saltlick... i'm almost positive you're joking but, for those of you that are about ready to second saltlick's self-nomination, i've copied and pasted the rules for BOTM. basically, it is so that there is no confusion and i know many of you will be lazy and not go read the directions unless they are in front of you
j/k... i just think for the first month we might need to have the instructions here too.
SOHC-FOUR motorcycle of the month rules:
1. the SOHC4 motorcycle must be owned by the forum member (we’ll take your word for it)
2. user must be nominated by another member, no self nominations
3. a nomination must be made, seconded and accepted within the allotted timeframe (if you do not accept a seconded nomination by the 15th of the month, you/your bike will not be included in the contest for SOHC4 of the month)
4. please refrain from topics other than motorcycle of the month within these particular threads
5. if you nominate another user that has multiple motorcycles, state which one you would like to nominate
6. the motorcycle must be a Honda SOHC4
HOW IT WORKS:
1. monthly nominations will begin at the beginning of the month and run until the 15th
2. from the 16th to the end of the month a poll setup will be used to vote
3. users will not be able to view the results until the contest has ended each month
4. the user with the most votes wins bike of the month
NOTE: each month, a forum moderator will setup the nomination and voting threads. Please do not start one yourself as it may become quite confusing.
Small prizes may be awarded depending on availability. If you'd like to donate an item to be awarded please speak with a moderator.
Lastly, January through November we will vote on "bike of the month", in December we will vote for "bike of the year" based on all the 11 winners of "bike of the month" throughout the year.
