It's that time again.
Actually, I am running behind.

While we are voting on the September Member of the Month it occurred to me that, now that this has been going on for a year, I would remove my self-imposed ban on letting a past winner be in the later polls.
That said, I've been playing with the idea of "themes" for future months: all-women; all-one-certain-weapon; all from one division...
any ideas?
This is, after all, just a mildly amusing diversion.
I was also considering having some T-shirts made locally for each month's winner, starting in October.
Any ideas what it should say?

As you said, it's merely a mildly amusing diversion. I think it ought to be open every time. Whoever wins, wins. Democracy in action.

I agree in principal, but I really don't want to have to type in all 143 member names for a poll on who is most popular. Even in a democracy we reduce most elections to pre-selected candidates.
Of course, I would certainly allow victory to go to a "write in" if enough members posted votes for one and it exceeded the votes of the most successful of the selected candidates.

I wasn't suggesting that it be open for just everything and everyone each month, Schlager. That would be royal mess!
I WAS suggesting that you, as the forum's chief honcho, post a category each month (Coach, Competitor, Armorer, Trainer, Soccer Mom/Dad, Male, Female, Foil, Epee, Sabre, wheel chair, SCA, Classical, Oriental, most posts, old farts, kids, nicest, biggest jerk, names that begin... or end... with vowels/consanents... etc.); And leave it open for anyone and every one to vote on whoever. You could post a few choices, but/or leave it open for a write in vote.
You could even have a "request-a-poll" poll if you wanted.

Wow! I'm flattered! I'm sorry I haven't posted lately and did nothing to earn it - I've spent the last three months learning my new job, so my internet presence pretty much floored itself
