How ROTM works

I have been getting a number of complaints lately about members entries not chosen for ROTM.

This is how it works. I count the pictures. Say there are 25 entries, I PM a random site member and ask them to choose 4 numbers between 1 and 25. The numbers chosen by that member are the ones then entered in the contest. That particular member doesnt even know what they are choosing the numbers for. I dont tell them until after the give me the chosen numbers. to guarantee its fair.

Thats it plain and simple.

Thank you

Well said Dave, I think most of the crying is from the regular members that submitt and don't get chosen. They know how it works but are just jealous they didn't get picked and just want to be post ho.... I know I did during the July poll.

Your user title says it all.

Your Whambulance is here.
