play a game yet he can't create it.".

Solu9, you got some strong point in your post, however I still won't include games...

 

[Chaosy]

art.

 

[JamesxcX]

Art(pop)

 

[Footman16]

but for now put me down for art.

There's my answer.

 

[Orcnet]

Art is a preservation(expression) of human reasoning, hence its other definition as art is logic. Sports on the other hand, is a way of entertainment that let's you expose your body on fitting exercise and somehow game-value(or nowadays, a competition). I would rather choose art.

 

[DESTROYER123]

Wow!
Score got 8-0!
Guess art has better means than sports for the human.
But who knows.
Thread is still open.

Chaosy, thanks for your answer!

JamesxcX, also thanks!

Footman16, good. I just wanted to make sure of it .

Orcnet, well stated. Thanks.

 

[A Void]

I'd save art. Art is created trough time and dedication to it. Sport is just a simple fraction of one's body movement and physic capabilities of the person. I value Art much more than Sport. Art can be done by those who have the capabilities to do it. Sport can be done by most with concerning health and physic strength. I vote for ART.

 

[Celaquil]

There's only two things that never turn boring: Art and intoxication.
- Sorry sports, I chose art.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Destroy sports and save arts, this is almost unfair!

 

[Paliouras]

Paliouras, so you say sports?

Arts.

 

[DESTROYER123]

12-0!

genin32, you got your point. Thanks for the answer!

Keiji, intoxication...Yeah...Thanks for the answer!

Dr Super Good, that last word, say it all. Thanks for your answer too!

Paliouras, good. Sorry for my misunderstand. Thanks!

 

[Heinvers]

Intoxication, well a couple of tequilas could do that to you art as I stated earlier.

 

[Kazeon]

now give it 12-1 because I definitedly choose to save sport, 80% of my life I have dedicated it for sport.. So let's burn art and save sport!!

 

[DESTROYER123]

Dalvengyr, thanks for the answer! Really encouraging for those who want to vote sports.

 

[Tank-Commander]

Save art, something I'd consider much more important, both as something that historically lasts and can be significantly more personal than sports (imo).

 

[DESTROYER123]

Tank-Commander, yup. A band's song last longer than a team's match. Thanks!

 

[Kazeon]

hey! this is not fair!! 13 - 1 ??

@Destroyer:
you are asking this not at the right place, man. most people here are wasting more than 75% of their time behind their desktop, doing art like modeling and texturing? That explains why sport is epic losing now.

Creature with no art feeling like me will mostly choose sport I guess But you know what? I love drawing when I was a kid (and good at it of course), but I realized that it is just POINTLESS and TOTALLY NO FUN afterall, so I decided to LEAVE ART and THROW IT FAR AWAY !!

oh god, i wasted so much time.

all those times.. *POOF*

 

[GreeN!X]

Can you elaborate more? What's so unfair about that?

Yeah, Destroyer, make a poll in a sports forum so that sports will win and Dalvengyr here will be happy.

 

[Kazeon]

Yeah, Destroyer, make a poll in a sports forum so that sports will win and Dalvengyr here will be happy.

I didn't mean to be offensive. I just want you to be happy.

 

[Rheiko]

Nyx.. that kawaii face.. *laughs*


i'd prefer arts rather than sports, not that i good at arts but
i'm just too lazy to do a team match and such

and anyway, i think arts is better than sports
because of its variety and the need of creativity to make
just my opinion though

 

[DESTROYER123]

Wow, take it easy people.

Dalvengyr, you might be right. A lot of people here are dedicated to art.
However not all of them. Also art is not only painting and drawing.

Rheiko, thanks for the answer friend!
