Default ROTM 2012 Rules

CF is in no way condoning illegal actions that may result from people trying to take pictures.

Nominees, get involved and get some good pictures!!!


Nominations will run until the 15th of the month at midnight central time, unless noted. Then the voting and campaigning for your favorite ride and CF personality begins.

1) Eligibility
a) To be eligible a member must have a photo album. This is to ensure pictures end up in the voting thread, so that the casual user can know who he is voting for.
b) 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.
c) No one car can win ROTM twice in the same year regardless of category, 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 category twice in a row with the same car. This means that bi-annual categories can be won a maximum of once per year by a single car, and that annual categories can be won a max of once every other year by the same car.
d) You must own the car when you accept the nomination into the running for ROTM. Pictures submitted must accurrately represent the condition of your car when you accept the nomination for ROTM. I.E. if your car is wrecked, then a picture of it wrecked will be used.


2) Nominations
a) In any given month, each user will have 2 nominations. You can give only a single first nomination and you have the ability to second 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.
b) Nominations will take place during the first two weeks of the ROTM month. (i.e., if we are doing March ROTM, nominations will start on March 1st and run for 2 weeks).


3) Once Nom'ed
a) 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 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.


4) Voting
a) A new thread will be created for voting for ROTM, it will include a Poll in order to vote with. The CF members will vote for who they like the best, be it either personality, looks of the car, or whatever persuades them to vote the way they do.
b) The voting thread will be named similar to the nominations thread, i.e. "Vote for "Month" ROTM - "Gen".
c) As a nominee in running for ROTM, feel free to post additional pictures, modifications, a story of how you conceived your second child in the car, or whatever you would like in order to sway voters your way. But do not hog/clog up the thread or post will be deleted. If you are going to add additional material it is suggested that you add it all in one post.
d) Voting will run from the time the voting thread is created until the last day of the month at midnight central time. At that time the nominee with the most votes will be declared the ROTM winner by a CF moderator.
