Hahaha!!

Yeah, Garm, I hear you have quite the beast in your garage! Maybe we should give Garm YOTM for August and be done with it?

I was actually considering entering my completely stock Yaris, just for laughs

jekqmb · 09-01-2009, 01:01 AM

No there will be a YOTM in each class.....We could just do it like most forums and let everyone go cut throat, haha. Im trying here, lets see how the different classes go for October, then use feedback from there for future YOTM voting! It would work perfect if we had a Yaris of the month section! Then we could post up the different classes people could enter in!

voting should definitely be secret. ive seen how lame it gets when people on the rsx forum have a commentary on the voting progress as the week goes on.

this is gonna be a lot of fun. im looking forward to it

LOL i'm so with u on this bro...

speaking for myself only, i feel like there should be no categories, no voting, no photo quality stipulations...no complications...

the moderators should just choose an entry each month from users who submit a small profile and some photos and that's that...

i mean, as Garm said, we will all enjoy reading the thread, it's not like there is prize money on the line...it's just for fun and about putting a little spotlight on a user each month so we all pay a little extra attention to them and their yaris...just seems to me like this is all more trouble than it's worth and it takes away from the overall goal of the yotm idea...

just my 2...

I'm with you.

But I guess it took us a long time to just argue about it, and one person took initiative so we're gonna try his way instead, let's keep in an open mind, it must might work

If it doesnt', then we can try something else.

jekqmb · 09-01-2009, 01:23 AM

Okay check the first page out guys, i updated it...Let me know what you think, ill change it if need be! At least its a start, im trying to take all this feedback in, lol. I think its going to work out great though!

Okay ill bring it down, let me know what you guys think will be good for each class! I would like to here it from some others, also the voting will be done with a Poll and you cant see who is winning until you submit your vote.

completely agree.

dont think nominations cause favoritism but a secret pm style nomination and secret voting system would probably end up being the most ideal

photo quality counts? *calls up photographer*

jekqmb · 09-01-2009, 01:28 AM

Haha im sure some will actually do that...

PETERPOOP · 09-01-2009, 01:31 AM

I like PK's three class suggestion...

"a). Unmodded
b). Slightly Modded (i.e wheels , tips and anything cosmetic)
c). Heavily Modded (i.e turbos, single seaters, race ready, etc)"

However, class C could also be someone with Airrunner suspension (808_Yaris), and not just boosted people in this class.

Awesome.... Well if you guys dont mind im going to steal this and these will be the classes!

PETERPOOP · 09-01-2009, 01:38 AM

I guess it's how you what to look at it. I would call it heavily modded since as of now there is only one airrunner Yaris in the US. It's not like throwing on an axleback? But Idk

jekqmb · 09-01-2009, 01:39 AM

Okay im going to delete this thread, everything is going to be in the Feedback thread, im going to create a new October YOTM thread Tommorow!

AdeJong 03 · 09-01-2009, 01:42 AM

dont delete this thread, it might have info that we may need to refer to later

and i agree with pk but why not just have a poll in which the results are hidden until voting ends? that would be FARRRR easier

jekqmb · 09-01-2009, 01:42 AM

Alright, lets do that then, we need to nominate 3 people to count votes...1 person for each class!

jekqmb · 09-01-2009, 01:43 AM

Or 3 people who want to do it! Then everyone can PM me their vote count and ill post the results and update!
