Welcome to the brand new contest! Contrary to semi-popular belief, while this contest is based in part off Member of the Month, this contest exists for an entirely different purpose. While it is true that all members here on MLK are fans of at least one of the movies, this contest exists to point out those who continue to show their love for the movies by their activities on MLK whether it be through art, writing, or just general activity on the forum that displays just how much of a fan they are.
The rules are at least initially going to start off as rather simple, and hopefully they will be that all be required for a smooth running and likable contest. The rules are:
[quote]* Each month, members will nominate up to four members who they consider active enough fans to be considered "fans of the month".
* New members can be nominated one month after their joining the forum. If it's TLK fan of the month, it won't necessarily be fair to allow one-week old members to win compared to the older members who might not necessarily have a storage box of new ideas ready to be opened upon joining MLK.
* When nominating a member, provide a reason why they are being nominated. Unfortunately, a "I nominate 'X' because they are a great TLK fan!" will not be accepted. Try to provide a link or even a reference as to why they are a fan. Also, keep references for those that are on MLK. It won't be very nice to have members be nominated for something they did off MLK. Keep it on the forum please.
*The contest renews itself after each new year. If a member won in a year, they cannot be nominated again ultil the next year
These are all the rules I think are needed. Please don't force me to add more. [/quote]
Now time for the nominations! Because this is both for January and February, each member can nominate up to eight members, or post two nominations of up to four members.
Let the new contest begin!
