I think we've been doing the nominations since April. We used to have two rounds of voting, and it was just too much. This way keeps it a little simpler to help get a clear winner.

Not sure how having members pick a car they like to be in the running is hard. To have a small hand full of people pick what *they* like seems like favoritism. There are many members that have great cars, but if the people picking them decide amongst them selves they don't like the car, then the members are not given a fair chance.

The only members typically excluded are those that are not in good board standing. Posting some pics and being a normal member in good standing seem like fair enough requirements.

So, because I got in trouble for sitting there doing nothing I have no chance? OK, I understand now.

Being one recorded board warning shy of banned is not good board standing.

If you have an issue, please PM a staff member.

Danthurs, you CLEARLY have no interest in this site, and your repeated attempts of you and your fellow members at your site to create false member profiles here as well as to clearly spam our COTM is ridiculous.

I've kept pretty quiet on this whole issue, but your holier-then-thou attititude and sarcasm has reached the end.

Any COTM winner must display certain levels of participation, be in good standing and clearly be active as a member at Pontiac Bonneville Club. Going back to your site and whining and complaining about Pontiac Bonneville Club is getting really really old.

There have been other BC members achieving COTM nomination status here because our level of site discrimation is nearly zero. Get over it.
