Nominations for May ROTM-5th gen
Nominate your favorite 5th Gen for May ROTM, now get to it!
Nominations are open for the May 2010 ROTM. We are going to run this until Mayh 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 reletively small 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.
Any person who asks to be nominated in the nomination thread will automatically be disqualified.
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.

the only 5th gen guy I kinda know is ChevelleMan, and I know he won 5th gen ROTM once last year...guess I'm gonna have to watch the 5th gen section a little more to see if there's anybody who's deserving.

holy crap that thing is sweet. i'd second it, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't meet the other requirements. Wham, any input?
Also, I'd like to nominate edog2.
