IF YOU ARE NEW TO ROTM, THEN PLEASE READ THESE RULES BELOW SO YOU DON'T ASK A QUESTION THAT'S ANSWERED HERE.

For the first time here on CF, it's 5th Gen ROTM. This is another milestone right here on CF folks, so go look over the albums or the 5th Gen section and lets get some of the newest generation up for the running.

Nominations are open for the November 2009 ROTM. We are going to run this until October 15th at midnight central time, unless we need more time for more nom's. Then we start the fun part, the voting and campaigning for your favorite ride and CF personallity.


Remember the rules before you nom and accept.


The first order of business is to set up some hard fast rules. I will be monitoring the nominations threads very closely to avoid any confusion upon voting.

Eligibility

To be eligible a member must have a photo album. This is to ensure pics end up in the voting thread, so that the casual user can know who he is voting for. Anyone being nominated must also be an active member. This means he or she must have had at least 5 posts in the previous month. No one car can win ROTM twice in the same year regardless of catagory, but, if you happen to have more than one car, you can win once with each car. Also, a member cannot win the same ROTM catagory twice in a row with the same car. This means that bi-annual catagories can be won a maximum of once per year by a single car, and that annual catagories can be won a max of once every other year by the same car.

Nominations

• Timmy nominates camarobob for ROTM
• Jimmy 2nd's the nomination for camarobob
• camarobob sees that he has been nominated twice and accepts his nomination thus ensuring his spot on the ballot.

In any given month, each user will have 2 nominations. You can give only a single first nomination andyouhave the ability tosecond someone else's first nomination, you cannot second your own first nomination. You cannot nominate yourself. Both of your nominations can be used to second previous nominations.

Nominations will take place during the first week and a half of the month PRIOR to the month of interest (ie, if we are doing march ROTM, nominations will start on Feb 1st and run for 2 weeks).

Because we are a reletivelysmall community right now the rules may be fudged somewhat in the interest of filling the ballot. However, if nominee #6 fulfills more of the requirements than nominee #3 (if for instance #3 did not accept his nomination) then #6 will win the ballot slot. If you are nominated without all of the requirements and decide to make the necessary updates be sure to PM me (or the moderator overseeing the current ROTM nominations thread) that the updates have been done. This way, if the entry comes down to a time stamp, we will be able to make a fair call as to who gets into the competition.

Once Nom'ed
Most of the time nominations will not take up the entire two weeks. Once a member is nominated it is his or her responsibility to PM me (or whoever is looking after ROTM at the time) with a URL to the picture they want used during voting (max 800x800 pix), and the URL of his or her photo gallery, as well as (optional) a brief description of the car to appear below the picture. The message can include mods, times, resto, or originality information. Do not waste your time making a long message because there are size constrictions and an overly long message will be reduced in size until it is illegible anyways.

 

I got to nom rdot's dad right off the bat, I love the orange and black, just what I would get more than likely. So I nom chevelleman.

 

ill second chevelleman...sick lookin ride

 

Well thank you guys, I graciously accept.
Just to get the particulars straight, the stripes are actually CGM (Cyber Grey Metallic)... the Black ones are a matte finish, (non metallic).... and don't quite pop like the CGM.

 

Well I officially appoligize for calling them black. But you still need some competition!

 

I nominate DATMAN, new member with a sharp looking 5th gen, he will be on with pics soon I'm sure....

 

I'll second for DATMAN

 

Camaro Freaks,

Thank you for the nomination. I'm in. Check out my 5th Gen in the photo gallery. Dat Man's windows so dark you need a flashlight to see him. Murdered Out. Top of the line. Saving for Hennessey upgrade. HPE 475, no. HPE 550, no. HPE 600 or 650, keep going. HPE 700, 800, or 1000 is the question. I'll use my winnings from ROTM towards upgrade. LOL

May the best Gen 5 win. Thanks again for the opp.

 

Winnings? How do you spend a pat on the back? This is gonna be a tough race. Is there even a third one on these forums?

 

Looks like you should have some best in show winnings with dat 69. Nice ride.
