Welcome to 420 Magazine's Member of the Month Contest!
420 Magazine would like to include not only our valued growers, but also more of our non-growing members in this contest. We are by no means excluding growers from the Member of the Month Contest, but we feel that our Plant and Nug Contests are already serving these members pretty well. Please help and support us in this effort.
Specifically, we're looking to thank those members that help and support our site in so many under recognized ways, such as:
Nominations are accepted from the 1st until the 14th at midnight PST every month. Approved nominations will be posted shortly after midnight PST and, at that time, the polls will open through midnight PST on the last day of the month to vote for a winner.
Please follow the above guidelines to propose a nomination and do not post or discuss nominations in the contest thread. Nominations and/or suggestions of nominations in the contest thread will be deleted without notice.
All winners receive "Member of the Month" title and the following Prize Package:
420 Magazine: 420 Magazine Lighter, 420 Magazine Magnet, 420 Magazine Stickers
Foods Alive: Organic Toasted Hemp Seeds
Sierra Natural Science: 217C Spider Mite Control - 1 Quart Mix Pouch
Shipping fees may apply to some packages shipped outside of the U.S.
You are responsible for any additional fees applied by customs.
Additional Details On Prize Shipping & Customs Duties
Monthly winners are automatically eligible for our prestigious "Member of the Year" contest, held in January.
Contest Guidelines:
1. Members must have at least 50 posts to be entitled to vote.
2. 420 Magazine staff members submit nominees and rationale in the contest thread.
3. Promotion (i.e. campaigning) for yourself or a friend, or any attempt at voting more than one time per person (i.e. multiple user names, etc.) is considered cheating and is prohibited. Promotion also includes family and friends who register a new account for voting purposes. Campaigning in any form - including but not limited to mentioning the entry in any thread outside the contest, a signature link to the entry and campaigning via PMs - will result in the entry being removed from the month's contest. A second instance, either in a different contest during the same month or in any future contest, will attract a lifetime ban from all future contests. General encouragement to vote in all the contests is fine, as long as it's not excessive or crossing the line into campaigning. Any post which explicitly or implicitly encourages members to vote for a specific entry is not.
4. Members cannot nominate themselves.
5. Members may only win this title once per calendar year.
6. Staff members from this or any other cannabis forum/community can not be nominated.
7. In accepting the Member of the Month title, prize(s), and the respect of the members, the winner agrees to wear his/her title with honor and to continue to set the example with his/her actions and posting behavior. To retain the Member of the Month title, the winner must remain compliant with contest rules and site guidelines.
If anyone has any questions or problems with ANY of the entries in ANY of our contests, please speak up publicly in the respective contest thread, before the end of the contest or forever hold your peace. Once a winner is announced, that will be the end of discussion, there will be no take backs, unless we made a clerical error.
Contests Are Legitimate: Now that votes are publicly visible, it should be obvious who is voting. We have endless ways of discovering cheating and are always successful. If you are caught cheating, your entry will be deleted and you'll be called out in the public thread, visible to everyone. Reason being that in the past, when we removed the offending entry without any announcement (to help minimize embarrassment for the member), it often led to uninformed (or worse, misinformed) members questioning our motives and calling us censorship nazi's. More often than not, the cheater themselves would claim innocence, causing a higher workload for our staff. For these reasons, we now alert the community of what happened, to save all the confusion and massive workload on our team.

@Carcass
Hello Growstars, I really wanted to end 2023 acknowledging this legend, but it was Azi’s time to shine - which was well overdue given how much support that SIPaholic gives us growers. But again I would like to nominate a man I consider to be 420 Magazine royalty. While I think InTheShed sits at the head of our forum table, this absolute grow legend would definitely sit to his right.
I hope you will consider makingDecemberJanuary his time to be acknowledged and celebrated for all the good he does for 420 Magazine in supporting Rob’s mission. Carcass has proven himself to not only be a magical grower, he is the creator of grow inventions. And he is so generous when sharing his grow knowledge. But this old dog is all about learning new tricks. He watches other great growers closely in order to learn new ways to achieve better grows. It didn't take Azi long to convert yet another SIPper. Lol!
Carcass quite simply has changed the way many in here grow. And if you want it, he will mentor you with such a happy heart. He has literally hand held me through multiple grows. I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, so often I need things explained, then re explained, then a diagram lol, and carcass is always so obliging even with diagrams. And while I can be as dumb as a rock, I also have this stupid confidence that always outweighs my ability too, so many times I've not listened and my grow has gone pear shaped and carcass’s response is always the same, no judgment, kindness and encouragement.
My grow goal is always to achieve that beautiful CarCanopy carcass is celebrated for. And while I'm getting closer, I still haven't yet got there. Im thinking by 2025 it will be my time to shine.
Thank you carcass, for all you do to help, whether that be sharing your grows, talking us through the steps, coming to our rescue when we send up the 420 MAG Bat signal with the @, or sharing your punny lame arsed dad jokes. Win or lose, you're a winner to me Xo
