Its that time again, let the nominations begin for October '09! Remember , ANYONE can nominate a member.

RULES:

To be eligible to compete in the ROTM, you must meet the following requirements:

-Must be a member for a month prior to the ROTM. (example: joined July 21st, eligible for September ROTM)
-Must have made at least 4 posts per month over the past two months prior to the ROTM OR at least 10 in the first month of membership for members joined only one month beforehand.
-Must have a post count of at least 13.
-Must have a photo gallery set up with at least one photos. How-to: Adding a Photo Gallery (http://www.chevroletforum.com/m_51137/tm.htm)
-Vehicle does not have to be <NOBR id=itxt_nobr_5_0 style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-SIZE: 100%; COLOR: darkgreen">Chevrolethttp://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/2.gif</NOBR> (http://www.chevroletforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14821#), but must share a GM platform with a Chevrolet vehicle. For instance, a Saturn Aura may compete because it shares the Malibu platform, but a Pontiac Solstice may not because it has no Chevrolet counterpart.
-Chevrolet-powered watercrafts, motorcycles, ATVs, Dune Buggies, and cars of a different make are not allowed to compete.
-Dragsters and other race cars may compete if they have a Chevrolet body.

OTHER ELIGIBILITY REGULATIONS

-If you have won the ROTM, you will not be eligible to compete in the next 2 ROTMs. For instance, if you win April ROTM, you can't compete again until the July ROTM.
-You can win a maximum of 2 ROTM titles within one calendar year. After you have won two ROTMs, you are not eligible again until the next January. If your 2nd win comes in the Dec. ROTM, you are not eligible again until the February ROTM.



ROTM PROCESS

-A nominations thread will be opened on the first of every month.
-Any member can nominate an eligible member's vehicle. (you may NOT nominate yourself) -Nominate by saying "I nominate BigJoe123".
-A maximum of two nominations can be made by one member, if voting has not started by the 6th day, members who have made two nominations may make another to get things going.
-Please PM THE PERSON YOU ARE NOMINATING.
-Once nominated, the nominee must accept or decline.
-Up to 5, but no less than 3 candidates may compete.
-If 5 candidates are chosen before the 15th, voting begins immediately.
-A picture from the participants gallery will be used in the voting thread.
-Participants may send a PM to EvansBlue with the picture you want in the voting thread if you wish. (picture cannot be any larger than 640x480px). If the PM is not sent, then one will be selected from the competitor's gallery.
-Voting will stay open until the time posted on the last day of the month.
-Once the voting is over, the winner will write up a quick bio of his vehicle including all modifications, vehicle history, etc., and send it via e-mail to me.


IN THE EVENT OF A TIE

In the eventuality that a tie occurs in the voting the tie will be broken based on a vote by the staff. In the eventuality that a member of staff is one of the tied contestants, then there will be a 3-day-long tie-breaker vote held in the ROTM section.


RULES FOR DISCUSSION

-Anything posted within the ROTM threads that is not strictly related to the ROTM or the rides and their featured modifications therein is not allowed and will be deleted.
-Any flaming, including ridiculing someone's ride, will be deleted.
-Please keep your vote confidential. Its not a big deal to share it, but lets not make a habit of it.

brent & mike ...are you all trying to make me laugh...my blazer....that thing is beat to s**t....i thought you both were having fun @ my expense..jk.....if it were in there i wouldn't even vote for it....:p...then again i wonder if i should just accept and take one for the team...:confused:.....


what about mudmaniac?i spoke with him today and wanted to nom his sweet hoe because of the host of mods and upgrades, and it sees much action....like his run this weekend with that newely finished sas....he didn't think he was eligable but his last one was a few months back...whatcha think???

Its all for fun, go ahead, nominate whomever you like. :cool:

I'll accept if you need me to, I think that would be all SUVs so far.
I'll need to take another pic to post with the new axle, maybe a before and after a run in the mud this weekend. I think Hammer has me on the clean look so maybe I'll go for the "MudManiac" look.

My bad Red, I'm not sure if your Silverado or the K5 was nominated.

it was looking like a theme of suv's,i would like to find another member with a similar ride

Go with the Blazer Red, old school won last month.

i nominated his ride out of pure love for these things....he never thought he could pull it off...he did and was in the middle of moving:D...where is mike @ anyway?he's been a little quiet lately...must be getting settled in..


hey george i think the year of my blazer was considered a V-10...and not k5?...what ya think..

it was looking like a theme of suv's,i would like to find another member with a similar ride

lol, maybe we can start calling you the "Nominator". I hear ya, at least we caught back up from the nominees that declined.:cool:

Not familiar with V-10 except the motor, I have an 87 K5 that I'm going to use for trail riding now that the Tahoe is back in action. I have loved the K5 as long as I can remember and my favorites are the early 70 models.

the reason im saying is when i go to the auto part store they always say do you have the k-10...i say no it's an 8....but parts for this blazer come up as v-10...trippy...

my favorite blazer which i sunk almost all my savings that year into her was my 74 full convert...to this day i wish i knew then what i know now.....

Yep, the full convertbles are the best.
This is my favorite picture of my Tahoe before the axle swap.

Notice how patriotic I am with the parade flags on the front.

This is a video of my very 1st mud bog with some intresting commentary from my son.

Long live the k5! their bad ass and have that nice short wheel base. I love my k5 to death, Its a convertable truck, how cool is that? I just gotta lift mine...

You have a nice K5 frickenbored, it has lasted a lot longer that your signature did. LOL
I had a feeling that wouldn't fly.
