Administrator with a large ban hammer !
I have been watching the voting for MOTM and enjoy the friendly comments encouraging all to participate. I am still a newbie here but was fortunate enough to have my car nominated by a member who is not part of what I would call the "Usual Suspects",that is the same few who nominate and second most of the contestants. Maybe this is because no one else steps up. I would like to propose a twist to the contest that would pit like car against each other. Say 1 month it could be running project cars, then the next month daily driven cars, or highly modified cars like the past 2 winners, or stock appearing cars, you get the idea. The class for the following months contest would be announced early enough to let all members select contestants and post to admin. through PM's. At the start of the new contest the admin. would post the contestants based on no. of entries proposed. If more than 3 cars are up the cars w/ most nominations would be selected. The class of vehicle would rotate month to month to let all cars, be they show pieces or beaters or original cars, A,B,C,E,Late model,or whatever, see some additional exposure. Just my 2 cents, but may be worth discussion.

I like the part about different things each month. I don't think that we should divide it by Body type.
But one problem with these ideas, is, lets say, for example, March is project car month. Then a guy joins in July with a project car. His car will be left out for the rest of the year just because he didn't join at the right time.

I think it would be a good thing to change things up a bit......maybe the body class match ups could be cool ("a" bodies one month, "b" bodies the next, etc....). What ever happens it will still be fun.

I would like to see nominator's post a picture of the car they are nominating at least...or give a link to their album where the pictures can be viewed...just makes it easier for someone to second the nomination....

What about leaving it as a forum announcement either on the main page, or on the MotM page. I know when we would have a contest at our HT forums, we would have the announcement right on the main forum page. and the sub pages.
